Salem!!

You may or may not have noticed the severe lack of posts for the last whole month (I think that's a new record or something...), and that's because, wouldn't you know, right after I announced that I wanted this to be a personal blog, I started having no life. Seriously, I've never been so busy in my life, between school, college applications/visits, and work... BUT, this weekend, I finally got a break and had a chance to go to Salem with my good friends Mae and Matti! Salem is one of my favourite places to go, ESPECIALLY toward Halloween. I especially like the shopping... they have this amazing curiosity shop, a super-awesome nerd shop with plenty of Hello Kitty merch, and a consignment shop with plenty of awesome vintage clothes all five minutes away from each other!

Since it was so close to Halloween, I decided to dress up! I usually kind of dress up anyhow, but I decided to go the whole five miles this time with a unicorn horn and gratuitous amounts of glitter!! Here's what I wore:

My face looked really derpy all day, because despite it being the middle of October, it was SO hot! (over 80 degrees!). I had to sweep the wig bangs aside a couple of times, which looked quite derpy considering how dark my brows are >.>

I also tried to shop the pic to make it look more ~mystical~ but the cars in the background kind of ruined the effect xD

Here's Matti in her super-fab outfit! I think the shopping worked out more on this one due to the lack of cars xD

Mae, in a loopy thing. She had a very classy-looking on cardigan earlier but unfortunately she had to take it off due to the heat D: We still had a ton of fun though! I'd love to go when it's cooler, and closer to Halloween.

The buildings were all so pretty!! That's one of the things I love about more historical cities; the buildings are so gorgeous!!

Remember what I said about my wig looking derpy? Yeeeaaah I wasn't exaggerating. Either way, this book was adorable!! I didn't have enough money for it though, as I blew all my money on pullovers at F21 the day before D:

Obligatory "OMG look at what I ate you guys!" pic. It was actually Mae's but she generously shared some with us xD I know it doesn't look impressive, but it was REALLY good... but to be fair I was pretty hungry.

A giant ice cream at the place we bought ice cream from! I thought it was kind of cute.

This witch hat ended up looking more like a unicorn horn, so of course I forced Matti to try it on for pics :P These were kind of expensive, too, but the baskets selling them were completely full so apparently this tomfoolery isn't working.

I really wish I had more time to do things, but unfortunately my schedule for the next couple of weeks are pretty packed too >.> I WILL be going to NYC for college visits in a couple of weeks, so hopefully I'll get enough pics then. Other than that, consider this a semi-official hiatus announcement. I'll probably have more time to post around the end of November, though, since college applications will be done! Please look forward to that, and thanks for reading!!

Now here's a pointless Fluttershy gif because it's adorable:
