we arrived at the destination of the day around 9pm local time. got to meet a lot of people. not sure whether i can remember all their name. let me see and try to jot down their names; william, joyce, emlyn, bruce, noreen, cliff, adrian and her borthers and sister, whcih i also don't remember the names, carlos and his wife, which i also forgot your name, helen, sam, letty, steve and the wife, sorry i totally forgot your name, mary-ann, devyn, jennifer, jesica; ok, i think that's all i can remember in terms of name. i'm pretty sure i forgot many of them. man.....sooner or later, my memory could ran out. hahha...j/k. and, on top of that, auntie noreen said all those are only about a fourth of the yvonne's family; oh my goodness..............r u kidding me.............??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! by this time it was about 11pm, dec 31st, 2008. i did get a chance to eat some stuffs that was prepared by people. the food was definitely great. after the long drive, yes...it was definitely worth it.
at this point, we gathered around a room to say what we were thankful for the past year that we were about move on from. then, we did something called white elephant. interesting; since i don't get to this many times. and, it turned out i got an egg peeler, and a box full of goodies. thank u, God and to the people that prepared and wrapped all that.
so at 0am of jan 1st, 2009, everybody stopped and watch the ball drop in new york city time square from tv. i give my friend a hug and say happy new year to everyone that i can reach to. afterwards, i just walked around the house, watched tv, talked to some people, and trying to decide where to sleep until about 2am, maybe. and, well...i think that's enough for day 3. seemed like not much activities were done, but i definitely felt i accomplished a lot. thank u, GOD. definitely looking forward to more of the trip and well....for the most part, for the new 2009 year. God bless...
