Student Culture: Halloween And Other Masquerade Parties
Students lifestyle
Most young people enjoy their life at college and catch every opportunity to entertain themselves. Despite the enormous academic overload, they manage to allot time to regular meetings and parties. They celebrate both religious and state holidays and even try to keep to the appropriate traditions. Christmas Eve, St. Valentines Day and Halloween are popular among students. Actually, young people use every opportunity for having a party and filling their daily routine with memorable experiences.
Trying to diversify their parties, students may organize masquerades with masks and hand-made or bought costumes. These meetings appear to be an opportunity for realization of the creative potential and improving ones skills of self-presentation. Choosing a character and preparing a costume, a person demonstrates peculiarities of self-perception. Masquerade may become an interesting psychological test. Some people are inclined to associate themselves with negative, others, on the contrary, with positive characters. Wearing masks and funny costumes, students feel free at ease, as it is possible to shift the responsibility for their behavior on the characters they present. Actually, sometimes a mask is helpful for seeing the true faces.
