HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYBODY!
This is the time of year that everyone gets to stuff their faces and Give Plentiful thanks for all the blessings they have.
More like, Americans thanking the Pilgrims and Indians for this lovely holiday that we get two days off for work and school. LOL. I mean, who does that!!! But it's just sad because the poor turkeys get shot up and cooked out for these days! This is where all the women swear they make the best stuffing, but for Samoans it's another family gathering where they get to pull names for the Christmas Gift Exchange and prepare for Christmas. Samoans usually cook their big ol' pua'as and palusami and umu talo and all the pies!! lol.
Yeah, and you think I'm excited? NEGATORY!!! lol.. Mom and Dad are in Samoa for Malua's graduation, so you know we aren't gonna have much to eat since it's just a house full of CHILDREN. lol.. More like Fiailoa, To'alua, Me, Peka and Piei!!! Free as a bird to just sleep and not have to hear the roll call from Mom to do all these feaus or 'tumu the tea'. lol. Nope, every man for himself right now! So while everyone's at home enjoying the gathering, we'll be at our house just watching t.v hoping that someone loves us enough to invite us to their big feast. LOL... Mea o le fiaola! Auuuooiiiii...
In any case, I love the holiday because of the splendid sales that the shops have. I'll be camping out at some store, whether it be Circuit City, Wal-mart or Best Buy, I will definitely be buying me a digital and video camera. LOL.. Magaia ga, If i can swipe me a t.v for my sister in Arizona, i certainly will do that too! LOL.
The Day after Thanksgiving has the biggest Sales which is why Amerika calls that day, "Black Friday". They sell Electronics for cheap, have giveaways for the first 10 or so people. My favorite Movies are being sold for $2.99 and the best digitals at $54.00, things don't get any better than that mayunnn! So although I won't be stuffing my face, I sure will be stuffing the stores' cash registers with my money for my goods! ha ha ha!
Anyways, happy thanksgiving everyone, I know people in the South Pacific don't really celebrate Thanksgiving but that's okaye, because during this holiday I always think of my families around the world.
I thank God that they're alive and well and that everyone is still in-tact.
I am thankful that my parents are in good health thus far, and that my sisters and brothers are alive and stilll giving me gray hairs too. (LOL).
I'm thankful that my church is still strong and that our faith is driven to continue to work for Him!
I am also thankful that there are still people in this world that pray for us as we pray for them.
I am thankful for my wonderful friends who still love me and give me a reason to laugh each and every day.
I am SOOOO thankful to the Lord for my loving family who is down for me and my family all the time. Who continue to comfort and support us during the rough and good times.
I am thankful that our family is always strong and "ONE" with everything!
Last but not least, I Thank God for all his mercy and grace on me throughout this year! I haven't been the best and have had many flaws, but with his guidance and help, I have been able to come out of the terrible habits I once had.
Thank you all and Thank you for reading my post!!!
