Little Thankful Things

It is the third week of school, and I am drowning in homework. In the meantime, here are a few things I am grateful for:

• Classes that challenge me to think critically and creatively about what I learn and love
• The evening breeze through my window
• Coming back to my residence hall and being greeted by my residents playing Wii 
• Sunday morning pancakes
• Target trips
• Family skype sessions
• Sunset skies
• The smell of fall in the air
• London Fogs (they never get old)
• Midnight phone conversations with long distance friends
• Visiting a former professor during office hours
• Finishing an essay in one day
• Singing at the 10pm Mass
• Viewing my brother's senior pictures
• Salt and Straw flavors of the month

I am still transitioning into the workload of my semester. Since I am taking all upper division classes, it is much more intense than my previous two years, and I am excited for the challenges, but working out my time management. Looking forward to writing more in the following weeks!
