October 31st

Halloween (or Hallowe’en) is an international holiday celebrated on October 31st. Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, ghost tours, bonfires, costume parties, visiting haunted attractions, carving jack-o'-lanterns, reading scary stories, and watching horror movies. Irish immigrants carried versions of the tradition to North America in the nineteenth century. Other western countries embraced the holiday in the late twentieth century. Halloween is celebrated in several countries of the Western world, most commonly in the United States, Canada, Ireland, Puerto Rico, Japan, New Zealand, United Kingdom, and at times in parts of Australia. In Sweden the All Saints' official holiday takes place on the first Saturday of November.

I know, Malaysian not really celebrate Halloween (maybe there are but so little) BUT i suddenly remember the memories when me & my fren back in schooling time, we did celebrated it... it was fun dat time and was my last time celebrated the Halloween... And today is Oct 31st, the day of Halloween, and the tradition seems to spread among Malaysian... Last year i saw there were a group of youngsters celebrated Halloween at Bukit Bintang Road, BUT this year i had no chance to see it... its fun to see people wearing those 'uniquely' halloween costumes walking around the city in the midnite.. and the most thing dat i love to see during Halloween is the Jack-O-Lantern, so cute & adorable those cute-orange-head 'walking' around the street... hehehehehe
