FOR FIRST-TIMERS
Pick a boring costume and make it trashy. You
could be lillv Mav Clampett from "The Beverly
Hillbillies" but remember to do it l'.rika Kleniak
style: dirty.
- Make sure you get to Franklin Street. No one
likes a friend w ho is too busy to see the pagan
rituals or outlandish costumes that w ere thrown
together b\ people .‘5O minutes before they rolled
up to Franklin Street. And you won't get to share
all of the memories of thousands of others who
were there.
4 Stay out as long as humanly possible. It you gc
back to your dorm too early, you might misstlr
funniest thing you Ye ever seen.
4- Pa\ attention to everyone's costumes. Au'
might think of anew way to do a tradition; or
boring costume and be a standout next yee-
Sacrifice practicality for fashion. Yor feet
are going to hurt the next morning, ht that
shouldn't stop you from wearing the higl st high
heels you own. If you go as a 1920s flapir, don't
wear a pair of New balance running sues.
6 (I() to thrift shops. Time After Tin' is a prime
place to go if you're looking for vintgc clothing.
The P I A Thrift Shop is another | iee for some
really good deals for clothes and H' little things
that could set you apart —and it's *ragood cause.

2 Go to franklin Street, and .wear a sweet costume.
Girls: Just do something different. We've all seen
the “sexy' devil, girl scout, nun. Nelson Mandela,
w hatever costume a million times. I low about
some originality? Maybe go as a really ugh tramp.
Guys: I he above rule does not apply to vou. If
you want to dress up as a sew nun. more power to vou.
The more spaildex: Air in this ease “inandcx'b. the fun
nier it w ill be. And don t go as Tom Cruise from “Risky
Business." Ifyou can't put more effort than that into a
costume, don't bother. Also. Tom Cruise is lame.

STRAIGHT EDGE
1 here are lots of w ays to have fun on 1 lallmvccn
without getting all crazy on Franklin Street. You
could listen to a mix tape of frightening tunes, for
example. Rob Zombie and the Misfits are good
for starters. I’hen there are the hours and hours
of scary (and terrible) movies to he w atched. If
that doesn’t keep you occupied, content your
self to eat mounds of fun-sized candy. It's just as
good as regular candy, but smaller.
