Halloween in Israel

Imagine being from a country where Halloween doesn't exist, and then seeing these idiots on the street trying to hail a cab....


Thanks to David's suggestion, I went as a "sexy crayon." I know. I know. I wasn't actually trying to be sexy. What I was trying to do was to poke fun at the fact that Halloween in America is really just an excuse for girls to dress like sluts. Sexy bunny, sexy cop, sexy nurse, sexy cheerleader. I heard that one year, Sarah Silverman went to a public party as sexy Hitler with the same purpose- to point out how stupid the sexy costumes are - whether or not I find that funny/offensive.....definitely going there.....

Anyways...

A good shot of my 'crayonness,' with Ella.


I did get one of the best compliments to date from one of my classmates (you might only understand that I think this is a compliment if you really know me):

Marie: Hey! Nice costume Candace! Did you make it yourself?
Me: Thanks! I did.
Marie: How'd you do it?
Me: It's a large tank top and I cut out the crayola part from a piece of cloth and sewed it on.
Marie walks around me to take a look at the whole outfit
Marie: Did you do something to the back? (Read: butt)
Me: No.
Marie: Oh.....um...
Me: Why?
Marie: ..........uh.......(giggles)....I just thought that you might have added padding or something? (covers her face in embarassment)
Me: That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said!
Marie: I mean....it comes out of nowhere and I've never noticed it before!

Baruch and Scott as Flight of the Conchords

I colored Jonah (Incredible Hulk) green.

My school hosted a party at Liquor Bar in Tel-Aviv which was fun...albeit SUPER crowded. Justin and Drew were the DJs. Some of my Israeli friends (mostly from the rugby team)also came..and one of them even came in costume! (as a doctor...hahhaha)

Alon, the flasher

And Ron Jeremy. Unfortunately the picture does not include the awesome shirt, or the large amounts of chest hair.
