I have lots of work, and am struggling a little bit with it, but I'm pushing through. Yesterday was Halloween, which was fun. It's a very big holiday here in the states, and some of my friend's costumes were amazing! I'm pleased it's over though - it's not really my cup of tea. I don't like horror films.
I got heaps of chocolate though, which was gold.

Not much happening, except for me helping innocent firstyears become less studious.
Cheating is always wrong team, and that's why I don't participate in it.
No, I'm serious.

and over here Halloween is kinda sad. My American workmate asked us where he could buy a pumpkin. I was the only one who understood in America they buy them in places other than the supermarket on Halloween. Everyone else thought he was crazy

Seatoun seems to have embraced Halloween maybe because all of the Americans that work for Peter Jackson that live around here. Even though lots of house were decorated in Halloween style, Scott and I failed to get goodies in so we were reduced to putting the sprinkler on in front of the front door, closing the blinds and turning off the lights. Still they knocked. We were prisoners in our own home.

Over here the pumpkins are fantastic. I carved one to look like a dragon, and was reasonably sucessful.

No one knocked at our door, because we're a dorm, but It was fun to go out and get lollies anyway.

Tell your American friend that pumpkins shouldn't be Orange Bexy - it's just strange.
