Happy Thanksgiving! Here’s a gorgeous HD video of the Northern Lights in Norway to enjoy. Definitely watch it in full-screen mode.

And just to keep the turkey day theme going, here’s one of my classmate’s article on The science behind turkey magic in the Monterey County Herald.

Thanksgiving is undoubtedly my favorite American holiday, which is funny since I didn’t really know anything about it before I came here. But getting together with family and friends and eating lots of delicious food is just such a great concept for a holiday…

And I guess this is also my 100th post! It’s kind of amazing, I’m not sure I thought this blog would last this long…thanks everyone who’s visited, I hope you’ve enjoyed what I’ve shared 🙂 I know I’ve been sporadic this quarter, but I’ve heard the next quarter is just a tiny bit less hectic, so hopefully I’ll post more then.

Just one more week left in this quarter, I can’t believe it, it’s really flown by. It’s been a lot of fun though, and I feel like my brain’s had to physically expand just to keep up with all the new things I’ve learnt. I also feel like it’s been a really long time since I’ve had to exercise my creativity to this extent – and the nice thing is, the more I use it, the easier it becomes…

But enough brain work, today it’s time to let all the blood go to my stomach and enjoy some Thanksgiving food.
