Happy Halloween, read cash people! How was your trick and treating? I hope you all are having fun. Mine was a little bit different compared to my normal Halloween schedule. Normally, when I'm in my province, we will pay a visit to our loved one who passed away at the cemetery, meet my long time friends (quick reunion) and spend most of it with my family at home. Since I was not able to go home in our province, my Halloween went out to be a normal day but don't worry, I was able to find a way to celebrate it with a twist.

Since my partner has a theme day to attend to her office, which is a Disney Halloween Theme, we ended up looking for an outfit for her. We come up with a plan that she'll be the "Alice" in Alice in Wonderland but the Horror one lol. Her two teammates will be the identical twins (Tweedledee and Tweedledum)  and her manager will be the Queen of Hearts. I can really sense that she's excited about this so since I'm not doing anything, I help her look for her costumes. 

What we did was go out to Opon Merkado (wet market here in our place) which has a lot of Ukay-Ukay (secondhand items like clothes, shoes, bags, etc.) I believe Ukay Ukay term was from Cebuano which means "dig-dig". Instead of looking for a dress, shoes at Department store, we went to Ukay Ukay instead. Want to know why? It's four times cheaper compared to Department store items and it's also the same brand on it. Most Ukay Ukay items are from American and European countries. Funny thing that we did today is that we bought a lot of Ukay Ukay clothes. I believe there are more than 5 Ukay Ukay stores that we visited (sulitin na lol). We were able to find clothes for her theme day too. 

After the Ukay Ukay trip, we went to a commercial store and looked for a Face Paint. But when I entered that commercial store and heard Christmas songs and saw their Christmas decorations, I missed home a lot. How I wish I could go home without thinking of responsibilities. Yes, I have my fur kids here that I can't just let by. I need to be with them at home since my partner is always at work in their office. Anyhow, this is LIFE, this is ADULTING. I'm just really happy to see those Christmas decorations. I can really feel the Christmas spirit instead of Halloween. I will do my best to go home this coming Christmas or New Year. By the way, we also visited three stores before we were able to buy that face paint. 

Anyhow, after all the struggles we been through (from Ukay Ukay to looking for face paint), we're done with all of it. I'm so tired but also glad because we went out so it's like that this is how I spend my Halloween. Even though there's no Kakanin (Biko, Puto, Budbud), still I enjoyed eating burger and lemon juice for drinks. Though it's not the same before, still glad because I did something on Halloween. Anyway, when we got home, I did washed the Ukay Ukay clothes right ahead including her clothes for the theme day. After the laundry, we did have a afternoon walk with my two fur kids (Summer and Franco) in order for them to pee, poop and also in order for them to play outside with the other dogs. 

It was such a tiring Halloween day it is and I'm happy I'm in my room right now, continue watching the Kdrama series "One the Woman" and wrapping up my October report.  Right after this,  I'll be visiting your articles everyone, rest assured on that. Thank you again for dropping by. Until next time!
