Happy Halloween

I hope you all had a great Halloween. I went to a HUGE Halloween fair. I'm not really into candy, but I loved taking pictures! I should have taken more, but most of them turned out bad, and I gave up trying to take pictures after the first 3 hours or so. (it was from 5-9) 

But first a picture of my Barriss Costume: I debated about this for a while, and then I just went with broadcasting my paranoia to the whole world.
Censor bar! :D If you magnify, it says "hi." From this picture you can deduce-
I am roughly the size and shape of a human female.
I have a white wall.

But seriously, I loved my costume. Though at the fair people kept stepping on it! I drew Barriss's tattoos with Sharpie and eyeliner. I'm curiously obsessed with the ones on my hands. I haven't washed them off yet!


These are pics from the fair. I saw at least 5 Darth Vaders, two Jango Fetts(the cheap cloth kind) and 10 clone troopers(the cheap cloth kind with the plastic helmet.) And my brothers claim to have seen one TCW Anakin Skywalker with the cloth face. Scaryyyy.... 


Otherwise I just took pictures of people I knew and things that interested me:
 This is one seriously dedicated Commander Fox fan. If the helmet doesn't fit, wear it as a hat!




 I don't know if she's in Padme's picnic gown or something else.


This guy had a real plastic Gree costume. And blaster! Nice departure from the cheap-cloth variety. I didn't get to talk to him though.


Look at this!
(collective Awwwwww...)
Poor kids, though.


This Jedi looked really creeped out when I took his picture. And all the times I saw him after that. I guess he thought I was stalking him or something.

 A blond Leia. Her costume was beige rather than white, but good try.


Most of the pictures I took didn't turn out very well, but whatever! How was your Halloween? :D

    It's kind of hard to see the costume, but from the looks of it, you did an awesome job! Congrats!

    Now if only I could make a Quinlan Vos or Kyle Katarn costume with the same amount of quality...

    Oh, and those pics are fine. Funny too. I especially like the one with the guy who's wearing the kid's clone helmet on his head. Classic! :P

    That Commander Fox guy is awesome! :D
    At my church's harvest festival, we had ONE Star Wars person....a little kid who was dressed up as Rex. I freaked out when I saw him. "Finally! A Star Wars character!"
    His dad said, "Yeah....we're all Star Wars fans at our house."
    "Me too!"
    He looked a little surprised at my sudden outburst of fanness. (That is now a word)

    Of course, as we're driving home, I see two brothers out trick-or-treating in our neighborhood; one's Vader and the other's a Jedi. :3

three amazing--and relatively little known--psalms

So I'm reading Psalms in the Bible right now. Well, Psalms is one of the three places I read from. I'm reading the Bible all the way through and read two chapters from three places--the Old Testament, the middle of the Old Testament, and the New Testament--every day. I'm in Deuteronomy and Romans in the other sections, but in the middle I'm still right where I started from-Psalms. Cause Psalms is really really long. I was getting kind of tired of Psalms(which isn't really the right attitude to be reading the Bible in). But I realized there are some really breathtaking passages in Psalms, and I'm glad I read them. These are my three favorites: *Buck Forester on Flikr Psalm 65 This one is about God's spectacular creation. What mighty praise, O God,      belongs to you in Zion. We will fulfill our vows to you, 2       for you answer our prayers.      All of us must come to you. 3  Though we are overwhelmed by our sins,      you forgive them a

Howl's Moving Castle book analysis

“I feel ill. I'm going to bed, where I may die.” ― Howl, upon having a cold. I've decided to call them "book analysis" because they're not really reviews that tell you how much I liked the book, rather,  me taking the book apart and looking at different aspects of it for my own entertainment. Read on. Also, read Howl's Moving Castle. This is the original cover of Howl's Moving Castle and I have got to say it is the UGLIEST thing I have ever seen. I like the new one much better. Ahem. First of all, I should point out that Howl's Moving Castle is a children's book. However, I like to hold all books I read to the same standard, after all, they're written by adults. I had biased expectations of Howl's Moving Castle from the start, because I kept hearing from several sources how amazing, how fantastic, how hilarious and how romantic the book was, and hearing the perfectly gorgeous soundtrack by Joe Hizazi(somethin

Ciel Phantomhive vs. Artemis Fowl

  Don't laugh. XD The similarities between the two characters are so distinct and obvious that comparison is inevitable for anyone who's read/watched both series. I seriously thought when I first noticed Black Butler(more popularly referred to as Kuroshitsuji) that it was literally an anime adaption of Artemis Fowl.  Other people have read Artemis Fowl and thought "CIEL HAS A CLONE??!?" So I thought I'd outline some of the differences and analyze who would win. XD Similarities: Appearance:  This is the first similarity, and one of the most major, because if they didn't look so darn alike I don't think the comparison would have been as striking. The above picture of Artemis is a fanart, because there aren't really any good pictures of Artemis, and the manga style makes it more obvious. They are both from the British Isles and have black hair and blue eyes. Both of them lose/change/switch an eye resulting in two different colors.
