I was silently walking to my bus arrest, with Evanescence singer Amy Lee yelling out loud and screaming her lungs out in my ears. Secretly, in my bag, I was carrying my Zonster Kitty, who had prefered to go to school with me than to stay home all alone on my bed for the whole day.

I looked up : the sun was shining, the birds were whisteling an happy tune, colorful flowers were blossoming everywhere in sweet little gardens… Hell, it was horrible!!! I can’t wait for orange and red leaves to fall downm the trees and leave behind them a wonderful and sinister landscape! Then, Halloween will arrive! The best event of the year, if you want my opinion. Vampires, witches, ghosts, monsters… pumpkins!… It looks just as if the world inside my head had mysteriously gotten out of it!

The bus arrived and pulled me out of my own thoughts. I hopped in and sat sat in the first free seat that I saw (I do not see the interest to sit in the farthest place, way in the back of the bus. It is just longer to get out of this bloody yellow metal-monster when we’re arrived in Hell…).

The day was normal, which means boring (To my own pleasure, there was no math class today!). I had to let my Kitty in my bag for the classes, since I knew that the teachers wouldn’t appreciate him too much (To tell you the truth, Kitty ain’t the sanest thing is this world…). All I did the whole day was to daydream about the forthcoming Halloween. I’m anxiously waiting for this special event all year long, and when it finally arrives, it doesn’t last long enough (Only 24 hours…) and then I have to wait 365 days before Halloween comes back… But the good point of it is that it leaves me lots of time to think of what will be my next costume. Last year, I was a catgirl. This year, I want something original, easy to make and, the most important : I need something Strange! My trademark…

So during the class, I concentrated all my mind on finding a valuable Halloween costume. A witch? No, too common… A Rock Star? No, too simple… A princecess? HELL NO!

I finally came up with the best idea ever : a doll! Of course, not any kind of doll : a dead one! With black make-up and a scary dress… oh and with a bag to carry candies and offer them to strangers… A costume like the one that Amy Lee was wearing in one of her shows…. A white and pink dress with huge black writing on it… Yeah! I love the idea, so let’s go for a dead doll. Kitty and I will have so much fun!… May be I should do a drawing of the costume first. When it’s done, I’ll glue it in the little black book, so you can see it!

Gotta go work on the costume now. Have sweet nightmares!

See you in another Strange place…
