My Thanksgiving Break

My Thanksgiving break was great. On Wednesday, my mom decided to have an early Thanksgiving. We ate turkey, noodles, and rice. As for dessert we had apple pie and cherry pie. Afterward eating, I drove to Springfield and visited my best friend Sarah. When Sarah and I met up, our first destination was her boyfriend's house. She bought food or him. We stayed there for a while then headed to her workplace. While Sarah was working, I ate my favorite noodles Rice Powder Noodles and played on my laptop at Sarah's workplace. After Sarah's shift was over, Sarah, her boyfriend named Halcyon, and I headed to the Movie theater and watched Penguins Of Madagascar. When we first reached the theater, I realized that it has been about one years since I have been to the theater. The last movie that I watched at the movie theater one year ago was Great Gatsby. After watching Penguins Of Madagascar, Sarah and I headed to her apartment while her boyfriend went home. During the next day, Sarah, Halcyon, and I went out to eat at "Friday's." all decided to head home back to the country side for Thanksgiving. It was an hour drive back home and we all decided to follow each other. Because I was the slower driver, I was the last one in line for driving and last one to reach home because my house was the farthest one from Springfield.

The next biggest event that happened during my Thanksgiving break was the Hmong New Year. One month before the Hmong New Year, Sarah and I planned on singing for the New Year, but since we both lived one hour away from each other it was going to be hard for the two of us to practice singing. Then later we decided not to sing because Sarah was not sure she was going to get the day off. Since Sarah was not sure she was going to get the day off, I was unsure about whether I wanted to go to the New Year. Luckily, Sarah's boss was nice enough to let her get the morning shift off and worked during the evening shift. The Hmong New Year was just like every year. I saw many friends and family who I have not seen in years because everyone grew up and went to college, got married, or moved away to a different state or county. During the morning of the New Year, I woke up early to get ready. Little did I know that it would take me three hours to get ready. I guess this is what I get for not having any cosmetic skills. At the New Year, was also there. She and I were running around every where and getting everything ready for her sister, Selena, because she was going to dance with her dance group and sing for Sarah while Sarah was dancing. For Selena's dance group, it took Sarah three hours to help put their clothes together. Around four o'clock was the time when Sarah was getting ready to go back to Springfield because her night shift, so I decided to leave also.

Thanksgiving break went by very fast. I guess it is because I enjoyed it. I am very happy that I saw many of my friends and family.
