Homecoming Week Adventures!

Whew! Homecoming Week is over! My life can now return to normal. It was an insanely busy week, but everything went really well--including my Homecoming Week costumes! Since I am the Leadership teacher and Activities Coordinator I always participate in the dress-up days, and my students really enjoy it. I thought I would share a few outfits with you here from last week. I didn't take a picture on Future Career day when I dressed up like a ballerina, or on Orange and Black day (school colors), but here are the other three days:

This was from "Would you still be my friend if I looked like this?" day. The night before I rummaged through my closet and just grabbed all of the randomest things I could find. I don't even remember when I got the sequined parrot purse--middle school maybe? And the vest is definitely from high school jazz band! The students loved my crazy outfit, and especially my hair!

I used got2b glued for the very first time, and I have to say it is amaaazing! My hair was rock solid all day long, yet it washed out really easily in the shower. I can't wait to use that stuff again!

This outfit was for Nerd Day. The glasses were the 3-D glasses we got when we went to see Coraline, and worked perfectly once I popped out the lenses. The rest of the stuff is just random pieces from my closet yet again. I thought my students would really make fun of me for my Star Trek t-shirt (it says 'live long and prosper' with a cute cartoon Spock on it) but they actually really liked it. I had a couple students ask me where I got it, and when I told them it was from the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas they said "awesome!"

And here is the completed Harry Potter look for Celebrity Look Alike day. Most of my students immediately recognized me as a Harry Potter character (a lot thought I was Cho Chang), but some thought I was a super hero or something. One teacher thought I was Judge Judy :(

It's a huge relief to have Homecoming Week over with, but I really do love doing it every year. Can't wait for next year and for more fun dress up days!!!
