the first case of halloween

this time our lab was in charge of food, which is a whole lot more slack than our usual decoration stint...

so we grabbed the chance to work our swedish student, clara, into the food prep!

menu:

1. ikea meatballs - not that she couldn't hand make them; we were just too lazy. popping them into the microwave is fast, fail-safe... and only $3 more.

2. swedish pancakes - mmm with strawberry preserves smeared into them, and then rolled up.

3. swedish crackers - these tasted so light and fresh with capsicum. mind-blowing, coz they looked so plain! how deceiving!

so here we are at Hon's place at 11am. clara had done one batch of pancakes and i was SO BORED i took over.



making pancakes was so fun. fried butter smells nasty though.

here's our master chef!



and our professional crepe roller... HON!



while we were busting out our sweat pores somewhere in bukit panjang, the peeps over at md4a were working hard on our prof's costume - it took them about two days of painful sewing.

here's the final result which i thought was really one of a kind:



alvin did the snout (which could open and close) and gloves! and the pouring of fake blood across the chest.



while our prof was dressing up, the food stall had already been done so i decided to look a little goth. but alas, how to be goth without black eyeshadow and black lipstick? i looked at my pot of purple eyeshadow and glanced at my face.

i dabbed them on my upper eyelids. hmm abit glam rock leh...

how about lower lashline? *dabdab*

OH I KNOW!! *starts smearing the purple lower and lower... onto my eyebags*

i stepped back and looked at myself. my eyes looked bruised.

PERFECT.

i also put some under my cheekbones to create the gaunt look. never knew purple makeup could be so useful. :D

anyway, when we were all done we gathered in the seminar room at 3pm. check out the parade of our profs garbed in horror!

look closely; it's morticia addams



the joker and the headless scientist:



the bride of chucky:



another headless scientist! but he's the natural killer... haha.





(you know, i only realized that he was making a pun on what he works on, natural killer cells, two days after the party. sheesh!)

count lemming:



it's funny how when our prof burst in, everyone was not shocked nor horrified, but kinda like 'awwww...'



haha.

check out the decor! it's amazing! so many props and photo opportunities! :D



hanging out with the headless man.









and the scariest of all:



oh oh they had this part of the program where a horror movie quiz was organized. in the moment when they were replaying the Sadako scene from The Ring, an actual person dressed as Sadako started creeping out from under one of the tables towards the contestants. HAHAHA AWESOME PRANK!!! everyone freaked. hurhurhur.
