Thanksgiving

So today is American thanksgiving which means its all over the internet, naturally. So I've decided to jump on the bandwagon and share some things I'm thankful for, even though I'm not American, because its not been an easy few months for me and I think that this is important. So, here are some things I'm thankful for:

  • My university course. This is honestly the only reason I haven't given up on being here so far. I am unbelievably thankful that I am genuinely interested and enthusiastic about my subject material, it makes things a lot better and easier all round.
  • My mum. Since moving away from home, I have become a lot more appreciative of my mum, everything she has done for me and the fact that we get on so well, our relationship has changed for the better these past few months. She is the one person who I know will never ever let me down or walk out of my life. 
  • My Daniel. My boy My best friend. I don't know what I'd do without him. Sure, we're miles apart, don't see each other a lot and our phone's don't always like us but I am grateful that he is a part of my life and in my head every day inspiring me to be better and more like him.
  • Skype. This has been a lifesaver for me since September. Its let me talk to my mum every day and see  and talk to my best friends even though we're scattered across the country.
  • My placement group. I might not know them well or see them any time other than the days we're in school but there's something about the group that just makes me feel better, like part of a little community and that means something here.
  • Pictures. The first thing I did in my university room was put my pictures up around my desk and I am so so glad. I get to look up and be reminded of the best times I've been lucky to share with the best people. They always make me feel better.
  • Team StarKid. This group of goofballs have given me my internet home and helped me meet the best people, the ones who understand me. They are able to bring a smile to my face so often and have honestly made me the person I am today, a person who I don't think is too bad if I'm honest.
