Before self left on her latest trip to the Philippines, she already set out ceramic pumpkins and furry spiders. Fun! She even bought a bag of candy from Lucky (According to self’s theory of HOW THINGS WORK, Halloween candy gets more expensive as the holidays approach).
Every year, she tries to make up her mind to wear a Halloween outfit. But she never does. She wants to, though. She thinks it is fun to greet trick-or-treaters attired as a witch or something.
This year, Buzzsugar offers cheerful pointers for those of us who aspire to be Game of Thrones characters. Here are a few:
