hii besties it's HALLOWEEK BABEY!!!! sure, maybe thursday is an annoying day for halloween to land on but consider this: 2 WEEKENDS OF HALLOWEEN!!!

behold my costumes

oop bedroom reveal

day 1: SATURDAY oct 26th i dressed as MISS FRIZZLE!! this dress was the thrift find of the century, i literally found it saturday morning and wore it that night! i went to 2 different parties that night too (a big out of house rager at my old place, then a small fun house party my friend was hosting!) and it was a big hit, i was very happy with how many people immediately recognized who i was supposed to be :D

day 2: sunday oct 27th i was FINN THE HUMAN babyyyy. my friend and i went to a local haunted house and i wore this because its my go-to lazy costume. i thrifted the hat when i was in high school and it's such a good backup costume that i have on standby every year. the haunted house was very sillyy and i got jumpscared but it was fun and i drank a baja blast afterwards.

my job also hosted a pumpkin carving contest which was very fun. this is my beautiful son, i was trying to win in the cutest category but my baby boy was robbed of first prize. still bitter but i love him so its ok

i also carved the pumpkin my roommate bought for decoration because the squirrels kept eating it so it was covered in holes anyway lol



and on halloween proper i passed out candy to trick or treaters!!! it was my first time, my hometown neighborhood didn't get any trick or treaters so i was very excited. my house is not on a very populated street so i didn't get a ton of kids, but i passed out all of my candy and got to chat with some pretty cool and funny teens when the night was winding down so i had a very good time!!!

this is the outfit i wore for trick or treat, i was going for a dead girl/witchy kind of look (i also did my makeup to give myself very dark shadows under my eyes) but it was very low effort because i got sick :( i have a new job stage managing a high school theater class/show and those kids give u germs :/ i could not be bothered to go all out for halloween but honestly i was super content to just have a chill night passing out candy then watching a halloween movie in bed. it was nice

finally, to conclude the halloween festivities, i went to another party yesterday at my old house because those sillies literally never stop partying. i was still sick so i did not give a single fuck about my outfit, and i definitely shouldn't have gone because being up late and also the fact that i biked home, realized i forgot something important at the party, and had to bike back at 1am in the cold did not do my illness any favors. that outfit will be featured in a future fashion page update because it was not good enough to have a place of honor here.

and thus concludes my halloween. bummer about getting sick, this also happened last year so i think i'm cursed or something, but i still love this holiday and had a vibey time :p rip my pumpkin son you will be missed.

omg hiiiii!!! long time so diary sorry y'all. its a whole new season and i've been NEGLECTING

i've been busy busy busy doing that theater electrician gig i mentioned in my last summer entry. dude i am so sore who needs a gym when you can lift lighting fixtures into the sky all day.

i've been spending my free time really getting into making kandi lately!! i grew up with a weird relationship with the internet and somehow early tumblr missed me entirely, and it makes me super wistful since i know all that early 2010s emo community would have totally been where i belonged as a teen, so i am making up for lost time. here is a photo of my current creations, i will do a more significant showcase later i think.

guys i'm also drowning in site projects right now. i have so many fun ideas that i am fighting for my life to actually execute because i have a complex about needing everything to be visually creative and interesting at a detriment to actually getting work done. BUT a sneaky peaky just for you special ollie fans who actually read my diary, here is what is in the works:
