Photoblog - Day 195, Oct 21, 2010

Great pumpkin time!

Yes, it's close to Halloween! Though we don't really celebrate it here that much in the past, it's commercial possibilities have seemingly caught on in the malls - then again, it's no real surprise, since it's the more affluent subdivisions and neighborhoods that have traditionally practiced this... I guess, wanting to make sure they have a semblance of the celebration here as in the U.S.

Still, I don't begrudge the commercial practice - after all, it's and opportunity for kids to enjoy one night of trick or treats (specially the treats) and is likewise a reason for dining places - like the coffee shop to spruce up their locale with decors of webs, witches and whatnots. In this case, the jack-o-lantern inspired decors are an attractive attention-getter. It obviously caught mine enough to take it's picture.

Ah... to be a child again, and get to enjoy trick or treats... wouldn't that be nice?
