Nemo Halloween Night

This thread is dedicated to all you crazy fishes that were in the O**G Construction Lorry roaming the streets making the Nemo 1st Halloween party such a SUCCESS. YAH HOOOO!!!

DO you all know how term Halloween came about? Ok now let Mr. Know It All share it with you guys.

The term Halloween is shortened from All Hallows' Even (both "even" and "eve" are abbreviations of "evening," but "Halloween" gets its "n" from "even") as it is the eve of "All Hallows' Day, which is now also known as All Saints' Day.

The carved pumpkin lit by a candle inside is one of Halloween's most prominent symbols in America and is commonly called a jack-o'-lantern. The ancient Celts, on Halloos eve would place a skeleton on their window sill to show the loved ones who passed away, kind of like we do jack-o-lanterns. Originating in Europe, these lanterns were first carved from a turnip or rutabaga. Believing that the head was the most powerful part of the body, containing the spirit and the knowledge, the Celts used the "head" of the vegetable to frighten off any superstitions.

So now you guys know how the Halloween came about. But under the Nemoism believe, any festival is a day where all the fishes get together and enjoy ourselves. Let’s look forward to our Christmas Party and hope more people from all walks of life sex and race can join us.

All thanks to Chun wee and Ah Dai for making this exercise a success. 3 cheers and 3 cheers for Nemo HIP HIP Hurray! Enjoy the photos guys.
