When in Rome...


Me and Sami the soccer player.
















…do as the Romans do.” Or at least try. The Roman will probably do it better.

For our Halloween party, a bunch of us decided to dress up as figures from Roman history and myth. I went as Minerva (note the owl). Two of my professors went as Roman senators. The actual Roman (another of my teachers) forgot to dress up. Jokingly, we tossed him a sheet, and I cried, “Quick, you Roman, you. Let’s see how fast you can put on a toga.” Not two seconds later, there he stood in all his toga-ed glory. He can even orate like an ancient Roman…


Me, Emilio (front), Dr. Paradise, Dr. Davidson.












Other party guests included the Absinthe Fairy, a couple of tourists, a gypsy, Carnevale revelers, the devil, and Josie and the Pussycats. The three-year-old soccer player had the camera for most of the night, so the majority of the pictures turned out something like this:
Whitney as Princess Leia, Shelby as a 1920s flapper, Emilio, Julia as Snow White, Immanuele as a knight, and Ryan as a 1920s gangster.
Gary as a Catholic priest, my head, and Sherri, Anna, and Alex's arm as Josie and the Pussycats.
Turner as a French tourist, Brittany as the Absinthe Fairy.
