I love foreign holidays that don't change anything at all in my life and still have to work my butt off because it isn't a holiday in Brazil. Even more if lazy children use said foreign holiday as an excuse to get free candy. If I lived up there, sure, I'd commemorate it, but there is no point in doing it here because it is not part of this country's culture.
But we have a holiday near Oct 31st, the Dia dos Finados (Nov 2nd), and I'll spend some time going to the cemetery and visiting my uncle and grandfather's tomb.
