Halloween

Halloween atmosphere fills up the air. The fact that all children in US are excited waiting this month to end to celebrate the Halloween makes Halloween issues and everything in relation to Halloween is so prevalent in every corner of the city. In three different activities I have during the week, Halloween theme is obviously become the center of discussion and activity. I also carved a pumpkin on Tuesday (that was my first experience) and it actually was really fun. The sale is lingering around halloween decorations, halloween costumes and pumpkins. I personally dont believe in the real essence of Halloween but I think so do the people here in US. In fact, Halloween here is celebrated as a media to have some fun mostly by children. People need a reason to hold a party. People need a reason to have some fun. Having some fun without reason is like wasting time. That's funny, isn't?

Altough I dont join the costume party, or the corn maze and I also dont have a child whom I prepare to go trick or treating, but I actually enjoy this cultural moment, with the fuss and the decorations. I thought that there will be some children knock on the door trick or treating but today my friend told me that they wont come to our apartments due to the cold weather. I dont have to prepare candies, then :)

Trick or treat!!
