MY HALLOWEEN NIGHT
However we are now like Americans- we do what they do more and more frequently.
And so once upon a time everyone in my ex-class was preparing for a HALLOWEEN. Some disguised themselves as terrible, frightful, bloodcurdling monsters. Others didn’t really have to disguise themselves, looking awful even without it… A cum of mine- a guy named Karol got himself dressed as a lamp- in so doing he donned a stylish lampshade. He wanted to shine among friends but to his disappointment hid bulb got blown. I personally would some bandage around my face to remind everyone of VALDEMAR- you know which one, THE-ONE-WHO-MUNT-NOT-BE-NAMED. Well I looked I tiny bit like a dementor with my ice-cold look. Still I came to be named the revelation of the monster ball a best dressed creature.
Earlier that evening we had scared a woman to death near the cemetery. Another pall of mine approached her dressed as a lunatic asylum inmate waving the sleeves of his strait jacket and shouting at her- trick or treat…madam… trick or treat! The poor old lady got so startled to see him like that, that she might have beaten a world record running a hundred meters with flowers and candles in her hands.
Unfortunately we got sweets in none of the houses we visited- what is more people did not even know what they were supposed to give us- apparently the tradition has not yet caught on in Poland. In one of the houses we got a good whip. In another a man shot his double-barreled shotgun at us. He hit a friend of mine dressed as death- luckily, you can’t kill death, death is supposed to be immortal, but the poor boy hit with a lump of salt in his posterior suffered for a couple of days moaning and groaning in pain. Well in one of the houses we were given a salty stick the only problem begin we had such a fierce fight about who should get it that all that all that was left of it not enough to even feed a sparrow.
However at the ball we made a lovely jaco-o’-lantern. We hallowed a pumpkin, cut out the eyes, nose and mouth in the front of it and we placed a candlelight inside. The effect was stunning- the lantern added much to the great atmosphere of the ball.
In spite of all this fun I personally believe that the atmosphere or reverie and going back in our hearts to the times that we once spent surrounded by our closest people who then left us forever is something much more polish, something I wish we would never lose.

This history is not true ^^In haloween night I always tell scary history in my house.so...it's invent ^^

Zbyszek-friend
Monika's Halloween Story
One spooky Halloween night, Monika went trick or treating dressed as a ghost, Monika's favorite halloween costume. "Where is Kustra?" Monika wondered unhappily, tired of waiting. "Kustra is late, and I can't go trick or treating alone!"Just then, a bush near Monika started to move! The leaves trembled and a cry rang out. Monika was frightened but bravely said, "Who's there?" Suddenly, a skeleton jumped from behind the bush! The skeleton shouted, "Boo! Guess who!" Monika knew who it was right away and said, "Kustra, you silly thing. You scared me! Where have you been all this time?"
Laughing, Kustra said, "You're a scaredy cat! Sorry I'm late, but there was a problem with my costume and I couldn't meet you sooner. Let's go trick or treating. There'll be no candy left for us if we wait any longer." "That's okay," Monika said. "Let's get started. I want some Halloween candy tonight!"
Monika suggested they go east first. Several houses looked promising that way, and Monika remembered that the folks in one particular house gave out great candy and were fun to visit. However, just as they started walking, Monika and Kustra heard a scary howling noise. "What's that?" Kustra said, shivering. All of a sudden a black cat ran out from under some bushes very close to their feet. The cat streaked in front of them, running very fast across the lawn. Frightened, Monika and Kustra screamed in terror! Nothing else was in sight, and all was quiet. "It's only a silly old cat," Monika said. "It won't hurt us." Kustra said with a nervous laugh, "I guess we're both scaredy cats!" "I guess we are!" Monika agreed, laughing, too. "But let's get going. We'll never get any Halloween candy unless we knock on some doors tonight."
Their hearts still pounding a little, Monika and Kustra walked along the street. The first house they came to was creepy-looking and very old. It sat back from the street more than the other houses in the neighborhood. A long sidewalk lead up to a front porch that looked like it had seen better days. In the moonlight, the house looked deserted, but lights glowed through the windows. Kustra whispered, "I think I remember somebody telling me that this house is haunted." "No way," Monika said, confidently pushing open the gate. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind rustled the leaves of the willow tree standing nearby and a loud crash came from the porch. Both friends jumped at the noise. "It's just the wind," Monika said a little shakily. Although Monika and Kustra felt a little nervous, they walked slowly through the creaky front gate and up the long sidewalk towards the front door.
The old stairs creaked as they climbed onto the porch. Lying on the floor of the porch they saw a broken flower pot. "That's what made the loud crash we heard," Monika said. "See? There's nothing scary here." "Yeah, right," Kustra said, "Go ahead, Monika. You knock on the door."
Just then Monika and Kustra saw a large, strange shadow behind the wavy glass in the front door. Suddenly, the shadow started moving towards them! Before they could knock or even think, the door flew open! A large zombie stood before them! Monika and Kustra shouted and jumped back with a start! Kustra turned to run away.
"Wait! Happy Halloween ghost and skeleton!" the large zombie said, laughing. "Great costumes! Don't you two want some candy?" Kustra said, "Hey, I remember that voice! I know who you are! You're Zbyszek!"
Zbyszek said, smiling. "That's right, and you're Kustra. Welcome to my house. You and Monika are my first guests tonight. How about some treats?"
A little while later, Monika and Kustra called out "Thanks! Bye, Zbyszek!" as they walked down the sidewalk, their trick or treat bags full of Halloween candy. Kustra said, "Monika, you knew all along that was Zbyszek's house, didn't you!" "Yes, I knew. The trick is on you!" Monika said. "Zbyszek is a friend of my folks and I've been to that house before. You know it isn't safe to trick or treat at a stranger's house, so that's why I suggested going there." "That's right," Kustra said. "It's better to be safe than sorry!"
So, that Halloween night Monika and Kustra had a great time trick or treating. And they followed all the safety rules to make it home safely, too. "I can't wait until next year!" they said together, smiling big smiles. Then Monika and Kustra walked home, happily planning their costumes for next year all the way.

