Happy Thanksgiving!

It's thanksgiving and I think it's hardly celebrated among us in Malaysia.
I still remembered last year, i was at Vietnam, explaining to the Vietnamese the origins of thanksgiving day.

It all started with a ice breaker what they are thankful for. Most gave the general answers -> thank God, thank their parents ... and thank their friends.. and their close ones..

It was basically to give thanks to God for the harvest for the year.
And the next day, being Black Friday -> it's the start of Christmas season shopping!

Two years ago, I still remembered my ex colleague telling me that her hubby would be there waking up as early as 5am queuing up to get good buys!
and many many ppl are out there SHOPPING.. how envious!

My colleauge was looking at google, trying to understand the 'right' spelling to be used. I finally checked it from Wikipedia , and found that 'nett' is BRITISH and 'net' is AMERICAN. No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.

An afternoon at Dannok

Living at the northern side of Malaysia makes it really convenient and easy to go 'overseas'. For us, going to our neighboring country, be it Thailand or Singapore by land or by flight is really easy. I'm always a fan of Thai food, and with the remaining Thai bahts that I had since my last Bangkok trip (which I didn't finish even crossing the border a couple or times), I decided to go Dannok for FOOD again. So, it's a day trip or rather, half day tour to Dannok For the past few weeks, I was searching for insta / blog /facebook posts if there is any other new hangouts in Dannok, but sadly, I couldn't find many bloggers who write about it. The funny part is, I already blogged about it two years ago. The immigration complex in Malaysia is new. I nearly couldn't recognize it, while passing to get our passport checked. As I didn't want to drive over, we parked our car at the Zon Duty Free. As I entered, I took the wrong ticket (which parking rate is RM3...
