Apparently Halloween was yesterday, that's at least what the date says. And nothing happened. Nothing means that there were more police officers than partying people around. When you go to the students' district, Isla Vista, there's usually a huge party going on and you hear music from everywhere - unlike Halloween, no music, overall quietness, and people running around in costumes. So we had a nice walk through Isla Vista as if it was a normal autumn afternoon walk and everybody had dressed up.
Isla Vista: after Halloween = before Halloween.
So the most important part of Halloween was the preparation (which costume???) and the security. And: Food! There was free food from in our resident halls for a small Halloween-warm-up party which was nice - you can make a lot of things with pumpkin!
So let's prepare for Christmas now, it's nearly tomorrow...
