Halloween Fun


Jean, Sun Rose, Me, and Angela

These past few days have been a lot of fun as we have celebrated Halloween. The holiday itself is not extensively celebrated in Taiwan, but the foreign teachers have gotten together to do various things.

On Saturday, we had a Halloween Party at our house. People wore costumes, and we ated food listened to music, and played a couple of games of "Mafia". I went as a vampire. I must say that it turned out pretty well. I would like to especially thank Pastor Mark for sending the toy teeth which were the inspiration for my costume.

On Monday we went to "The Golden Eagle" (which is the local Western-style restaurant/pub and is owned by a friend of us Concordia teachers. They had a special rum-apple cider, and a dart competetion. 3 of us won the competition, and container of beer. It was a really enjoyable evening.

Then today, I watched "The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" with some of my Senior 2 students. It was great to watch, and my kids seemed to enjoy it. Snoopy is really popular around here, so it made for a good lunch today.

All in all the last days have been a lot of fun.
