I'm still working now (who isn't?), but my mind is already preoccupied with Halloween thoughts. No, not scary thoughts. Fun thoughts! You see, next to Christmas, Halloween is my favorite holiday. (I don't really care about Valentine's; how about you?) This year is special because the village is having Trick-or-Treat for the first time!
We're quite busy preparing for later, and here are some prep snapshots:
1. Costumes
Sorry, mom, I accidentally cropped your head off.
Like what I mentioned last time, Yuri was really afraid of the scary costumes. In the first place, I did not really plan to buy something scary or evil-looking (goes against my beliefs), but Yuri's fear cemented the decision. Therefore, the costume needed to be something cutesy. Thus, the pirate!Thanks, yayu and iya! (Lolo and lola)
Witch's hat
Yes, my sister is not too old to join Trick or Treat. I'm not too old for it nga eh! My sister wanted to be a witch this year, but the old folks know she can't be too scary because of Yuri. Because of that, her costume is something cutesy din hehe. She was pissed that she cannot be a scary witch, but she relented when she saw the glittery leggings she could wear. Kids!2. Trick
My sister and I decorated the front of our house after our folks left for work.
Cutesy (again) ghost garlands
Cobwebs
And fake spiders
The funny thing was while we were decorating, a real spider fell on my hand. It was black and red, and I'm not sure if it bit me or not. I wanted to take a photo of it, pero nahulog na sya eh.
3. Treats
All wrapped up
My mom discovered some chocolates with cute cutouts!
The elephant for me, the pirate for Yuri
We also found some peppermint chocolate. On sale. Buy 1-Take 1 at Robinson's Cybergate
Some more chocolates for me for Yuri
4. Halloween Sees
Pee Mak with papa Mario
5. Halloween Reads
Just a bit of trivia: I always, always, have holiday reads. If it's Christmas, I would go to Booksale and stock up on Christmas novels and stories. If it's Halloween, I would look for mysteries and scary novels. Now, I stocked more books on my Kindle app. Here's my current read:

How are you spending your Halloween, guys? I hope you're having a great time! I'm so excited to go pig out on chocolates later hahaha!
