Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!

Actually, it is still Thanksgiving in the US, but here in Singapore, it is already Friday morning!
Let me just start off by saying that I LOVE THANKSGIVING. Thanksgiving-Christmas is my favorite part of the year!This year, of course, we didn't get to spend time with our family in Mississippi, as is our usual tradition, but we found a Turkey, opened some cranberry sauce, mashed the potatoes and still managed to enjoy ourselves immensely.

Much to my brother and father's disappointment, however, there were no football games for them to watch on TV...somethign I didn't really care about, myself.

Today is another "holiday" or sorts in itself, of course...Black Friday!!!! Crazy sales here, but we went out to the mall anyway!

We ended up making a little trip up to the top of the Marina Bay Sands Tower.Check out the view!

Some Exciting News

Hey! First off, my Thanksgiving was GREAT! I flew out of Orlando on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. I landed in Memphis, TN where my mom's parents picked me up before heading to Senatobia, MS. There, I met up with my parents and brother before the four of us went down to Grenada to see my Dad's mom. Ah! There were so many relatives there! I was there for actual thanksgiving (2 turkeys and a ham= yummmmm). I also got up at 2am the next morning to head BACK to memohis with my uncle and his family for some black friday shopping. I didn't really buy much, though because I would have had to fit it into my carry-on. Thankfully, I witnessed no stampedes or other horrific things that so often occur with Black Friday. I was REALLY cold, though! Well, I mean it was at least in the 40s or something.... give me back my 85 degree November, thank you very much. Anyway, later that day I went back up to Senatobia (my parents and brother had already left to drive home). I had dinner/xmas tree decorating time w/ my grandparents there, my cousin and her boyfriend. I beat them all at phase 10! mwahaha! Saturday, I went to stay with my cousin in Memphis so I would be closer to the airport. We went to her boyfriend's house for dinner and poker.... I beat them all at poker! Mwahahahaha!!! Then I flew home. Thus ends thanksgiving.

I didn't even give you my exciting news yet!.....

I AM MOVING TO SINGAPORE.

My dad is transferring there for work for about 3 years. He is actually moving there in January. My mom and brother are going over there after he graduates in May and I AM GOING WITH THEM! Of course, I am not moving there for the WHOLE time they are... my brother and I will probably be there for the summer and then Fall semester. I  will probably come home after that and go back to UCF or something.... not sure what my brother will end up doing.  I don't really know much about it yet, but I am still excited! Yay for Singapore!
