Halloween In Siberia – Sort Of

Saturday, July 4th, 2009

In another country to live and you start to know, significant differences. This is particularly so, as I discovered with Halloween in Siberia.

Holidays in Russia

I loved living in Russia and was the main reason for the people. The Russians love to celebrate and they are in the big holiday. In Chita in Siberia, almost every day is a holiday. During communism, Russia celebrated the employee leave, such as bus driver day, teacher and so on. If the joy of the love of the Russians in order from the menu of communism have decided to keep the holiday, and new for the new policy distorted. While the oligarchs’ Day is not yet on vacation, and almost everything else. In anticipation of Halloween, I was ready to go nuts and give them a little bit from the spirit of the United States.

At the time I was about 12 classes of instruction per week for the right and the shops at the Technical University Chita State Council. That gave me the opportunity, the development of wings of a Halloween things as students are not in accordance with the general guidelines, without question. Therefore I have for each class that you would build a house have been, in my place, and with approximately 150 students, was his ghost house of all houses. N students questions, but I should, that glance empty.

On the morning after my opinion, the dean of the University to me. She has a lot more questions about Halloween. Nobody heard of Halloween and the children do not deceive or process. After all, what kind of person stunt a child? The Americans do? Every year? And try, the children afraid of?
Why?

More to come and go, the more I understand the question after Halloween. When I put the fatal error, the rider without head, the gig was up. The dean told me move the forehead, by all administrators. There is no ghost house on 31 October.

Finally, is 31 October was the man with the keys of the day!
