Thanksgiving

-
I'm not really sure why American's celebrate thanksgiving. (I'm not ignorant, i really don't know) I don't know what this holiday is about other than what people say 
"it's time to give thanks and time to be grateful"

But then again, aren't we supposed to give thanks and  be grateful for what we have everyday? 
All the time? 
I was taught to give thanks when I get up every morning and give thanks before I lay my head to rest every night - it just seems like people wait until November so they can 
give thanks and post on social media 101 things they are grateful and thankful for. 

In other news, Black FRIDAY is so last year. 
People go crazy over Black Friday - those deals that only come once a year. 
I've never been to a Black Friday and I don't intend to start tomorrow. 
I'd rather enjoy my time at home and wait for everything to go on sale on CYBER MONDAY! 

See, that's the good thing about this technology revolution, 
I can actually shop in my underwear, from the comfort of my home, have the goodies delivered to my door, and NEVER have to leave the house and fight for that last kitchen-aid on the Walmart shelf. 

Have a happy thanksgiving everyone. 

If you're part of the Black Friday fans, please drive safe and no fighting over goodies. hehehe

that cheating *basket*

I’ve been debating this issue for a while now (ever since Coconut Girl blogged about affairs on the seawall and under the coconut tree) There’s this one girl I went to College with. WE aren’t best friends or even good friends. We just know each other and would usually make small talk when we meet at the isles in Foodland doing our Sunday shopping. I know her husband though. Quite WELL!!  And what a sleazy piece of *bleep* he is. The whole time they were together/dating/going out or whatever the heck you wanna call it, he’s been playing the poor girl. I know this because he tried his moves on me, BUT, major fail-didn't work. I was a very very good girl focused on school and the HOT Tongan boys-YUM! Anyways, they're married and have 2 little girlies. About a handful of people know he still does his usual; even some of her good friends know and I’m surprised they haven’t even told her. (or maybe they have but she’s being in denial?) He’s so good at being a sleaz...

Outrageous 'saogamea'

-
Am I the only one who thinks it's blardy absurd to donate/give/contribute to a 'faalavelave' for a very distant relative? ie: great grandmother's sister's son's daughter's son's wife's dad's passing away? COME ON, have you even met them before? This is one thing that irks me about the 'faasamoa', the need to give and GIVE even while we struggle to make ends meet or have absolutely NOTHING to give. Is this the faasamoa or is it just my family being 'fiakagaka/fiakele'? Whatever the case, I'm sick of it. I called home tonight to talk story with my parents, ONLY, they weren't home because they were off dropping off the 'fesoasoani' i le maliu a le aiga o Pai. I talked with my sister and I asked her who's funeral it was. Her response, "Who knows, (the big family matai) just dished out 'saogameas' saying it's family" To be honest, I don't mind the saogameas, as long as they're r...
