// On some other stuff //

Oh yea� Did the whole Thanksgiving thing with just my family, not the extended peeps. We had Chinese Buffet, YES! Gotta love that (actually it wasn�t too great) I think Thanksgiving is losing it�s meaning in the midst of everyone wanting you to start spending your money early for Christmas. Went over to Franny�s for some Turkey and the traditional Thanksgiving meal. Awesome! Friday was the first annual Black Friday Extravaganza. Frances found out that Camarillo was open at 12AM so instead of my original plan of Morongo then Cabazon we did Camarillo then Macy�s. We spent a lot of time in line at Banana Republic, it was like a half an hour line to get in and a 2 hour line inside the store to pay. INSANE! I�m not quite sure if we got super deals, but yea� I guess it was good considering what we could have paid. Afterward we walked to some other stores but did not have the energy to wait anymore. We were going to go to Guess but decided to hold off since we were trying to go to the sample sale in Downtown in a few weeks. Gap had this huge line that was totally insane. I thought people were going to get Walmart crazy, but they didn�t. We just went to Calvin Klein to get some stuff� but yea not super deal grabbing. Not until we got to Macy�s that is! Drove back to the valley to go to the Macy�s at Topanga Canyon. Awesome! Really great deals! I did most of my Christmas Shopping there. After Topanga we went to Fry�s to see what else we could get� whatever was left of the morning madness. Came home with a blue tooth adapter and a new external CD-RW because of my messed up laptop (which ironically allowed me to start detecting my internal CD-RW but doesn�t burn well) I think next year I�m doing electronics, it just sounds so much better. Still didn�t get a super deal but I got so so deals throughout the day. My car was pooped all fell asleep on me on the way home (which was okay) I freaking knocked out when I got home. Props to the participants� Angela, Franny and Luca! (pictures later) I hung out with Jenn and Harold on Saturday. Jenn and I did a little bit of shopping and took pictures with Santa!!! It was great! I was happy to see them. After our shopping we met up with Harold to eat some sushi at Kabuki. Good times! Afterwards I went to go study with Angela. We go to this Starbucks that has an Office Max in the plaza. I walk in and while I�m paying for my highlighter I see on the table a clearance table. It says, �External Hard Drive� and it ended up being $65.00. The reason why it was on the clearance table was because the manufacturer did not print the size of the drive on the box. That was it! Finally the deal of the weekend! It was like half price� awesome stuff. Finally my technology is making me even more happy! I can burn CDs and I have an external hard drive. I�m a happy camper. Haha� and I�m complaining about not having time to study? Yea� talk about a fun time (wasted!) Yes! On an even lighter note... while with my mom today, I brought up with her how I wanted a tattoo... she said she didn't care. She said it was cool!!! AHHHH YEAH! Moms will not kill me if I get a tattoo. That's so cool!