HALLOWEEN STORY
"Did you get lost?", I asked.
One nod.
"Can I help you?", I felt like a shop assistant offering something to buy, although the only thing that i could offer was me.
One nod.
'So what do you expect me to do ?", I was beginning to tremble .
It didn't answer but it made a horrifying roar and rushed towards me.
to be continued (wait for the next part next Wednesday)

halloween
We heard the monster coming and we quickly ran into the hall. As soon as we entered the door slummed behind us and it was absolutely dark. We were so scared that we couldn't say a word. Suddenly a candle went on and it lightened the room. We noticed scary monsters they were weird they had human bodies but their heads were scary. We were awfully frightened and we started screaming. When we heard somebody's laugh but it wasn't scary it was just simple human laugh.
Suddenly all the "monsters" took off their faces because they were just masks. the monstera appeared to be our friends and we all started laughing and we went to eat some candyfloss.
Happy End!!! Diana

Dear Edward,
I realized myself some important thing lately, but if you mind understand this, we must back in time of several dozen years. We knew each other from primary school, we went on graduation ball together, but when there I told You what I feel to You, You laughed at me. I cried at nights and I was thinking “Why did you reject me?” “Did I deserve for that?”. I wrote for You this song, which contain my reflections.
Ok, ok I don’t pester you to death,
Isn't something missing?
Jane

This letter could be my last to you. I'm fighting in this war for independence of our country. People, patriots pray to God for the charity. Than they die. It's horrible. I see on a places of a battle dead people. I want to be with you now, but I can't... I hope our baby will born without problems. I promise I'll come back in a glory of our country's victory. Our foes are going under. But they are strong. We need some time to defeat them once forever. They will remember for everytime they disaster in this war. Take care about you and a baby. Wait for me. Trust me. Love me.

MY SWEET,TINY PET
Everybody Has a pet and so do I. It is such a tiny ball of fur. One should like to say it is a ball of love. Yes my pet is a Mesocricetus auratus or in other words a Syrian hamster. It is larger than a traditional hamster. People laugh than my tiny, little darling is a glutton- but plump is simply what it was made to look like. Its name is Snowie and here is where a mistake apparently was made. Namely when it was very small it looked snow-white. Then it turned out to be in fact cream-coloured. So I guess its name should in fact be Creamie. Or perhaps Spongie.
ITS HABITS
Spongie, I’m sorry, Snowie is a bit of idler, a lazybones of if you prefer a sluggard. If it were not for me and my clever ideas for fun it would barely leave its house at all. It spends the day lying on its hay only to go on binge round the cage at night. So I have to take care of its daily entertainment. It is my occasional habit to put my foot under the cabinet on witch the hamster’s cage stands and by slightly lifting it I provide Snowie a real earthquake experience. On other occasion we play the giant spider attack game. In the game I place a toy spider which is three times as big as Snowie and top of the cage. And I must admit Snowie is a true tough guy because it does not look scared at all. In order to impress Snowie but a bit I need to move and shake the spider so that where is the impression of movement. Snowie eats its special feed that he simply loves. But from time to time I like to spoil my hamster by giving it bits of apple or carrot. It put those delicates on the upper floor of the cage where Snowie comes to get them and in that way I get the opportunity to see my hamster eats its goodies.
ITS HOUSE
Snowie lives in a cage where it has a wooden house. This type of house is typically used for guinea-pigs ( ^.^ ) which are larger then hamsters. So you could say that Snowie has a spacious hamster mansion and it must be very comfortable there. My hamster has the thing about keeping everything in order. So one section of its house serves as a bedroom, another is a toilet and yet another houses a pantry. A genuine stickler for cleanliness, you could conclude, that minus the hamster droppings that cover the toilet section lying one next to another. It’s just a well hamster droppings do not stink as much as cat dung. Apart from that Snowie has a run and a second floor on which it likes to stroll at moonlit nights and not just stroll but also do its wild nighttime frolics.
HE AND ME / HE AND WE
Snowie has a special place in my family. Sometimes I get to think my brother- a real larva and a pest to- lie lower in the hierarchy than Snowie. But that is all joking of course as that is my beloved brother and Snowie is only a rodent. My mother is yet another person to love Snowie a lot. Dad treats the hamster in a neutral kind of way. And the same time my mum bribes Snowie with delicacies to eat now or hide in its cheeks for later. Snowie repays the love by looking gorgeous and it sometimes gives us the pleasure of sticking its head out of its house in daytime which as we all know is not one of its habits.
But most importantly Snowie can be taken in your hands and it won’t bite, unless it changes it’s mind.
My nice pets!!!
