Yayyyy Halloween

2008-09-16T10:50:24Z

.

So, Endrin (Schwan, Anthony, Cello) will be playing a show at The Cup in Linden, NJ on November 1st. It'll be a belated (by one day) Halloween party style show. They'll be playing all Misfits songs and of course all of them are going to dress up like the Misfits. You can't get in unless you're in a costume. This makes me super excited because I haven't been able to dress up for Halloween in 2 years and it's my absolute favorite holiday. Every year my roommates and I used to have Halloween parties with awesome themes (80's themed, video game themed, etc.) but we've all kind of gone our seperate ways and now live in small apartments with our boyfriends or other friends.

I need some assistance in deciding on a costume. It has to be epic and perfect and unique and also, inexpensive because I've gotta make up for the two years I failed to participate. I've got two ideas which I will detail with pics and such and I need TONS of input to make this decision. Don't be intimidated by the apparent length of what's behind the cut (SHAUN!), it's mostly lists and pics.

Please give a detailed opinion of my ideas in the comments section (or on my Facebook, since I'll be posting a link to this entry there). Also, any ideas you have, shoot them at me but here's the criteria for my costume:

1. Must be inexpensive (i.e. I can make it from found clothing or with things I can get at a thrift store, craft store, eBay etc.)
2. Must be totally unique (i.e. no "sexy maid" or any of that crap, princesses or witches, etc.)
3. I prefer "nerdy" type costumes or weird costumes (i.e. video game characters, movie characters, comic characters, a cup of yogurt, etc. Anyone who knows me should realize this, one year I was Tank Girl, another I was Ada Wong from RE3. Tomb Raider is an absolute NO, done WAY too much).

So my first two ideas are Batman related. Being a Batman fan since I was old enough to read the comics and watch PG movies, it's almost baffeling that I haven't chosen a Batman character but I think this year is a good time to do it. Seeing as the last two movies have been mind-blowing, I'm sure there will be other Batman characters this year but I can handle that.

Cat Woman and Bat Girl are way too over done so my first thought was Poison Ivy. She'd be pretty easy to do and recognizable (no explaining my costume to people who hadn't played RE3, like last time). Thing is, the Batman movie with this Poison Ivy :

...Sucked hardcore. Although I like this costume a lot, I can't be caught referencing something so goddamn shitty. So it's gotta be based off of the comic book Poison Ivy. I was thinking of basing it along the lines of this picture :

Her costume is pretty well done. Although I would modify it in these ways:

1. Black boots with various fake leaves of a darker, less bright green glued in various spots with fake vines connecting them.
2. Fishnet tights over top of the green tights with a few fake leaves sewn or pinned onto the fishnets.
3. Maybe a sleeveless short green dress for me, since I don't know how comfy I would be in a leotard, with fake leaves and vines sewn onto it.
4. Some leaves and vines on the arms making their way up to the neck and upper chest area with paints.
5. Long green gloves.
6. A super long, curly haired red wig, for me, my hair doesn't grow too fast.
7. Green eye shadow and fake lashes to complete the "I'll lure you in then murder you" look.
8. I'd keep the red lipstick and the flower in the hair.

I'd also be sparing with the leaf decoration everywhere but the dress.

The Pros and Cons:

P - easy to do, recognizable, fairly simplistic to make, I have most of what I'd need to make this costume.
C - I need my glasses to see and I'd look a little strange with them on, there's a 50% chance of another Poison Ivy being present.

My second thought was Harley Quinn. She's not so recognizable for people who haven't seen Batman cartoons or read the comics but I think most people would catch who I am if I were to choose this costume. There's an issue though with her standard outfit. If you Google professional style (expensive as shit) "cosplay" costumes, you get things like this:

Looks pretty good right? The problem is, a cat suit like the one you see in the second pic is super expensive. I mean, anyone who isn't obese looks good in a cat suit. It tucks the bad stuff, excentuates the good stuff, etc. Now I'm not that conceited but I don't want to look dumpy and lame in my costume. Harley costume you buy online for under a $100 look like:

...fucking cotton pajamas. Not my deal. So I figured I could do my own less expensive, more original version of what I think a Nolan style Harley would look like (although she'll never be in the movies if Nolan still has good taste, she doesn't exist without Joker). A short background for you non-Batman nerds, Harley Quinn used to be The Joker's psychologist at Arkham Asylum. Through a series of events she fell insanely in love with him , thus becoming Harley Quinn ( yeah, nerd, I know). My version would be based off of a "business attire gone awry" style. Everything would still be black and red but it would be like this:

1. White or red collared blouse with random diamonds drawn on it.
2. Black vest over white/red blouse.
3. Short red or white tie with a diamond drawn on it.
4. Black, pencil style skirt, half of it painted red with correpsonding large black and red diamonds on it.
5. Red tights with black fishnets over.
6. Black ankle boots.
7. White braceletes and black fingerless gloves, red and black nail polish.
8. Bleach blonde hair in short pigtails (this is Harley's haircolor and style for those who don't know).
9. White face paint all over, black around the eyes, red lipstick.
10. A smaller red and black jester hat to keep the character as obvious as possible.

