I tell you it is so annoying shopping for Halloween costumes, the sizes are messed up and individuality goes out of the window when you find out that girl has the same costume as you.

The other girls had their costumes sorted out already, me and Ali were the last ones because our plans had changed in short notice, the plan was to go yesterday but with the bombshell that she dropped on me I found it hard to register the fact that someone was in fact stalking her.

I had spent countless hours googling different ideas for costumes and I was almost close to giving up and just going as some sort of object that is tagged as being Halloween-y when I was inspired by Taylor Momsen.

Seeing as no one seemed to have heard of her I thought I had more of a chance than I would've compared to going as something else. I was in the costume shop with Ali at the moment and we were finally getting somewhere.

"Okay I'm done, Lady Gaga" Ali said, picking up a costume, " If anyone else turns up in the same thing they'll just have to face the fact that I'll look a million times better".

"Someone's got a big head" I said.

"Face it, some people are gonna drag Gaga through the dirt when we get there" Ali shrugged.

"Okay, I need something to wear now" I said, I started rooting through clothes rails but was unsuccessful.

"How about this?" she held up a Lolita dress, it was a greyish colour and it would probably never see daylight after I wear it once for this, I decided I couldn't be bothered to spend any more time trying to find something to wear.

"What do I have to lose?" I sighed, "I'll just make my hair really big so it'll be hell the morning after".

We finished the shopping and were walking back to my house when Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer caught up with us, the party was about 4 hours away so we had maybe 2 hours' time to relax and chat like teen girls do.

This was more a pep talk and a warning to me about some of the people who might be there, I had something I guess you could call special treatment cuz I had a first-hand warning from pretty much all the girls telling me to stay away from this Josh guy.

"Even I don't take interest in this, but I'm serious when I say he's bad news" Spencer said, "He'll mess you about like he does with everyone else".

"Okay, okay" I said holding my hands up, "I'll stay away from him once I know what he looks like".

"Just look for the guy with a lot of female attention and you'll be good to go" Hanna said.

Ali looked at the time, "Well two hours well spent every one" she said, "Let's get going".

I started off by making my hair unnatural and gave myself side bangs by messing with my parting and backcombing, that took me the longest 15 minutes of my life!

The other girls were halfway through doing their costumes when I started doing a quick Cara Delevingne grunge kind of look for makeup. I wasn't quite sure what my costume idea was once I put everything on but it looked pretty good.

"So, um do you have any idea what you're supposed to be?" Spencer asked.

"It was supposed to be Taylor Momsen" I said looking at myself in the mirror, "Now I just look like a 90's kid with a greyish dress".

"Which could still work cuz she was born in '92" Ali added.

"Whatever, you'd definitely win most historic" I said to Spencer.

"You'd probably win most original" Spencer replied.

I had heels on – obviously cuz I'm a girl who looks small, I also managed to find my purple leather jacket, after everyone made sure we had each other's numbers and set the ringtones on load we were all good to go.
