This might be a silly question. But how do you suppose we should be counting our birthdays here?

I technically should be 19 now, I think.
But if it's Halloween, I'm still a bit away from my birthday, too.

Should I be 18 or 19?

is halloween some kind of festival?
is it fun? do you think we'll celebrate it here too? what is it about??

as for your birthday, someone smarter than me will have to answer that one but maybe what matters is how old you feel in the end

and ummmmm i guess so? definitely not from HERE at least, wherever this is

It used to be! Now it's just for fun, although it wasn't done in my country.
But according to movies and such, children will dress up as different things and go around their neighbourhood, asking for candy.
I'm sure it can be celebrated here, there is a shop with Halloween things.

I think it doesn't make a difference since it's just a year of difference, to be honest.

But no one is from here, at least...

i forgot a more important question
are you going to have a party???

as far as what halloween's about, i saw the store with the costumes but i didn't know candy was a part of it!
kind of a bummer that only kids can do it though im like 105 years too late probably

then again, there are bigger costumes i'd fit in? so maybe its ok
are you dressing up

I didn't celebrate my birthday before, I wouldn't know how to throw a party.

I think everyone can do it. it's usually kids, but I'm sure even you could.
Even if you are 100 years old...

I also never celebrated Halloween before. All I know about it is from movies and books.
What would you want to dress up as?
