Thriller and Parade of Lost Souls

On Saturday morning, SFU students participated in the charity event, Thrill the World, a global attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the largest simultaneous dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller at Kitsilano Beach, Vancouver.

In the evening, I went over to Demanda and GEoff's for a pre-Parade of Lost Souls party. We feasted on scary Flesh and Blood Sandwiches (turkey and bell pepper), Tombstones (rice krispie treats), and Rotting Fingernails (toasted pumpkin seeds). The house was decorated like a Haunted House. I dressed up as Alice In Wonderland. Riff Raff lent me a stuffed bunny.

We headed to Commercial Drive for the Parade of Lost Souls. Surprisingly, most people did not dress up, or maybe dressed as tourists. Sadly, a lot of people littered on the ground. Demanda and I scolded a Super Mario for throwing his beer bottle on the park grass.

Some of the best costumes I saw: an aerobics class, Hello Kitty Stormtrooper, Marionettes, and various Public Dreams performers. Great fire show at Grandview Park by the CinderBellas and Radiant Heat.

Listening to: Monster Mash
