Thank you

I know it's cliche, but yes, I am making a thankful list. Thanksgiving was last week and for the first time in my memorable life we didn't start dinner out by going around the table and saying something we were thankful for.

I am thankful for school. It's kicking my butt and I honestly don't know if I'll pass this semester and there are time i am legitimately worried about failing out of college. But despite my grades I really am learning so many things that I could learn anywhere else.

I am thankful for my voice teacher who has the patience of Job with me. And is also one of the nicest people have ever met.

I am thankful for my family, despite how crazy they can make me. I am grateful when we get to spend time together, and for the opportunities to see them.

I am thankful for extended family and all the food and love they provide. ;)

I am so incredibly thankful for my friends. The Lord has blessed me with some of the best friends a person could ever ask for. They listen to me be sad when the guy i like asked out someone else. They listen to me be happy when good news come my way, they keep being stubborn and buying me lunches. I had one friend who gave me a rose over the weekend for no other reason than he thinks that every girl needs to be given a rose every now and then (he came to visit Logan and brought roses for his friend girls up here) They know how to make me laugh when i feel like crying.

I am thankful for LDV. I am so incredibly thankful. I still and constantly in amazement about the wondrous blessing it is to have LDV in my life. My family came to LDV last monday with me, afterwards my mom came over to me and said "I will never again question if this is worth your time." She had been worried considering how close i came to mental break downs at the beginning of semester. There is such a love involved with this group of incredible incredible people.

I am grateful, so very grateful for the Gosple in my life. I know that I am no scriptorian. I can't remember references or stories. But i know without a doubt that my Heavenly Father loves me and is intimately aware of my life. He is in the finest details of it. And i notice that far more than i notice big things. But thats just always kind of the way i've been.

I am thankful that I have never had crazy roommate. (crazy in the sense of we fought and they were just terrible experiences. All of my roommates have been a little crazy) I always seem to get along and I've never had any major blowups. I hope i can make a family life like that someday.

Basically, despite how hard it is right now I am grateful for life. I usually like it that way. I never learn very much from easy things.If its not hard i don't bother noticing it...I don't try to be that way, but i just kind of am. And it's never been to hard that the Lord didn't give me strength to make it just one more day. And sometimes just that one more day is all you need.

thank you.
