Today is Halloween. I got reminded twice already! Yes yes, I know my name translated in mandarin means Halloween (万圣节). Not the most accurate, but sounds close enough. I bet my parents doesn’t know this. Who the hell will name their child after halloween right?:P I quite like this name though. You know, like Halloween halloween… sure beat names like Zhong Qiu (Mid Autumn… imagine you are a girl and some kid calls you, zhong qiu jie?) or… even Deepava-Lee right?
edit: I was just thinking, if I really call myself Halloween, it’ll be funny as hell when people call. “Hello…”, “Yes I am”. Oh man… talk about Pre wedding anxiety… Go to bed dude!
Ok, that aside, I recently found out something special about my childhood. I was talking to my dad couple of weeks back about the old times and how I was as a kid. Somehow we ventured into the topic of the supernatural world. I know we used to stay in a place which is, pretty haunted (I shan’t go into the details). I was very young then, before kindergarten (I don’t know what you guys call it now… some fanciful names like, playschool, pre-school… whatever).
He said I used to see things. Well, you know, dead things. I was a little shocked when he told me that as a child that time, I sometimes ask questions like, “why are the 2 people standing there without heads?” (when there’s obviously no one around). For a moment, I felt like the kid in sixth sense. Honestly, I never remember that, but I don’t think he’s joking either.
Over the years, I’ve had some strange encounters, but they have never been bad. Good thing, no visual contact. I’m a scaredy cat, I won’t watch a horror movie. The last time when my friends tricked me to watch one, I literally shut my eyes throughout the movie.
Well, I don’t know what Halloween means to you folks, to me, it’s usually party time (that is if I can). To everyone out there, Happy Halloween!:D Here’s one video for you folks who have decided to stay home…
