Halloween 2009- so fantastically good, it was *scary*. Hah- bad pun intended.

This year's Halloween party in H3 delivered on all fronts- the decorations were superb (thanks to the the near-superhuman and life-threatening efforts put in by the College 3 team), the entertainment was both unique AND astoundingly good (thanks to Tobi for DJ'ing and the band Wasted, brought to you by Harri Geiger), the mosh pits brutal (thanks to your friendly local security man Simon) the drinks capable of inebriating even the heaviest drinkers (you get the idea by now- excellent job bar staff), but the real star of the evening was the audience. Never before have I personally seen a party with a costume requirement turn out such excellent get-ups, ranging from the hilarious to the scandalously, er, sexy, to the pure cool.....and yes, I am referring to a particular set of men. Who happened to be wearing black. It seemed like everywhere you turned there was another creative costume ready to double you over into tears of laughter or cause your jaw to scrape the floor for sheer ballsiness, and though perhaps they might have been a few more pirates than usual floating around, they more than made up for it by being damn good pirates.
Whether or not you normally celebrate Halloween, I can only hope that you decided to this year- otherwise, you missed out on what may very well be one of the best parties of the year- and that would be downright terrifying. (Sean)