The Pros and Cons:

P - easy to make seeing as I have most everything I'd need, I can wear my glasses and attribute it to the "business attire gone awry" look, probably recognizable, and not likely to be another Harley present.
C - face paint will most definitely make my face break out the next day, may not be recognizable to ANYONE and it's fucking annoying to explain your costume to someone.

That's all I have so far, all I have that's well thought-out anyways. I absolutely have to have feedback from several different people on this subject, it's GODDAMN IMPORTANT OK.

Thanks, lovers.

I don't know if any of ya'll have Flickr accounts, but there's a pretty cool group on that site called I Crush Your Head.

The subject of the group is pretty self explanatory (and awesome). You post pictures of you crushing various vegetable, minerals and/or animals, in classic Head Crusher style.

Here's the link if any of you Flickrers are interested:

After dilly-dallying for about 2 months, I'm finally getting around to putting pictures from Italy up on my Flickr page. Here's the link.

Florence. Yay!

If you don't have a Flickr account, just make one. It's free and it takes 2 seconds. DO IT! I won't be re-uploading these pictures to LiveJournal because I am lazzzyyy. I haven't even uploaded nearly half of the ones I have onto Flickr, so keep checking back on my page, if you are interested.

Take it deep. Swallow gallons.

Red Hot Chilli Peppers Concert + Idiots who can't hold their beer in their plastic cups + The same idiots who think beer makes them tough + Girls who wear camoflauge pants = ...

Mashed Potato has a fight and I almost get into one.

I don't even want to elaborate the entire ridiculous story let's just say Mashy left with the satisfaction of kicking the guy in the chest and I left with the satisfaction of watching Soldier Girl drunkenly fall down the beer-slick stairs of the Continental Airlines Arena. Why do the massive amounts of assholes always have to ruin concerts? Everytime I've ever gone to a REAL concert, not just a small venue, I have wanted to beat the living fuck out of someone. And usually, I hold my temper. Usually, I never show any kind of emotion, especially one like anger, without being pushed to the ultimate extreme. But these people....no...they aren't people...these wastes of air are so good at making me lose it.

And the real problem is, the first two times I was angry at a drunken moron, I held my tongue. I shoved the anger down, breathed deeply and remembered it wasn't worth it. The third time though, the initial aggression wasn't even directed at me until I chose to involve myself. I just sat there and watched this little whore in her beer soaked camoflauge pants try to start a fight between my freind and her fuck buddy at a concert nobody wanted to fight at. I normally hate almost all women, but these kind of chicks, I hate them the most. They get drunk and then they want to see their loser boyfreind try to impress them at another person's expense. So when I realized this was happening, my anger just completely soared and I chose to involve myself.

The short of it is, I was stopped at the brink of stomping the shit out of her little smirking face, and the violent things I would have done to her would have left her beyond recognition for the rest of her life. This is good because I don't want a record. This is bad because now I have tons of anger and aggression waiting to burst out of me. None of this anger even has a recognizable source or reason anymore, it's just an indistinguishable little black ball in my stomach. I feel like if I don't find a healthy and positive release for this aggression soon, somebody is going to do something small to make me snap and they are going to pay dearly. Don't get me wrong. I don't think I am tough shit. I know I am pretty small. But I'm also half Mexican, I fight dirty and if I lose my temper I go completely insane when I reach the edge of my anger. I don't feel any pain, I don't think clearly and I don't care about consequences. And who knows, this time I snap, I could never come back to reality. I could stay completely insane.

Let's just hope the one who suffers my wrath is someone who deserves it, a fat born-again "christian" with a big mouth.

Decisions, decisions.

2006-10-06T10:33:36Z

This is a post that I need EVERYBODY to give their opinion on. And this is especially directed to you nerds on my friends list, I know there is quite a few of you out there.

This Halloween, as usual, Mariel, Danielle, myself and Sonny( the latest edition to our wholesome family) are throwing a costume party. The theme is Super Heros/Villians. This applies to all forms; video game characters, comic book characters, and movie characters. I have narrowed my choices down to three and I am entrusting my final decision to you guys. Look behind the cuts. I have provided visual aides and lots of information to help you make this LIFE OR DEATH DECISION for me.

