HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Naughty and Nice trying to pull apart Gaston and Belle.
All us Pi Phis!
Yesterday was Halloween, and we sure did it up big here at Heidelberg! Germany doesn't really celebrate halloween, so we were very limited on costumes. So, being the creative students we are we all came up with some very unique costumes. The 2 hours before dinner everyone was going NUTS running around raiding closets, drawing mustaches on boys, and curling hair.

Austin and I become REALL creative and decided to take a metaphorical route for our costume. We decided to be 'naughty' and 'nice'...from the santa clause song of course. Nobody beleived that we could pull it off...ohh but we did. We all met for dinner at this restaurant at the castle, and we came a little late and everyone died laughing when they saw us. They were very impressed.
Other costumes included: love, hate, babies, angel, devil, christmas tree, sigmund frued, guys dressing up as some girls here in short running shorts--sorority sweatshirts--headbands--and the girls sunglasses, lindsey lohan (she looked exactly like her!), gaston and belle from beauty and the beast, randal from the kids show recess, and the most creative....the IPOD shadow man! you know, the black shadow in all the commercials that dances around with his white ipod. They painted him black except for the apple sign on his cheek...it was amazing!

Our evening consisted of dinner at this amazing restaurant (chicken breast with lemon sauce...amazing!). Everyone was in costume--it was a blast! Then we cleared the middle of the room and had a dance party! We danced straight for about 2 hours to a huge variety of music. We all decided that it was the best halloween party we'd ever been too. Then we came back to the haus and a few of us started watching The Gaurdian, but then we got tired and went to sleep.
All in all it was a GREAT first holiday here in Heidelberg. Tonight Austin and I pushed our beds together, and are decorating our little 'nook'. Its really exciting! But I have to go now, I'm being summoned to jump on our new big bed!
