Halloween
My worst Halloween costume was really stupid. I don't even know what it was. My sister told me to wear it so I did. It was a bunch of red and black cloth wraped around me. Yeah, it was lame.

Teens Top Ten
I have only read one out of these ten books, but I have heard of and have meant to read two of them.
The book that I have read was "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins. I thought that that book was very interesting and I really want to read the next book in the series, "Catching Fire."
I think that "The Hunger Games" most definately deserves to be in the top ten because it was well written. Although I absolutely hate the fact that the very end of the book was an enormous cliff hangar. And the fact that the main character, Katniss, was playing Peeta the entire time and it made her seem like a complete jerk. I felt really bad for Peeta because I think he really did love Katniss.
The other two books that I intend to read are "Paper Towns" by John Green and "Breaking Dawn" by Stephanie Meyer. I don't know what exactly "Paper Towns" is about, but I have heard nothing but good things about it and I want to read it myself and decide if it's good or not. "Breaking Dawn" on the other hand, I know what it's about because major spoilers that you can't get away from.

Edgar Allan Poe
The only piece of Edgar Allan Poe's work that I have read is "The Raven."
We read it in sixth grade and at the time, I thought that it had to be the most dull and obnoxiously long poem that I had ever seen in my entire life. It went on and on for pages and I thought it would never end. I didn't think it was creepy, nor was it scary. I just thought that it was stupid. But I suppose that I didn't have any appreciation for such things at the time.
I don't really read scary stories because they don't really interest me that much. I don't think that they scary at all. I find them actually a little annoying because a lot of "scary" stories have absolutely no plot to them other than to creep you out.
