Journal # 14: Declaration of Halloween

Halloween is a great holiday. Everyone should celebrate Halloween. All the old people who only leave out candy for children to take a bunch are boring. Especially if they leave a note that says "Take One!" Do they really think that people are only going to take one? Losers. So yeah, people should go all out for Halloween. It is the most fun holiday. You can be whatever you want, and you get a bunch of candy! So here are some amendments for my Declaration of Halloween.

1. You must have a good costume. It can be scary, cute, crazy, funny, whatever you want, but it must be good!

2. For all you parents and old folks who are giving out candy, do not, I repeat, do NOT give out the crappy candy that only cost you 50 cents to buy. The good stuff is chocolate.

3. To all you awesome people out there who give out soda, giant candy bars, or even brownies...you are gods. Keep up the good work.

4. Unfortunately, if you are part of the portion of grownups who think they are being unique and cool by giving out coupons to the local ice cream shop...$1 off oh boy! - you might want to watch out because your house will most likely be tee peed that night.

5. If you go to any Halloween party, you must make sure that you have a haunted house and a game of bob for apples. Those two things say Halloween all over it.

6. And now for the final amendment. If you think you are too old or too cool to go trick-or-treating, you are soooo wrong. The cool kids are the ones who go trick-or-treating because we are get free candy. Hello??? Anything that is free is cool. Duh.

So let us see. There can be a billion more amendments to my Declaration of Halloween, but I feel like these ones are the most important. Some other amendments could include no trashy looking costumes (college girls...), no sleeping all the way through Halloween, no going to bed early, you must tell at least one ghost story before the night is through, you must visit a cemetery, and when you are done trick-or-treating with your friends, you all must trade candy until you get pretty much what you want. (The best people to trade with though are your younger siblings because they will trade something gross like gummy vampire fangs for something yummy like a kit kat bar!)

  2. Well, I thought it was extremely creative, and I agree with all of your points. I'm still not going trick or treating this year, because it's a lot more fun to scare the kids that come instead of walk around, and you can still snitch candy from younger siblings. But, I thought your declaration was very creative, and it made me laugh.
