The month has been exceptionally busy yet fun. Thursday I went to my Aunt Gwen’s house to have Thanksgiving dinner, it could have not been a more perfect day. I saw my sister when I walked in through the door, I have not seen her in ages. It’s nice to be around friends often, but there is nothing like being around family. The food was endlessly extensive, fresh squash, corn, buttermilk biscuits, and blackeyed peas. My other family members were there including my cousins, and uncle. While they sliced their Butter Ball turkeys, I sliced my tofu turky. When evening came, I finished out with four slices of homemade style New York cheese cake.
On Friday, which is also notoriously called “Black Friday”, I woke up at 4:30 am to buy a DVD player that was on sale for 99 dollars at Target. There was a line of about 20 people when I got there, I managed to get a spot in line just before the doors opened. The dvd player is nice, especially for travel so I wont have to see those 10 dollar movies on the airplane. My friend Candy bought a deep fryer at Wal Mart, she said she had to fight with a Asian lady who claimed it was her’s. I told her that’s not as bad as this lady who cursed me out in the Mervyn’s parking lot for supposedly taking her parking spot.
Shopping can be so fun!

Lol- great!!!
Take care sister

Celador: Lol, the car park find was great, sales are the best
Zingtrial: When I was growing up I was never use to looking for sales, but now that I have been on my own, and in school they are the best.
Bilal: Lol, I know everyone could use a new dvd player, my last one broke it was one of those really cheap kind you see at the drugstore. Thanks for visiting!

that cheap huh?
wow.
but the real question is…”does it work well and was it worth the queue up at 430am?”
