Halloween in the US!

Coming from a country that barely celebrates Halloween (Australia), I must admit I was quite freaked out by it all. I didn’t realise how much people get into the spirit of such a spooky holiday (to be honest I’m still trying to grasp why it’s a ‘holiday’ at all). But I must admit, I enjoyed every bit of the novelty!

My friends and I dressed up as superheroes and villains and started our night early with pumpkin carving (the whole idea of stabbing a pumpkin with a sharp knife scared me to death). Then followed by drinks, some pool and an outdoor dance party with food trucks! It was so much fun, and it really felt like I was in a typical American high school celebrating.
