My legendary weekend (Thanksgiving)

So my legendary weekend begins with a car accident on a Friday evening. No one was hurt, but someone had to pay a lot of money. The price of impatience. But that didn't damper the night cos Eric Prydz was in town and we were going to see him do his thing. The music was phenomenal, the energy was crazy, the vibe was awesome. In all, I don't think I've had more fun in my life. With my 2 favourite canadians with me (pheap and chrissy), it only made it better.

Saturday came fairly quickly, from having too much fun and we got ready to leave Ottawa and go back to kingston (home for all 3 of us). Most of saturday was spent resting and driving, then the 1st turkey dinner of the weekend came. Thanth cooked an awesome dinner, which tasted great! Pheap met Thanth for the first time (Thanth is the equivalent of my dad... he's great that way. ) They hit it off really well (which i still find hard to believe)and my babe even took his money at poker. Afterwhich, we all hit the club (another first in a looooong time for Thanth)and drained every last bit of energy we had. Going to bed after was the highlight of the day really.

Then came Sunday, my stress day. I was going to meet the parents. Everything went better than i thought.. and i think they like me? The pre-dinner (noodles and spring rolls).....OMG delectable. The dinner, the 2nd turkey dinner was great, the gravy, the ham, and the turkey... all great! Then we went out to play pool...i watched and gave support to the bf and is bro. I think I should learn to play pool properly... it seems stupid that i suck so badly.Then we rented Aladdin (Princess Jasmine :))watched it with his bro at home and then we all went to bed.
My bf's parents are funny, they remind me of home, just cos they're SO ASIAN. The vibe in the house (from khmer music)and the interactions between everyone, it feels like a real home and that was a great feeling.

By Monday, i think both of us were recharged and ready to go back to ottawa and cook our last turkey dinner of the weekend.So it was a slight rush back, just cos his parents decided to take a roadtrip and come up to ottawa too. By 7pm, the dinner was ready and everyone came and had a great time. Me and pheap are still the reigning scrabble champions *yay* and we just fun with good conversation, good food, great people.

So that's my weekend, and it was a well deserved one for all of us. I can't wait to have more weekends like that, minus the car accident. I can't wait till Christmas!!! I'm so excited!

Till next time... I'll post pics from the weekend up!
