Okay, so I am a Junior in high school, and going "trick-or-treating" isn't really on the top of my 'fun' list; but this year was different. I did my usual party going on Saturday with my cousins, but Sunday I found myself bored and no longer wanting to pass out candy to the younger kids. I called a couple of friends and had them meet at my house with a costume. I personally did not go out and but one this year, but i figured i could pull something together from the things in my house. Everyone gave ideas. First there was the nerd; but something was missing. Then, there was the Zombie cheerleader, but my uniform is uncomfortable. My brother suggested for me to be "a really preppy-hyper chick", i thought he was trying to mock me, since I am a little preppy and hyper at times, but I said "nah, ima thug." Which gave me a brilliant idea. I ran in his room and grabbed a pair of his khaki shorts. I threw on a white beater and reached in the back of my closet for my plaid shirts, I decided on a red and blue one that buttoned all the way up; I only buttoned the top one though. I put on a pair of white Christmas socks and grabbed my chucks- or as some say "converse". my hair was curly, not yet straightened and I didn't have time to stand in the mirror for hours and fight against my curls, so i put a hair tie around my curls and teased my pony and made it fluffy. I let my bangs hang, which i did straighten! I had my brother find his red and blue beanie and that finished my look. we went "trick-or-treating" and I walked the streets with one hand throwing up the peace sign and the other the "A" for ..Atlanta; occasionally changing my peace to the "west coast 'w'." when ever some one asked who I was.. I simply said, "Thug Nasty" and giggled til' it hurt. It made all the adults and teenagers laugh hysterically. This year was different, and I enjoyed it
