halloween in ecuador =)

Halloween this year was so different!!!!! I went to a mall to hang out with some exchange students and we were completely surprised because there were little kids running around in costume and collecting candy from the shops, and it made me a little sad that i wasn´t dressed up this year...jajaja. We did however go around and get candy from all the stores. and that was super fun! Then we went to my friend Mia´s house. She was really excited because this was completely new for her too because she´s from Denmark and had never celebrated Halloween before! so it was really exciting! We wanted to carve pumpkins, but we couldn´t find one anywhere. So we carved pineapples and canteloupe instead! That was a whole new experience and it was super exhilarating! We looked it up online and apparently noone´s ever done that before...jajaa. it´s harder to do than it sounds! my friend anna´s and my pineapples both completely fell apart...but that was okay because it was so much fun carving them in the first place! jajaa. mia´s is the only one that survived...lool. and then we all carved the canteloupe. and that was so great. we gave it a mustache. but actually, it just looks like a very sad little old man...oh and then we made pineapple-canteloupe smoothies! those were actually really good..i enjoyed it immensely. jajaa. then anna and I slept over at mia´s house and ate tonsss of candy. seriously, i´m still full from that night! jajaa. it was a super good time though, and a completely new experience, which made it even more fun! plus, it was my first holiday in ecuador =) And it was an absolute success!
