Geek Costumes

EVERYONE loves a good costume party but when you come dressed-up like these people, you are bound to turn heads. Check out the list of geek costumes and tell us what you like the most... :)

iGeek ... triumphantly holding his "Best Costume" trophy, Mr. iPod comes complete with a set of headphones for your listening pleasure.

Packing it in ... an homage to the classics, two party revellers decide to go as Mr and Mrs Pacman.

Their hobbies include eating pac-dots, maze-exploration and ghost-hunting .

Off his Facebook ... this costume takes Facebook addiction to a whole new level.

Complete with a status update, personal information and display photo, Charles Repp even allowed party-goers to write on his wall .

Out of range ... Mr. iPod had some competition from Mr. Mobile, complete with Google Maps and an old-school external antenna.

Cube up ... with two turns of the puzzle, this Rubik's cube is one of the easiest ever built. If only real cubes were this easy.

What a toolbar ... the magic wand won't make this costume change .

Most viewed ... these two give a new name "Broadcast Yourself". But with only three and half stars each, the videos they posted must not have been that good.

Perfect fit ... memories of 8-bit fun come flooding back as this Tetris team emulate the gaming classic.

There he go ... flailing arms, thrusting hips and loud choruses of "It's Peanut Butter Jelly Time" will ensure that you will be the centre of attention at any party.

That, or dressing as a giant banana.

Serious robot ... you know you are in deep trouble when an angry cardboard robot stares you down .

Trinis know how to party [photo heavy]

Well i won't be a Trini if i didn't share an entry on Carnival.

The Trinidad and Tobago Carnival is celebrated two days before Ash Wednesday.Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago is the event of the year. It is said that if the islanders are not celebrating it then they are preparing for it while reminiscing about the past year's festival. The heart of the musical celebration is the calypso. Recently, Soca has replaced Calypso as the most mainstream type of music.

Here are some pics from some of the bands and their costume portrayal
