Miia and I dressed as nurses. THank you Arheely for letting us borrow the costumes. On Wednesday night we went to a school dance with our school and the other University here- Tech. It was SO fun seeing friends I havent seen in a long time and making new friends. We talked and danced. 
The movie Mean Girls says it best- Halloween is the one night a year when girls can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it. Devil, nurses, sexy flight attendants, cops. Fun girls=fun night
On Friday- Halloween night I was planning on going to Barrio but I didnt feel very good about going so I called up my favorite friends from institute and we went to the stake Halloween dance. It was fun!
The Mask was my favorite costume!
Driving around is something I miss and so it was lots of fun. We went out for tacos after and our bill was like $20 for all of us and we paid in all coins!
Eli and I had a sleepover after the institute dance and hanging out. Okay something funny- the next morning I had to take the bus back home cuz she lives freaking far so it would be too expensive to take a taxi- BUT i didnt think about what i would wear the next day... so I had to wear the only thing i had- my costume and high heels the next day on the bus ride home- how embarrassing. Lol.
Dia de Muertos is on November 2nd. And they celebrate that as well. It is a more popular holiday if you go farther south in Mexico. People go visit the cemetarties taking their dead ancestors flowers, a plate of thier favorite food, something that they liked to do. They also pray for them and put out alters. I live by two cemetaries so my street was PACKED with people, small kiosks selling stuff, and cars from the 31st to the 2nd. It is kinda like Memorial day but to visit all the dead and remember them. 
They eat this YUMMY pan de muertos!
