Halloween in November! or The Return of the Lion Lady


So perhaps my "Sad Little Pumpkin" post was speaking too soon. Last night I went to a Halloween party sponsored by the International Students Network. So basically there was a Halloween party about equivalent to a College Halloween Party (think: half-way between Rhodes Halloween and Radnor Halloween, with more boys, just as much girl kissing and (slightly) less latex body paint. But just as many Americans. For non-Bryn Mawr Alums, I have no analogy). It was a bit above lame though certainly not memorable.

Among the highlights were my orientation leaders dressed as a Vampiress and a Dentist (as an added layer of meaning, she is from Romania), the fact that it was in a club called "de Catacombes" which is actually in the basement of a church, watching people from my classes awkwardly/drunkenly make out (sometimes it's nice to be a part of the gossip mill) and the perfection of my Lion Lady costume, which New York friends might remember as a mixture of the Deer Phenomenon Party and the Magical Realism Party outfits. So I saw some orange christmas lights, saw some wacky costumes and they even played "Thriller." And so, I present my costume:



It's really more of a concept costume of a predatory cat. Yes, I only said that because I am an asshole.




That's my tail. Scroll to the last post to see my (engorgeous?) mouth/ makeup.
