With costumes prices out of the roof, this year I decided to wear a hand me down costume from my older sister. In the past years I have worn a new costume every time. I remember my eighth grade year I was a bee. It was a short little dress with yellow and black stripes going across it. I wore it to school with tights and wings that went with it. My math teacher thought it was inappropriate and sent me to the office. My principle was a girl at the time and thought I looked adorable and her daughter, the same age, had the same costume. I thought it was so funny that my principal liked my costume and my teacher thought it was inappropriate. The last couple of years I have worn short little skimpy dresses, not this year. This year I wore a body suit that was designed as a race car driver. I added some sun glasses and windblown hair as accessories. I'm very glad I didn't wear a short little skimpy almost nothing dress this year because it was freezing! I'm happy I looked good and didn't spend any money at all on my costume.
That's crazy that your math teacher thought the bee costume was inappropriate. I'm glad your principle liked it. I also think your costume sounded hilarious this year. I think it's fun when people dress up.
ReplyDeleteOkay, ha ha. Now that I see the picture it's not as hilarious as I was thinking. I was picturing your hair way blown out like crazy, all over the place. Still a nice costume though.
ReplyDeleteI liked the story about your outfity being deemed inappropriate and your principle liking it, that is so funny!
ReplyDeleteDanica Patrick would approve of your costume race car driver costume... and I think it's cool! The story about your pinciple vs. your teacher's opinion is interesting. People's opinions are so prevalent in our society.
ReplyDeleteI think people are way too politically correct now. It seems like some are starting to head back the other way, but some are still too strict. Luckily your principal wasn't one of them!
ReplyDeletethrifty is the way to go. Good thing you decided against the skimpy outfits. Too cold

ReplyDelete• Run-on sentence: The last couple of years I have worn short little skimpy dresses, not this year.
• Missing commas here: short little skimpy dresses
• This phrase modifies the word "dress" and so should have hypens in it: short little skimpy almost nothing
