A Ghoulish Halloween

[As I am typing this entry, I am staying home for the next and possibly tomorrow too as I am making the painful decision to put my little darling to sleep later tonight. For the past few weeks, she had been brave, she fought and struggled, but now now now, nothing will bring her back. But I know she will be in a better place soon.  Just a little update for those of you who have been so concerned, and sending me your thoughts.]

 

I have created a facebook album, and this is the public link, so you can see all 129 selected pictures from that night.  I can't possibly spam this entry with pictures.

Honestly, I didn't expect this whole halloween thing to turn out so massive. It was a rather last minutre spur of the moment decision, and we just went for it.

Basically, my sisters, her friends, and myself got dressed up and decided to go all out for Halloween this year.  We have never done it before, and it was a brave attempt. Everyone chipped in with their expertise and help in getting the materials, costumes, suuplies etc.  We started preparing at about 5 ish, and didn't leave the house til 10.30pm.   Lotsa of makeup , lotsa of hair, lotsa of everything.

Our destination was Zouk, and when all 8 of us got out of the car, everyone in the costume Q let out audible gasps of 'WOW' , and it didn't help that we completely bypassed the snaking Q and went straight to the entrance and got in without having to stand in line. It was hard moving about because on top of the crowd inside, we were constantly stopped to have our pictures taken.  I think the size of our group and how we were all elaborately dressed up really made an impression.

Then we went to Clarke Quay about 1ish, and it was another photo op there.  Tourists, strangers, were all completely amazed, calling out to us and complimenting our effort and looks and the whole time we all kept our deadly faces straight, looking very aloof but gamely stopped to have our pictures taken with them.

Frankly it felt really exciting, and I guess the disguise really allowed us to act all cool and and confident, but inside we were giddy from all the attention.  :)  After parading about Clarke Quay and having BK fries and coke, we finally went home for the night.  :)

Thanks for reading~

Oh dear..which one is you? I actually though the guy was you then I saw it's a HE not a SHE due to the hair Y.Y
It def fun doing that tog with bunch of friends. It would have been very awkward if we go out in disguise all by ourself. Ppl might think how did that person got lose from mental hosp. LOL.

On the other side, Im terribly sorry for your dog. And guess what, my 6 year old dog is sick too..yesterday while i was brushing my teeth, my dog was wiggling his tails at my feet then to my horror, his right eye is not in it's normal state. Instead of normal clear eye, it's blue-ish grey. I quickly went to google it, as much as i try to deny it, it's probably cataract. If gets worse, it can get blind one eye sight. Going to send to the vet soon. You stay strong yeah. xoxoxo

hi Sticking out tongue i can't imagine life without my dearest westie. a pet is just like a family member that everyone dotes on. they are ever so faithful, attentive n most of the time, they make us laugh coz they are simply goofy. it's gonna be tough, i believe.

I'm sorry to hear about your dog. I know it must be a hard decision, be strong! Take care alright.
And I'm still in awe with the Halloween costumes and makeup! Imagine the tourists going back home and saying look we took this with some rad Singapore locals during Halloween. It'll be something they'll keep in a photo album. haha.

Oh.. poor baby.. she's suffering! It's really a hard and painful decision!!!! Be strong!

Sometimes I'm just glad that my momo didn't let me have the chance to consider putting him to sleep... It's painful that he left... yet gladful that he didn't put me in the spot of ending his life and letting me seeing him suffering.
