The Hallotober Tag

I know it’s late to do the Hallotober tag since it’s November in like two days, but I’d like to go and participate in it anyway! Thanks to Izzy for tagging me, and Jordanne for this idea!

Halloween has always been my favorite part of the year. I know some people would say Halloween isn’t something to be celebrated because of its origins, but common guys, it’s 2020! Halloween is fun because you can dress up as literally anyone and go to spooky parties! It’s that one time of the year where everybody suddenly becomes a cosplayer; and everybody suddenly has a supernatural experience to share. I love watching horror movies with my friends and be frightened with them, I don’t know, it makes me feel like we all have to collectively man up and be brave. Teamwork!

1. Whatโ€™s your favourite thing about October?
The thing about October is it makes me excited for the upcoming Halloween. It has that vibe where you want it to be festive like Christmas but at the same time you are looking forward to the trick-or-treating. 
2. Are you a big celebrator of Halloween? 
Yes I am! I make sure every year I have different costumes. Last year I dressed up as Medusa and went on a Halloween party bus! Stay tuned on who I am going to dress up as this year!
3. Whatโ€™s your favourite horror movie?
Thai movies will always be superior in horror for me. My favorite is Shutter (Thai version 2004).


4. Would you rather a cosy night in watching horrors or a big night out in a costume?

If you’d ask me that question 10 years ago I’d choose the first one. But now, I’d definitely pick the latter!


5. Which has been your most favourite costume to date?

The one I’m wearing tonight! So excited to reveal it in my next post!

6. Bobbing for apples or pin the hat on the witch? 
I have no idea what these are, but would love to try them!

7. How do you celebrate Halloween?

The past few years I make sure to dress up and attend parties. When I was younger, all I ever do is watch scary Filipino documentaries (e.g. Magandang Gabi Bayan), and make fun of the re-enactments. lol.
 
8. What’s your least favourite horror? 
The Ring American version. No suspense at all especially if you have already watched the Japanese version.


9. Do you have a favourite trick or treating memory? 
I don’t do trick or treating but my unforgettable Halloween experience was in 2018 when I was in Miami all alone walking around the streets at night. I saw three people consecutively getting arrested by the police. Such horror!
10. What’s your favourite thing about Halloween? 
I all want is seeing everyone dress up as a character and having fun!
11. Scary costume or Silly costume? 
A sexy one! Kidding aside, I’d go for silly.
12. What’s your favourite Halloween candy?
Kisses. I just finished eating them off now.
13. Ghost decorations or skeleton decorations?
Skeleton decorations are so lame. I like the ghost ones better!
I am tagging everyone who is reading this post. I hope you have fun this Halloween (and don’t take it too seriously)!
PS, I just got my new camera lens. That photo up there is the first photo that I took. ๐Ÿ˜‹

  • My sweet trip to Jamaica

    My sweet trip to Jamaica

    Hi friends! Last Friday I flew to Jamaica with the purpose of applying for US B1/B2 visa.  If you are wondering why I had to leave Cayman Islands, well that is because there is no US embassy here and the nearest one is in Kingston. My trip was only supposed to be over the weekend, but it turned out to be an entire week because… life happens! Right before I left, I was already feeling lethargic and called in sick from work. Then, one of my co-workers told me that someone from the office contracted covid. I hurriedly tested myself and just my luck, I tested positive too! ><” There were no restrictions to travellers anyway so I and my boyfriend still went and hopped…

    Life update (finally!)

    Hi friends! It’s been a while. So many things has happened since I last checked in. First and foremost, congratulations to me – I passed CSC Vol. 1 Exam! I started studying for Vol. 2 immediately after though. I know, boo! It feels like its never going to end bubu!! but I’m giving myself until next year before my wedding to complete my certifications. To be quite honest,  there has been a lot of instances where I question myself…is this really the career I want? It is too late to switch? Don’t get me wrong, the moolah is good…  but it is very exhausting. Sometimes I straight up feel like I’m wasting my life with this. I don’t feel any sense of fulfilment. It’s not…

    Fun things to do in Cayman, other than water sports!

    Hey everyone! How was your week? Mine has been pretty hectic, a lot of changes in my workplace and I had to take on a big responsibility all of a sudden. I spend my 7 hours at work fully and productively. After work I roam around West Bay and George Town to practice my driving skills, and do some errands every now and then. Sometimes I feel like all I ever do is work, eat, and sleep! Anyway, back to what I was saying, my mentor resigned effective immidiately before I was fully trained so I had to take on the responsibility earlier than expected, with support only from the offshore team. So much drama and tea! Well I could feel that she wasn’t really…

    Journey to Self-Discovery: From Humble Beginnings to High Society

    This post is dedicated to my dear friend Bea, who has consistently been my pillar of support and a trusted confidant whenever I’ve needed someone to turn to. Sometimes, I have this nagging feeling that I don’t fit in with the people I am surrounded with. I’m just a simple girl who once dreamed of being among the most intelligent and successful people in society. Sometimes, I feel like I’ve finally made it; other times, I wonder if I deserve to be here. There are moments when I feel like I’m trying too hard to fit in. I’m not sure if I’ve grown or if I’m just acting as the person I eventually want to become. I grew up in a modest background in the…

  • Life lately

    Life lately

    I have been back and forth to the hospital the past few days and I haven’t been feeling my best self lately. I’ve been to the emergency room twice and boy I tell you, how lonely it is to be in a hospital bed alone with all those beeping machines and people in pain all over the place. I even witnessed an ambulance coming in with person who just drowned and soaking wet. Anyway, I’m not sure if my condition is due to stress, home-sickness, or change in weather and fatty foods whatever – but don’t worry I am recovering. One thing I know for sure — medical bills are not a joke so everyone please don’t take your health for granted! and when I…

  • 7 things I learned at 26

    7 things I learned at 26

    I am now officially 26 years old. Yesterday was my birthday. But what does that even mean? The earth revolved around the sun 26 times since I was born? I guess as I grow older every year I also get less sentimental and more realistic. This year, celebrations don’t really matter much. I prefer spending the day in peace rather than in big crowd of people with a lot of small talks. I am bad at small talks. I am awkward and timid and don’t know what to say. This year and last year has been the most challenging and fruitful at the same time for me. I embarked on a new journey, alone, tried to do things out of my comfort zone even though…
