Halloween Stories

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

Mrs Stroppy and I looked at each other last night and said "Should we buy some lollies, just in case?" "Nah."

I went to dinner at LoneStar- Ribs, with the wifey. Sundance saloon for a few vodka crans and then back home by 11 pm. We are boring.

I am looking forward to the stories in the morning/lunch time from all you lovely party goers.

Well, I didn't even look into whether it's celebrated here in Saudi or not, but I'm guessing I didn't miss anything.

However, I did notice a few chicks dressed like ninjas. Maybe they were on their way to a party.

I have spent my day (besides catching up on work I was too lazy to do while at work this week) checking out Cambodian chicks Facebook pages to see their Halloween.

I've never celebrated Halloween here, nor in the west. I mean I did as a kid, but I never got into the whole costume party thing. Dressed up and went to maybe one or two parties, but I don't enjoy thinking of/making "the perfect costume", so I just don't bother. Some people really get into it. The only reason I went back in the west was because it's the one day girls dress extra slutty. Plus Halloween here seems forced. They hardly knew what it was a few years ago, and now more and more places are trying to cash in/start it up here by throwing parties. Meh... If I don't need to wear a costume I don't mind it though.

I had to go to the hospital one year dressed as a fucking clown.

Someone threw a beer bottle at me and split my forehead open.



And the first time I was truly high was on Halloween.

Someone had some Jamaican red and we got high as hell and ran around neighborhoods egging houses.

I was actually in tears walking back into my house at the end of the night as I was still so high I knew my mom would bust me.

I opened the front door and.....WOOHOO! ! ! She had already gone go bed! ! I wouldn't get caught being stoned for another year or so! :Yahoo!:



I also dressed up as a cop once and went around town taking pictures with real cops and stealthily flipping them off in the pics.



And another year my Caucasian girlfriend put chopsticks in her hair, drew long eyelines with her makeup, wore some weird silk komodo looking shit and said, "I'm Asian for Halloween!"

I told her, "You can't just be "Asian"! That's racist! You have to be a certain Asian person, like Lucy Lui or something."

She then pointed out all I was doing that year was wearing a dress and being "female."

I chickened out at the last second as I just couldn't leave the house in a dress. I ended up just putting my blood-stained clown outfit on.



That's always been a big holiday for me back in the States.

The doctor/hospital was NOT impressed.

They almost made me wait until I was less drunk until they did the surgery or used novacaine on me.

I actually sent the doctor flowers the next day as an apology for her and her staff having to deal with my drunk and obnoxious ass.

And the next day in college was not fun. I had a crazy looking black eye that couldn't be ignored.
