This week I agree, I needed a little R&R. So due to the
coming holiday, I decided to prepare myself for the High Holy Day: Halloween. Why
is Halloween the greatest holiday? You get to dress up like a complete fool and
people love it. Each year I decide to make a more ridiculous costume, and
despite my body type, one that I should not flaunt, I find myself in revealing
costumes, such as Streaker, Underwear Model, and for this year: I will be a
Mexican Wrestler, or Luchador. This week I began to get my things organized for
such a great costume. I knew quite a bit about Luchadors from my extensive hours
in field research: watching the movie Nacho Libre. I assembled my costume, a
form fitting golden mask with eye, nose and mouth holes, my speedo, which is
unfortunately three sizes too small, though I will still wear it, and my cape,
and authentic Nation of Mexico flag. Overall, a pretty great costume.
This may not seem to be something that is relaxing to many,
but I love the feeling of accomplish a task. This becomes relaxing because I can
set very easy tasks for myself, and achieve them, I can sit back and do nothing
for the rest of the day. Confused? It is okay. If I sleep in, I feel guilty
that I have wasted the day, I have always been an active person, and doping
something mindless like watching TV all day makes me feel like I am wasting my
life. When I accomplish even a few tiny tasks, it gives me the justification to
sit back and vegetate myself for the day, thus I relax.
There will certainly be a few pictures available of my
costume after Halloween. Until then, you will just have to wait in anticipation.
