31st October, Halloween, everyone is out either in weird funky costumes or just plain everyday clothes, who cares but everyone is out and so were we. It was fun watching people in costumes. Those costumes ranges from really cool Wonder Woman outfit to a brown paper bag from the grocery stores with 2 holes :D ...But I really have to apologize here cause I was too busy "people watching" that I forgot to bust out my bulky camera from my bag to snap some pictures for you. Oh! In case you're wondering if I dress up, yes I did dress up but in a dress and not a costume. I was too lazy to go shop for one and I guess I wasn't particularly feeling adventurous that night.

We hung out at a lounge called Ohana so we can have drinks and music while we "people watch". When we decided to hop to another lounge, we were greeted with part of the road being sealed off by the police outside the bar. Apparently there were some shooting going on right outside the bar on the road. Wow! Ohana must have been really loud and we must've been too busy checking out the costumes that we didn't even hear the gunshots. A woman was shot in the face and a man was shot in the leg near the groin area (Ouch!). Both are listed in critical conditions. http://www.komonews.com/news/33692329.html.
That's not all, a 61 yo man set himself on fire on the same night in UW and another shooting at the same time near Garfield HS. That sure was one hell of a Halloween and good thing I was sitting comfortably in Ohana while the shooting happened and not bar hopping, else I might have been the one shot in the face *shivers*.
