Description

My first Halloween was funny. I did not have any costumes on. I simply thought it was a day of free candies. You just go knocking at people’s doors and they will give you lot of FREE candies.  Every times someone opened the door, they asked me: “Hey, where is your costume?”. And I felt a little embarrassed, but the candies were too good to be embarrassed!

Next year, I did not have money to buy costumes and this has never been my mom’s tradition, she did not care. So I had an idea, I put on a garbage bag, drew something funny on my face. Well, that was enough to ask for candies without being embarrassed.

As I grew up, I could not go around asking for candy anymore.  But I love it to hear the sounds of the door bell, there are some cute lovely kids out there dressing as angels or supermen. That makes me think of my childhood, and a little joy is running through my soul.

I love pumpkin. I love its color. Everytime I see a pumpkin somewhere, I think of Halloween and its beautiful season.  Autumn is always the best season to me. You’ll see what I am talking about when I post the next entries. Hold your breath!

This year,  I decided to attend the Halloween Parade for my Halloween. This is the biggest Halloween Parade in the US. People flee to New York, dress in all kinds of costume and make the longest Halloween Parade on Manhattan streets.

I had never attended one until this year. And well, It was lot of fun!
