I think the quote, "Man is least him self when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask and he will tell you the truth." is saying that when someone talks about themselves, they don't want to reveal who they are. When you are talking to someone face to face they see who are from the outside, the way you motion yourself or the way you talk and think. They really don't know who are deep down, but by yourself you know exactly who you are. Maybe it's something you are self-conscious with about yourself, maybe something that you just don't want anyone to know. Everyday you may have a daily routine, from everything you do, to the way you talk, to the way people see you, they will recognize all those details about you. Having a mask disguising yourself, no will recognize you, you just as well seem like a stranger. In that way you can reveal yourself your inner secrets, because they aren't gonna know you are. Sometimes when you bottle something up for so long, you must have a relief to let it all out, and I guess that what it means when he says "he will tell you the truth."
Everyone has at least one or many insecurities, it could have to do with your personality or your appearance. In the quote, "give him a mask." it reveals that if you are hiding your insecurities, and if you are hiding away your insecurities you are not revealing who are completely. Having a mask, maybe that may make you feel like someone else and it's okay to let people know who are, if your the one not telling.
No one wants their true self to be opened up, having a mask hiding away will let you reveal yourself. I do think the quote is true because in reality no one in the world is perfect. Everyone has at least one thing that doesn't make them perfect. No matter what your probably gonna always have a secret hiding from others. Put on a mask and maybe you'll tell the world.

Thanksgiving Break
Let's see I had a very busy, long thanksgiving break. The first day of Thanksgiving break started on a Wednesday after having to go to school on Monday & Tuesday. (Which I thought was ridiculous) Anyways on Wednesday was a great day, and happened to be the best day I had through that week.
On that day, Willie was coming to Alameda, including Brandon. I went off to the 'Jack in the Box' bus stop and waited. I had been waiting there for quite an awful long time, because the buses were running slow and they had to first stop by the bank. Finally around 1:30 pm they had arrived, I was a little mad but I couldn't stay mad for long. I was so happy that they came by and we had walked around park street. We went by 'Quickly's' and got a quick drink and chickens. After that we had gone to 'Starbucks' to meet up with Kiet and Lina, later Joseph had came. We all hung out there for awhile, but Willie definitely got side track cause his good friend Sukin <- I think that's spelled wrong. came by and they were talking and catching up. We then later got a bite to eat and all ate burritos which was pretty funny, Joseph had left after. Then we all went to Kiet's house, we had lots of fun and laughs, and had a couple drinks and played cards. After a really great fun night we all had gone home.
Thursday, Thanksgiving Day. Today my mom went overboard, cooking and buying so much food! She always likes to over do it and cook so much food, we only have a family of five. Lucky thing we had lots of relatives come over this time and take plenty of food home. Anyways at the Thanksgiving table we had... A huge turkey, ham, pork, three different types of pie, potato salad, more potato salad, gravy, bread, sweet bread, cake bread?, fruit, kimchee lots of kimchee, and I think that covers about most of it. We had lots of our family come by and my cousins then invited us to watch the movie, 2012. It was a pretty good movie, but not the best. I didn't enjoy it, a lot of the times I was falling alsleep. haha
Well this is my Wednesday and Thursday of Thanksgiving Break, I will continue the week within my next blog. (:
