“In the real world, Halloween is when kids dress up in costumes and beg for candy. In Girl World, Halloween is the one day a year when a girl can dress up like a total sl*t and no other girls can say anything else about it.” -Cady Heron (Mean Girls)
In Tufts World, Halloweekend is three nights of clever costumes, parties at the frats or sports houses, hundreds of Snapchats and Instagrams, and many stories that should never be told in person. But, when you are anonymous it is a lot easier to tell the truth about what really happened this Halloweekend. We asked Tufts students for the top 15 untold stories of Tufts Halloweekend 2015, and here’s what we got:
1. Has Had Too Many Tufts Halloweekends
“I’m a senior, I know I’m supposed to be living it up and enjoying my last everything, but I’m super happy with my decision to play a board game and go to bed at 11 on Halloween :)”
2. Almost the Next Episode of Criminal Minds
“On saturday night i wandered across medford alone, in a tiny costume, because my friends weren’t answering my texts. i’m just glad that i made it back to my dorm alive.”
3. Frat Dracula
“On saturday at ATO I was making out with this guy and then we were going to leave but he turned around just before we got to the door. I asked his friend about it, and apparently i bit his lip so hard that he didn’t want to kiss because it hurt too much. oops?”
4. Change of Plans
“Classic case of what I planned on doing vs. what actually happened. I didn’t even make it out of my dorm room. Pre-game at 9:30 became the game and I woke up three hours later not remembering a thing.”
5.“Candy” Overdose
“I yakked out my dorm room window.”
6. Hannah Montana → Miley Stewart
“The morning after, I found a lone wig just lying on the ground. It potentially was the saddest thing I have ever seen. Who would abandon a perfectly good wig like that?!”
7. College Version of a Slip and Slide
“Soberly fell down the stairs twice because they were drenched in beer.”
8. BOO!!!
“I crouched behind a wall to scare my friends who were behind me and a couple people were yelling “stop peeing” to me and then I popped out and scared my friends who proceeded to pee their pants.”
9. When The Mask Comes Off
“I was grinding then making out with a guy on the dance floor. It was dark and loud so I kinda heard his name but couldn’t see his face too well. Then, we pulled apart as he asked if I wanted to go to his place. I was about to say yes when I noticed that he looked familiar…too familiar. Andddd he was my TA. Needless to say, I will be skipping class tomorrow….”
10. Aced the Weekend
“Lost the v-card.”
11. Already on the Naughty List… It’s November
“I’m an RA and one of my residents was at the door of the frat i was trying to get into. he didn’t let me in.”
12. HALLoween-Cest
“Hooked up with a guy at a frat. He started getting creepy, so I decided to quietly book it back to my dorm. Half an hour later, he showed up at my door to ask if I’d arrived home safely… turns out he lives down the hall from me. FML.”
13. In Another World
“I went WAY too high to the spooky organ playing at the chapel…I freaked the f*ck out.”
14. Dressed Up Like Kobe… Lacked the Skills Though
“I knew I was going to throw up so I grabbed the trash bin in my room to put near my bed. Problem was, it was full of trash, so I dumped out all its contents onto the ground. When the time for vomiting came, I missed the bin.”
15. “Wherever we want to go, we go…” -Jack Sparrow
“I witnessed a man dressed as Jack Sparrow, who wasn’t even a brother at ATO, convince them to let ten random freshman he’d never met skip the line & come in. It was a beautiful sight to see.”
