Thanksgiving. Today is is my first major holiday outside of the US and away from at least one of my family members. This will not be the last either. Christmas is coming up soon and new years then my birthday. My birthday should be a major holiday seening is how it only comes around every four years. I should become really important, a household name then my birthday would be a national holiday. To be honest I am not that sad or anything right now. I havent had a big thanksgiving with my family in some years. Or any other holiday for that matter. I do miss my aunts` cooking though. Man can they cook. Well what am I thankful for? I have my health save for a cold, I have this wonderful opportunity to study in Costa Rica and learn a new language. I am also thankful for the support I have back home. So no I am not sad I just miss a lot of things, a hug from my grandmother, the smell of all that food coming from the kitchen. I can smell the food all the way down here. I miss my girlfriend`s smile and her hugs and kisses and her . . . lovin`. However I am greatful for the chance to be me in a different place doing diffrent things and seeing diffrent faces. Feliz dia acciòn de gracias.
