New Years Eve

Saturday, Feb 13th. Yesterday I didn't feeling like doing anything and I got up really late. When I went down to pay for another night. The whole place was shut. Doors were locked and no one was around. There was a sign that said they were shut for the day. I didn't want to walk around so I went to go see a movie. I saw Percy Jackson because it was the only one playing in English at the time that I was there and I didn't feel like waiting around. It turned out to be quite good. Simple storyline but the special effects were good. The cinema was just like the ones in Canada and the UK. I had to put my jacket on cos the AC was so strong.

Today is Chinese New Years eve. When I got downstairs, I was invited to have breakfast with the owner. Then she invited me for dinner as well. Food! Sweet!

I met 2 canadians, John and shaun, that also came for dinner. John teaches english here and is dating one of the employee from the guesthouse. Shaun is john's friend, who decided to live in Thailand for a few months.



My cucumber garlic dish. Its been a while since I made anything in a kitchen. I decided to do a salad, nice and easy. I put in extra garlic cos I think everyone could handle it. In addition to my salad, Candy, the owner's daughter made a squid dish. Mo, made some Chinese sausages and there were a big plate of duck and chicken. Yummy, I love duck.

After dinner we hung out and played cards. This reminded me of home and chilling with friends.
