Alrighty, so if by now, you still don't know where I'm gonna be for the next 5 days...the picture below should provide you with some clue.
Still no idea? Well, to disclose more... I'm going to the land of Toon-Town, Sleeping Beauty's castle, Tom Sawyer's boat ride, and that lil enclosed space that holds The World (cos its apparently, a Small, small world).
Still have no idea? Alright, I can't get more explicit than this!
WOOOHOOOOO... alright, to be honest, I am SUPER DUPER EXCITED NOW. I can't stop bouncing off the walls, and if you were to talk to me now, you would probably think I'm high on some banned substance. Eh, no. Wow, I haven't been this energetic since 1997!
Campus is already partially quiet, with most students already AT HOME, ready to welcome the holidays (plus that gigantic turkey!). But I, will be celebrating this Thanksgivings holiday with Xinli in ORLANDO, FLORIDA!!! I WILL BE GOING TO THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH! Do I hear a hoo-hah anywhere?
Xinli and I will be spending only 2 days at the Disneyworld resorts cos we don't have enough time, so we've zoomed in on the Magic Kingdom (my fav, of course), and Epcot. And then we will spend one day (friday) shopping, cos its Thanksgiving, so thats a really good reason to go shopping!! And then becos it is, and I quote: Xinli's 'DREAM' to go on the Incredible Hulk ride, and 'I will be so disappointed if I don't go cos it would be so near yet so far' at the Universal Islands of Adventure, I guess the least I can do is to pay $67 just to enter and puke my guts out on the rides. Man, I'm having wobbly knees just thinking about it.
I'll be coming back on Monday, in case you are wondering. And no, Monday's not a holiday. Its kinda self-proclaimed, becos tickets are way cheaper (think $200 that could contribute towards other worthwhile pursuits, such as a new bag, or new shoes....or presents for everyone!). And I have had people question my status in the US. Am I here to study, or holiday? Ahhh... details, details! Well, my answer to that is, think of this as an extended holiday with the aim of somehow getting a degree in the end. There, doesn't that sound much better?
So folks, till Monday... HAVE A AWESOME THANKSGIVING/ WEEKEND! tra-laaaaaa.... bells are ringing, ding ding!
Also, a shoutout to people who will be spending their Thanksgiving holidays elsewhere:
- to Ruoxi, Peishan & Wellian who will be spending their holz down in Maryland with Gu... EAT MORE FOR ME! While you are stuffing your face in turkey, mashed potato, the 1000 pies, stuffing, spring rolls, fried rice (whahahaa), and wadeva else, I'll be having a $8 turkey-leg off the cart from Disneyworld! but I'LL BE BACK NEXT YEAR!
- to my father who will be celebrating his birthday on Friday the 24th. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Pa!

- and of course, baby Gerard Yeo who turns 1 on 26th! Whoa, why are so many of you celebrating on the 26th? OH MYYY, Gerard's 1. I am 21. OMG.
