So I have a myspace but I never write on it because I can't access it from my job and I am never on my computer at home. I have decided that I really want to be a blogger so I am going to try blogging here and see what happens.

I started this blog by posting some pictures of halloween costumes and I now feel like giving and explanation of the pictures. They are the costumes that my cousin and our friend made for halloween this year. My cousin and I had known for a long time that we wanted to be the good witch and bad witch from the Wizard of Oz, so on friday night we decided to start making them. The plan was to finish them by Saturday so we could go to a costume contest. We had a few challenges like the fact that we only had one sewing machine, we had never made a costume, could barely read a pattern, and we also decided that our friend should join in our festivities and be Dorthy. It was a long night that turned into an early morning and then another late evening. But as you can see, we were successful in the costume making. Unfortunately, we were not successful at the contest and did not win anything. But I am already thinking about what I should be for next year. Any ideas?

In and out of focus.
