thanks giving

I thank to all my friends and acquittances for the support, and laughter i receive. Even Jason Liao, though he barely smiles at all. Going to his concert this Friday, "Christmas on the Heights".

My Thanksgiving dinner was great. (w) I went to my aunts house where they were trying to fry the turkey, but instead they boiled it. In oil. I don't know. The boiled turkey was actually quite delicious and juicy so i suggested to boil one every Thanksgiving. My aunt, whom i love very much (no matter how redic her ideas and thoughts are), suggested that we food-dye our turkey since it looks so pale and white. How can i not support this idea? Fortunately for my mother, we did not find any food dye. Of course we had another smoked turkey, and a bunch of other foods. We had sweet potatoes and cranberry sauce (home made). rest is salads and drinking - Russian style.

Checked out Andrew's room. Nothing really happening there.

After the dinner, i drove on Catrock, which is a street connecting my cousin's house to my other near by friends. Only you can't really go faster than 25mph. In some cases you have to go even slower, since the road is so twisted and windy, it's impossible to drive ON in and FAST at the same time. Another good memory of mine, Catrock.

Let's talk about driving now. If you like driving and haven't been doing so in a while (say several months) you'd be really excited to drive just like I was. Only i wasn't excited to drive, i was excited to drive my mom's old car, which she sold. And leased a new Toyota Rav4. Only problem is, i am not that used to the car. I don't have the same feeling of drive with it.

I was super comfortable in the old car, and i guess this is what i was excited about. Driving other cars just didn't do it for me. What a shallow man I am, preferring one car to another, considering i don't name cars, i don't want/desire them, (see Jeremiah W.) and they don't get me any emotional or bring any feelings to me.. or so i thought.

Jason L. is one of my roommates. He plays music and such. Knows everything about sports. We're quite different. Yet somehow we get along. Why? Well. I believe i am hypnotized by his charm and character. And his sense of humor and ridiculousness. Ah, who cares about him. Pshhh!
