At first I was not excited about it because I would be missing this special day all my family gathers and has a blast!  I have a very large family and this only happens around the holidays.

After I got over the fact that I would not be with my family on this day; I was feeling a bit “down”.  It did not even feel like it was this very day that everyone rejoices over.  I had to remember when looking at statuses on Facebook and Twitter.

What’s this day huh?…. THANKSGIVING!!! duh

Its not that the Asian culture doesn’t celebrate it, because they very well do.  It just didn’t feel the same.  Plus on top of me missing every other special event for the past 4 years of being in college – not being around for thanksgiving almost tore me apart.  I was being a real scrooge.

Well, I wasn’t that bad.. I was just sad.  I finally sucked it up, got off my tush, and ended up having a very great Thanksgiving.  When I talked to myself (don’t judge, its just like writing a blog), I realized I cannot keep getting in the way of my own happiness.  Here are some pics of the night! My expectations were surpassed! 😀

Thanks Hong Kong!
