Finally, Halloween was on a weekend! Friday was great; there were way more people in costume than I expected! I dressed up specifically for my Greek myth class as a satyr–complete with maple leaves, twig antlers, and fawn ears I made with foam. I had some really fancy fawn make-up I spent a long time on, but a decorated face is (not surprisingly) not very conducive to daily activities, so I took it off after class.
My friend John Giltner didn’t have a costume to wear in the improv show that was schedule for later that night, so I gave him my ears and some light fawn make-up! He was a pretty cute deer.
Walking around campus it was pretty cold, but the leaves are really starting to turn and fall (finally!) so it was really nice. Plus, lots of people got into the pumpkin carving this year! Here’s a few (including Majora’s Mask!!) from outside one of the residence halls, Trimble Forum.
My suitemates got dressed up as well, with some pretty creative costumes.
M. Jean from the movie Grand Budapest Hotel (aka Nick Kruger’15) playing mandolin in my kitchen!
Nick and John and Kristin Kerbavaz’15, a classy Sim, plumbob and all!

Some of my friends who live in an off-campus house together decided on a group costume: the entire cast of the TV show Bob’s Burgers!
From L-R: Nicole Renna’15 as Tina, Eric Schnell’15 as Bob, Katelyn Hart’15 as Linda, Zoe Levine Sporer’15 as Louise, and Kyle Dybdal’15 as Jean!
To kick off the night’s festivities, Ubiquitous They improv had a show (as we do every Friday) featuring some cleverly costumed performers. Here’s some pictures from backstage pre-show preparations!
Preshow practice! Ft. Allie Lawrence’18 in her preliminary costume, Grace Penzell’15 as Linda from Bob’s Burgers, myself (the fawn), and Jacquie Harro’17 as Buffy with her partner Willow, Molly Gregory’17!