Harley Quinn is my first, but most difficult to accomplish choice. I definitly want to be a villian. Other villians have been ruled out due to certain costume types I just don't have the body for, the drastic hair color, or the choice is too obvious(Catwoman). If you aren't aware of who she is, she was Joker's lady. Here is her WIKI. The problem is, the only costume I can find looks like this:

My goal is NOT to look like a clown in pajamas. I need a spandex/nylon type costume. I can't find one anywhere yet I know they exist :

I could probably only find costumes like that on a cosplay site for over 200.oo. I'm not rich. And I'm not one of those fat, annoying, cosplay tools. I could go for something like this:

...sans the " fuck me in the ass" pose. Considering it. I also have the choice of this Zentai fetishy spandexy thing on eBay but I don't know if that's my style. And a really gross muscle man is modeling it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ada is choice 2. She is from the Resident Evil series and my version choice is from RE4. Here is her WIKI. This is a pretty easy one to pull off :

I already have the hair, it just needs to be dyed back to black. I already have black high heels. I'd just need a leg holster, easy to find at any army/navy store. It would have to be a knife leg holster since I am deathly afraid of guns and don't even want to touch a toy one, but that's a small modification. I'd also need to get a skimpy redish japanese style dress. I found one on a cosplay site, an exact version, over 200.oo. Uh.... Hello, Goodwill!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

This is my backup. The Huntress was from the Batman comics, like Harley. She probably won't ever make it into any movies or anything but she was still kind of cool. WIKI TIME!. She is a pretty easy costume to pull off too :

I could do a variation of either of those costumes. It would only require some purple face paint, a spandex body suit which I could cut to my liking, some purple booty shorts, some more material to use to make her accessories and cape, and walla, you have The Huntress. I already have the black boots. But she is a lesser known character and you want to be recognized at a costume party. Especially since I am a " co-host" and I must live up to the traditional Sawyer-Collerd reputation for parties and costumes.

I seriously am losing sleep over this decision. Leave a comment, my preciouses.

Alright LiveJournal kids. I want an MP3 player. Mashed Potato suggested I research all of the available types/brands/etc. and then choose the one I get afterwards and I started to do that for about five minutes and then I got super fucking bored. So any of you that have MP3 players, feel free to comment with the kind you have, the features, and the pros and cons of owning your type.

Cause I'm lazy as hell.

Thanks.

He's right. I'm nuts. A little bit more than eccentric, I'd have to say. I'm wasting my time too. I'm wasting alot of time on something that will never come true.

So, I think I'm ready kids. I'm ready to become inebriated(sp?) with my new roommates and everyone who is invited to the house warming (liqouring) party that we are having on Sunday.

Adam Bond my dear freind, if you really love me, if you truly love me, you will purchase a bottle of merlot for me (funds provided by me of course and if you like I'll get you some whiskey). I want to become drunk and I want to make love. No, I don't want to have sexual intercourse. I want to make love to my new found freedom and the idea of living with two people who are the opposite of lame. I want to make love to all of it with a couple packs of cigarettes and some wine(and the gun shots I'll probably be hearing from the project across the street). Change is good and change always makes me happy.

-rant-

And Ulti, my internet lover, I saw that the ugly stupid mother fucker, Aaron Winadouche, I saw that he actually insulted you. This angers me and I hate him more than ever. I'm going to shank him right in his gut, just to let you know. I'm going to carve out that stupid mother fucking snake tattoo on his stupid mother fucking stomach. I mean with all that shit he did to me, that shit was pretty bad. But that was my fault to for being stupid, so I want to kill him but it would be over the line. But he insulted YOU. He signed his death warrant. I'm also going to punch out his big fucking teeth. He's given me a good reason now. A damn good reason.

I'm going to place the sites of a sniper rifle onto his knee caps as he's standing around some lame ranch style home trying to sell it to some lame old fools and I'm going to shoot them both out with one bullet. Straight through one side all the way to the other. Then as he lays on the ground writhing and screaming I'm going to knock his big fucking teeth down his throat with some brass knuckles. I'm then going to throw acid in his face. Then I shall sit smoking a carton of cigarettes as he screams and crys like the little bitch he is and put them out one by one all over his body. Finally, when I get tired of watching him suffer or he begins to fade from blood loss, which ever comes first, I will take that stupid fucking Need For Speed Underground game and break the cd in half so that it can be weilded as a shiv and carve out his lame snake tattoo from his belly. Then I'll watch him finally die. I'd use his body as a sled, but he's so repulsive I don't want to let too much of my body touch his. You can film if you want.

-end rant-

Liqour and jazz are going to eventually lead to my demise. But not anytime soon, loves. Not anytime soon.
