a day late, and a buck short, story of my life....
this thanksgiving i realized that I am thankful for many many many many many things.
my REAL friends. they are fantastic, interesting, passionate, and caring. what would I do without them?
my family. as independent as i am, they are always there for me in case i fall. they are quirky and truly loving people.
my animals. they keep me sane and allow me to relax, even in the most stressful situations.
music. it allows me to drift off into my own world.
mistakes i have made. i've learned a lot about life from mistakes that I have made this year.
school. as busy as i am, it keeps my life structured. my profs this semester are sincere, interesting people.
my cousin. i know she is counted as family, but she gave me something to put my heart and soul into. she was trapped in the hurricane, and even though those weeks were hell, she made me realize how grateful i should be to have what i have.
cougar mountain cookies. they kept me going on all those late night in the library.
surfing. nothing is more fun or exciting than getting out in the water, even when it is 30 degrees and staying out there for 6 hours at a time, even when seals try to jump on your board. and if i'm thankful for surfing, that means i am also extremely thankful for wonderful folks like stacy and sean that introduced me to it and come with me and invite me whenever we go. i'm going again in less than 2 weeks! yay.
independence. i like doing things on my own and i am grateful that i have the opportunity and the drive to do things on my own.
off i go to do homework then go to work. <3 love you all.
