Halloweentown. NOT so much.

It was Halloween in Amsterdam, and they definitely aren't as gung-ho as the US of A. Not many places are decorating, no trick or treaters, and no one (sans the Americans) are dressing up.  I think that MAS was the only place where Halloween was in full swing. The students had a nice get together at their place on Saturday night, and since The Card and Party Outlet isn’t happening in Holland, decorations had to be brought in from the states in someone’s suitcase. 

Alicia’s was supposed to be a vampire, however the fangs were candy corn yellow, and the adhesive glue was puke green.  So by default, she became Lady Gaga/Corpse Bride. Michelle went as masked Mardi Gras Queen. 

Probably one of Adverbarbie’s favorite moments of the night, was when Decker, (MAS Hamburg) was out at this huge dance club, dressed only in his long underwear lol.  You should have seen the look on the locals faces!  They were not amused. Good thing he has an American sense of humor. 

Some other mentionable moments:

Sneaking into private club and witnessing something similar to a scene from “Eyes Wide Shut.”  No joke.

Accidentally leaving a big box of candy on someone’s bike :(

Dancing at a huge club that used to be a church

Biking in costume across the ENTIRE city where no one really celebrates halloween.

Drinking vodka made from the lakes of Siberia, that we bought from the Vodka museum

Seeing friends from MAS London

People being super Ad-School, and dressing as CMYK (yes the 4 of them were the colors for Halloween)
