Thanksgiving Turkey

Hello everyone.. First of all, I want to say.. HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY!!! gobble..gobble.. I'm so excited for thanksgiving holiday because I had a long break until weekends, other than that... there was also "BLACK FRIDAY tradition" which shopping store usually give a great deal for all of us to shop.. What a nice holiday, before Christmas coming. So the plan for this year is I am having early thanksgiving dinner @ Lindsay's and her roommate's house, then I had another "REAL" thanksgiving dinner at John and Judy's Dahl house.

( as you seen in those photos, John Dahl cut the turkey.. YAY!! the turkey and juices inside it was taste so great, I have some of it.. and I like it so badly)

As I am waiting for them to prepare the dinner, I watched the football game between Green bay" PACKERS" and Detroit, Michigan.. the packers win though.. Bret Favre is so awesome during that game, I never seen such a excellent quarter back in all NFL ( National Football League)
then I took some photos from their heater..
( I like their houses)-- it actually like a cabin. =)

Here were John and Judy preparing for the food, the turkey and stuffing.
They taste so delicious... I LOVE IT!!! haha

A view that I have taken from their balcony, as the picture told us, we can seen downtown Duluth.. even the bridge and Lake superior, wasn't it beautiful???? ( with American flag on it?








Another thanksgiving dinner night at Lindsay's house.

Bagley Nature Area

So...Are you guys ready for the winter? I don't.
I miss summer... this week is the last week of fall and..guess what? Welcome winter...

Honestly, I hate snow, I used to dream about play with snow, make snowman from it, but as soon as I felt it in the last several years, Oh jeezzz... suddenly I realize that I love sunshine rather than snow.

So, here are some photos that my friend had taken from Bagley Nature Area, right behind Oakland apartment at UMD... aren't they beautiful?, even they just debious tree and just lost the chlorophyll thing and contain caretenoids that makes them pretty in colour... ( I didn't mean to be creepy in those thing but I just had biology test yesterday, so.. it still stuck in my head, it wont get over.)

well... any comment? just leave it up then.

Have a great rest of the week!!

halloween weekend

HI guys, sorry I haven't written anything in my blog for quiet a while, being a sophmore at UMD and working at grounds in the school year wasn't easy for me, I have hectic schedule everyday.. just make me so exhausted. I hope you guys will stay caught up for what i've been up to....Last weekend was really blast for me, It was a halloween weekend.

Lindsay and I watched the last home football games between UMD-bulldogs versus University of North Dakota- Maveriks @ James Malosky Stadium.It ended with 32-17 win for UND, but It was a great game. Both of teams played really well, anyway.. they will play against St. Cloud in next 2 weeks. I hope they'll win for the last game in 2007.

Here are some pictures :
