Victory!

Best Part of Today #2:
Being able to take part in trick or treating after thinking I wasn't going to.

During my hour and a half break between classes today, I decided to go to the Student Union, where Trick or Treating was going on. I was very excited about this because I'm not going to be going trick or treating on Halloween. Like last year, one of very best friends and I are dressing up to traipse around Salem, MA, where, extremely surprisingly, there is no traditional trick or treating. (That's why the candy stores do so well.) In what then seemed a sad trick of fate, I found out that you needed a special Union bag in order to receive treats, and there were no more. I was close to despair when I started noticing all the people sitting around with stuffed candy bags. They got their candy, I thought, so they don't need to bags anymore! I looked for someone with a backpack or somewhere else to put their horde, and settled upon a girl with a particularly large purse (which wasn't too hard to find), and, after explaining the situation to her, asked her if I could use her bag if she was done with it. Happily, she seemed to understand my plea very well and was more than willing to bequeath her bag unto me.
TIME FOR FREE CANDY!! (the very best kind)
