Halloween Party Pooper Is Halloween really worth spending hours upon hours getting ready and walking door to door just for candy? Well, by personal experience, going trick or treating is not worth the outcome by any means. -- I was ten minutes away from finishing my mime makeup before heading over to my friend, Emily, to go trick or treating. As I made the triangular shape around my eye with black eye makeup, my hand shook vigorously due to my nerves. I did not know why I was so nervous, but I knew that I befouled my makeup. So I had to wash that section of my face off with some noxious soap and water, and use my really expensive white base makeup again. The makeup I used for this costume cost more than a huge box of candy from Costco. It …show more content…
I walked over to my mirror and noticed that my makeup was already cracking like a bunch of shattered glass. I ran to my bed and placed my wool-like beret on my head and slipped on my sparkly, black flats which I thought were going to be comfortable to walk in for two hours or so. When I finally said bye to my mother, I sped walk to the traffic light that separates Emily's neighborhood from mines, which felt like forever to get to. My hand found it's place on the pedestrian crosswalk button, which was oddly satisfying to me. As the traffic light turned bright red, the people who were walking pass me stared at me for a couple seconds before noticing what I was. So I just had to wave at them, since mimes don't talk in any situation. Meanwhile, I reached my destination, Emily's house. I waited outside for five minutes straight is the cold, windy weather. My beret almost blew off my head since it was so windy. I could barely see anything since there were no street lights, nor no one's light was on. The only light source around me was the fireworks a couple of guys decided to blow up. At this point I was more scared than my sister when she sees any type of bug. I looked around my surroundings, and finally I see a human being creeping out of the house I was standing in front of. Emily has shown her …show more content…
But in the end, we're walking to stranger's house for candy overall. When we finally got there, we weren't disappointed at all. There was a big bag of candy that was worth more than five houses of trick or treating. However, when we left that house, we were back to where we started. Barely anyone was giving out candy on the streets that we first were walking at. An hour in, and we decided to go to a different neighborhood. And so we walked towards our other friend's neighborhood. Once we stepped foot on the pavement sidewalk, it was raining candy. There was candy coming from left and right. The best house out of them all was the one beside Jones Park. A little old lady gave out drinks instead of candy! But one of my biggest frustrations while going trick or treating was my shoes. My flats, I thought I'd be comfortable in, kept slipping off of my foot like Cinderella's precious glass slipper. It was not a fun night. And to top it all off, there was a guy that dressed up like a clown, and if you know me, I despise clowns with all my might. I am afraid of clowns to the extent where I get on the verge of crying when I come face to face with them. Plus, there was a guy with an axe and a mask in the middle of the yard, staring at us. When Emily and I got our candy from that house, we ran,
