I'm just going to go ahead and say it now

I don't like halloween :T
Never did.
I never liked candy… And honestly, can you blame me? I grew up eating homemade puff pastries, tarts, cakes, and cookies, none of those box-mixes or "pillsbury crescent rolls." So I always found it strange growing up when kids in school would go apeshit for some jolly ranchers.
I also never like going to strangers doors or having strangers come to MY door. Part of that being that I was painfully shy as a child. I don't much appeal in wearing a costume either, I guess because I feel more like I'm playing dress up every day with my "regular" clothes. I'm sure it also didn't help that, while growing up, the only kid on my street closest to my age was a year older than me and a total brat. Also only two houses gave out anything, my neighbor and this jewish couple down the street who would give out either raisins or peppermints :T seriously? peppermints? What kind of kid wants to go to a house just to get a single peppermint? I always had to go just to be polite.
And oh, but I'm older now so I should go to halloween parties?
Yes, that is indeed down the street from my house. Statistics for 2010: 251 arrests, 488 citations, and 34 hospitalizations.
Me attending? How about no.
on the other hand… Paw… Hand. :T If I were to hypothetically go to a halloween party I'd wear my regular clothes and when anybody asks what my costume is I'll just say "Hi, I'm fierce *model pose*"
over and out,
Tonga

dressing up was always my favorite part ^..^ the candy was more of a welcome side-effect XD
