Things I'm thankful for!
Just like the title says! :)
The 5 serious things I'm thankful for...
1. Family, friends - always my #1!
2. Still lovin' my classes and UMD! Got to give a shout-out to my main advisor, who is just awesome and has helped me to not only make a plan that will hopefully lead to me graduating in 2014, but she also suggested double-majoring in Women's Studies - a fantastic idea that, despite having taken (and loved) a bunch of WMST classes, I hadn't even considered. Turns out that those WMST classes I'd taken to fulfill HIST requirements actually fulfill a number of the WMST major requirements as well. So, now I'm a HIST/WMST double major! Exciting stuff!
3. It's been a year since my MS diagnosis and I'm doin' fine, both in general and with my daily injections (an icky thing, but thankfully pretty easy!). :)
4. OCD's doin' fine too, yay!
5. Enjoying the little things. It's hard to do, sometimes, but goofing off, relaxing, or taking time to waste time is a beautiful thing.
The 5 not so serious things I'm thankful for...
1. Music, music, music! Listening to my most-loved tunes - and discovering new ones - is my favorite thing to do.
2. Movies, movies, movies - snagged for cheap (I am the biggest cheapskate, haha!) from Amazon or used CD stores, watched on Verizon FiOS, or streamed through Netflix! (Netflix is also great for studying or working on papers: for some reason, I streamed Family Guy a lot in the background this year.)
3. Internet, internet, internet. My one true love.
4. Magazines, magazines, magazines!! Whether music (like MOJO, Uncut, etc.), pop culture (Entertainment Weekly), or beauty/fashion-related (Glamour, Allure, et al), I just love me some mags.
5. Um, can't really think of anything else!!
Take care and cheery bye! :)
