Life as a (young) expat here in Taiwan is generally pretty cool. But the one thing that I dislike is when it gets close to Thanksgiving (and later on near Christmas). Maybe it is since I don't have an oven to cook with, maybe since it is in the low to mid 70's outside right now, maybe it is since Taiwanese people don't really eat turkey or cranberry sauce, or maybe it is just being away from home and missing the whole feeling of the season.
There is just something missing about it over here. Then again, that just may be since Thanksgiving isn't celebrated here among the locals so the feeling that goes along with it is missing. It is just a feeling like something is missing.
Unlike last year when I worked late (hence a dinner by myself), I have a nice dinner with the ladyfriend planned tonight. We are going out to a restaurant/bar that is breaking out all the trimmings. I am pumped!
