From what I've heard, we're staring down a holiday new to me - Halloween. I think I have the basics - it's a playful wink at honoring frightening things, is it not? A candy-coated shell over true fear? I think it sounds a great deal like fun, even if I'm not entirely certain how best to celebrate it save the half-dozen pumpkins I've put about the flat (sorry, housemates). Trick or treating is a tradition for children, yes? And if I wish to skip out on putting toilet paper on an enemy's domicile, I can do so and still celebrate the holiday? Also, I'm sorry, but candy corn is an abomination. If you wish to duel over it, I accept.
Many of the things that the holiday heralds are just the way of the world back home - witches, skeletons, talking cats (I am very disappointed that cats here do not talk, by the by). I'd like to think that Halloween will help with the spot of homesickness I have. Something familiar and bright, you know?
