Halloween party searching.

It's hard to find a good halloween party around here (or at least one that won't cost shitloads of money). I googled parties for my state and nothing with too much detail came up. I could only guess a handful of the parties that looked interesting were for children (especially since they had a chaperon special price... ugh).  Others are either too far away or look stupid. Or worse, have already happened.

Hay Rides and Corn Mazes just don't do it for me, which is the majority of the halloween events that I scanned through. I just never really cared for people to jump out at me for a scare or make a bunch of loud noises. And wandering through a corn maze... ... just seems stupid. My sister and mother had been to them and mentioned how there was hardly anything to them other than trying to find your way out. Big whoop.

I'm a bit mad at a friend of mine, who had gone to a radio show's halloween party and never mentioned it once to me. Shows how good a friend he really is, since I've told him before I'd love to be invited to events more often, yet he never mentions them until after he goes, and how much fun it was.


 Not that I have my green Ness costume together yet anyway, but I do have a back up of a knight costume I had for years (cheap looking fabric, but it works well enough). The yellow-and-orange-striped shirt remains elusive.

My old college has nothing going on either, and the "party" friends I had have either moved too far away, or I haven't been in touch with for awhile. My best friend doesn't like to travel too far and is about as social as I am, so I have no help from her. My cousin who I am close to has been a zombie since great-grandma died, not to mention i feel like we are growing apart so not bothering with her (not to mention she's always freaking busy). I may end up just caving in, and asking my sister if she mind me tagging along. Which I think she will since she wants to pick up guys, and it feels weird to do that with her younger brother around (And I feel the same way about picking up someone with her around). Not to mention, I like to have a friend nearby so I can fall on them when I get bored, and my sister is not the person I want to be chatting with.

I don't know why I want to go to a party so bad, considering I suck at socializing at them usually. Guess I just want to get the fuck out of the house and socialize with people around my age. Maybe I'll do what i did last year, and just go to the arcade in costume. At least there is something to do there.

...and that is my whiny rant.

  4. Yeah. I wish I was invited to at least 1 party. Nope, Everyone just pretends I dont exist or something. No worries, just have a party by yourself!

  5. Just go to the bars and meet people. It's never easier than with a mask on your face!

  6. I'm the opposite...I get invited to parties, but I really don't want to go. I'll spend the day today working and doing homework, like pretty much every other day.

  7. To be honest, going to parties where you don't know most of the people there is usually not as fun a night as going somewhere where you've known everybody forever. That's about the only tip I have on parties.

    Starts with an "S", ends in "tudying". XP
