A Thanksgiving to Remember

Hey it’s Thanksgiving again! Turkey, Turkey, Turkey!!!

Like previous years, the annual Thanksgiving soccer and potluck was also hosted by our lovely associate; the Malaysian Students Association of McMaster University (MyMAC) in Hamilton, Ontario, this year on Saturday, October 11.

The morning kicked off with the traditional friendly football match between MASAT and MyMAC. This is the fourth time the event was held, and for the past three years, luck was not on our side when it came to the football match. Well, as fate wold have it, this year proved to be MASAT's era of sports glory. After the phenomenal wins during MySukan 2014 in Ottawa, the winning streak continued with MASAT 'slaughtering' MyMAC a staggering 4-1!

Football!

After the game, we were invited by the hosts for lunch at one of their houses with their home made roasted turkey topping the agenda. This year, MyMAC was generous enough to roast 3 turkeys to fill up our stomach.

Yummy! It was finger lickin' good

Big crowd eh?

Although the day was a little bit chilly, it continued on being more and more interesting. We took the opportunity of being in Hamilton to see its wonderful geography. Webster Falls was so amazing, just like the Niagara Falls but a lot smaller. We hiked to Dundas Peak to enjoy the view of the sunset. But sadly, the disappearing of the sun over the horizon tell us that we should be heading home.
