Thanksgiving Break






So I've been sick the last two weeks. Had this nasty cough that just wouldn't go away. It was finally Thanksgiving break though so I was glad to head home to see the family, and see my doctor. Turns out I had a upper respiratory infection. Nothing that a bit of antibiotics wouldn't cure.

Anyways, Thanksgiving dinner was of the norm. Same people that are usually there, give or take a few. The kids table seemed to be shrinking as one of the "kids" has a job now, and the other has a boyfriend. Her excuse was that she did not know if we were going to show up. I'm not one to break traditions but its a bit selfish of her to not show. Other than that it was a nice night. We had the usual turkey+Chinese food mix. Was pretty good to finally get some home cooked food in my belly. I've lost 10 lbs since the summer, which is extremely disappointing since I was at 140 lbs trying to get to 145 lbs. Now I'm at 130 lbs.

After a bit of drinking and Guitar Hero/ Wii (Still underage I know but a little didn't hurt anyone) we went Black Friday shopping at Toys R Us. To avoid the lines we went at a all time early of 1:00 am. Our goal was to get as many Microsoft Zunes as possible. Unfortunately for us, the few people in front of us had the same goals and we ended up with nothing in or hands. The rest of the weekend was just relaxing. Lots of eating and browsing for new cell phones.

After a long 3.5 hour drive in fog. I'm back in Orlando. On the final stretch of this semester. Two more weeks and its freedom. 4 more weeks and I'm going to Costa Rica with the family. I can't wait. Look forward to a lot of pictures of the rain forests and volcanoes.

Oh and I'm still trying to get used to this blog. Having some trouble with formatting but I'll get the hang of it soon.
