Hallowe'en

Korean children do not celebrate Hallowe'en, and the only thing they think they're missing is the loads and loads of free candy and chocolate. They're under the assumption that that's the be all and end all of Hallowe'en.

Tomorrow I'm going to show them that they are wrong, that there is something more important than a pillowcase full of candy. There is something I looked forward to more than the costumes and candyapples, more than going door to door hoping that the elderly lady or man would dish out FULL SIZE CHOCOLATE BAR, more than staying up passed my childhood bed time...

I thing I looked forward to the most was The Simpons's TREEHOUSE OF HORRORS.

I'm planning on showing them Treehouse of Horrors V, the one where they parady the "Shinning," where Homer travels back through time, and where the teachers end up cooking and eating the children (coincidentally, the most likely location for a Korean horror film is in the classroom/school--which says something about how school is viewed here, but more on that later).

I hope they love these magnificent specials as much as I do.
