I love it, little children dressing up as animals, their parents showing them where to go, what to say.

I miss being little

Halloweaners
I don't want to know about your weaner.

Aaaand on another note: I did the Halloween thing when I was in the US. I dressed as a creepy nun. Well, actually I dressed as a nun and the creepy thing happened by itself. Trick or treating is suprisingly fun, even when I really don't eat junk food. That said, I did have to pretend to be a high-school kid rather than the 23 year old I really was.

Householder: "Oh, so you go to SLO-High, do you?"
Me: "Oh, yes"
HH: "You must be an exchange student then, with that accent"
Me: "Ummm... yes?"
HH: "Do you know Svetlanka?"
Me (sensing a trick): "Ummm..."
HH: "You must do, she's the only other exchange student in SLO-High. She'd be in the same year as you too..."
Me: "Oh, my friends have gone on to the next house. Gotta go!"

I don't mind Halloween but I can't really go out and ask for candy anymore as I live in Denmark where it is not really celebrated but they might start in about 1 or 2 years. Maybe more. But for now I know an english guy who knows about Halloween so we are just going to have a pary. But it's nothing compared to real trick or treating.

I used to love it. Every year I'd go around trick or treating. I'm bored of getting 6 month old sweets and old bags of crisps. So I'm gonna stay in tonight. All that'll be on TV is halloween specials and crap. Wahee.

Curses, I forgot to stock up on soya yoghurt. It’s the only stuff I would give Trick‐or‐treaters (something I’ve never been myself). Or maybe I can offer my last Brazil nuts if it doesn’t yet breach health and safety regulations. I doubt we’ll get anyone knocking on our door in this studenty area, anyway.

I forgot to get a pumpkin. Just call me misery guts. At least they’ll be cheap soon enough, and I can make me some gorgeous soup.

I don't recognise Hallowe'en, All Hallows' Eve or any other variation. I appreciat ethe custom, but have not been involved in any way since I was... five, in which my house played host to a fancy-dress party with friends (the first time I was introduced to the concept).

Beyond that, nothing accept activities at primary school. Too early I recognised the tackiness of its commercialisation and I went off the whole thing.

Actually, I like to carve pumpkins. I like the "art", the mess and the taste, but I've not done so in some time.

I love it. I think it's the feast where everybody can do (almost) what they want: I get candy, I can play tricks, I can go to the city (mine is very small) and control it with my friends and...... petards !!!!!!!!

Okay, some were just at the door. Now, it may surprise you to learn that I have never been trick-or-treated in my life. I also have nothing to give them, I haven't eaten today myself.

This was the first time I have been genuinely afraid in a long time. That it is Halowe'en had completely slipped my find. I heard a scrabbling at the door, and no one else in the house responded (I don't know where they are, actually). I peaked around the corner and saw staring back at me from the darkness, a Little Sister. No kidding.

I completely freaked. Bloody hell, they're spooky.

O.K., who are you, and what have you done with the intelligent BM I remember?

No one knocked on our door after all, but I saw a few students in fancy dress on my way to a dance class (that I never did find). My house mate bought some sweets from the local, but since no one came knocking for them, they’re ours.

Now Halloween is over for this time zone, and I can concentrate on celebrating World Vegan Day.
