My favorite holiday


Halloween is definitely my favorite holiday and all of my friends know it. At home, I threw a Halloween party every year and it was something we all looked forward to, so it will be a little weird to celebrate in Columbia instead of in Spartanburg. I already started my celebration by attending "Rave to the Grave," a Halloween dance party hosted by the Columbia Hall and Capstone residents hall associations. As our president, Chris Brown was one of the main organizers of the event, so I went to support him and had a blast! I am known for my outrageous Halloween costumes, so this year I decided to dress as one of my favorite pop stars: the off-the-wall Lady GaGa. The majority of my costume came from home (this idea came to me over a month ago after seeing GaGa perform at the MTV Video Music Awards) and the only thing I had to buy was the blonde wig. Dressing up gave me a confidence boost and I was not afraid to bust a move on the dance floor, even though I did not win the costume contest.
Tomorrow night I am going to see "Dracula: Ballet with a Bite" at the Koger Center and hopefully going to see Carolina Productions-sponsored showing of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" on the big screen at the Russell House on midnight on Halloween.
Once Halloween is over, I have another holiday to look forward to: my suitemate Taylor's birthday on Monday!
