Last year's Thanksgiving, we started our first annual going American turkey dinner kind of Thanksgiving festival.. well. this year the second annual did not happen. Instead, we sort went Fujianese Thanksgiving norm celebration - Heading to the casino down in Atlanctic City.

 

Since I am not 21, I borrowed my cousin's old expired NJ ID that no one uses anymore.. one one side, I was lucky that I didn't get IDed.. but on the other hand, I think i should be sad that I look "older".. haha..

 

 

 

I lost about $30 in total.. playing slot machines.. I wonder what happens to Beginner's Luck.. the first time I went to a Casino in Monaco, I lost money, and now I lost money again.. aighh.. ye.. it is stupid since the machinese are basically programmed to guarantee wins for the Casino.. but it is quite addicting..  Lesson Learned - Play with rael people next time.. lol... oh.. what made me feel better is that everyone lost.. and i was actually teh one who lost the least amount of money.. it is always better when other people are suffering with u to.. haha.. human nature.. not a perfect thing for sure.

 

On the side note, the Chinese Wedding went really really well.. great job to all the CSA eboard and members who helped out.. YAY.. it could definitely be a rockin event that could be repeated every year.. (hint hint my future successors)..

 

Pictures would be uploaded when I get them.. in the mean time, here's my school's article on it --> CSA Chinese Wedding <<-- click link

Without me telling you.. you should note that today, Tuesday, Nov 4th, 2008 is when the next president of US would be decided..

 

If you can vote, make sure you voted!

 

As some of you might already know, I am a democrat, I supported Clinton, Gore, Kerry and Hilary then Obama.

 

To be completely honest, I was bitter after Hilary lost to Obama.. and for quite a while, I was juggling the idea of whether to vote for McCain or Obama.

 

McCain is old, verteran, has the old person charm to him.. and he is actually very funny (see his interviews)... Obama is young, ready to make changes, and very inspiring (see his speeches)...  However, I had a grudge against Obama because he beat Hilary.. although it is stupid to think that way.. but can't help it.. I am only human.. 

 

The thing that worried about me is that McCain is old, even though he is a maverick when compare to his party, he still followed a lot of policies put forth by the Republicans.. besides.. if he die, Palin would become the president.. which would be really scary.. Although I am a feminist, I would not vote for the ticket because Palin is a woman. She is clearly inexperienced.. Governor of Alaska.. wow.. that's impressive.. Alaska is like its own country in a way.. I don't think being the governor of Alaska would have prep her for the VP role..

 

On the other hand, Obama would certainly act differnt than the current republican runned white house... His policy for share the wealth looks appealing to me as I am not yet in the "rich income bracket". However, who knows.. 5 or more years from now.. I would probably switch to be a Republican.. hehe.. lol..

 

All and all.. you probably know who I voted for.. if not. wait for the result from NJ and you would..
