Happy Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow American friends!

It's definitely been kinda a weird day for me - my parents and I have been kinda sick and didn't really do much to celebrate this year, but it was still nice to spend some quality time together. I think the plan is to have more of a traditional Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow or this weekend though, once everyone is feeling more up to it. Anyway, I thought it would be appropriate to get a little sappy and share some of the things I'm grateful for this year:

I'm very thankful for my family and the close relationship I have with my parents, sister, aunts and uncles, and grandparents; they're just the best people ever tbh, and they're all so important to me. I'm also thankful that this school semester has been going so well; I feel like it's my best one so far, and I'm thankful for the new friends and experiences I've gotten this year, and also for my improved mental health, which has made so many of these other things possible. I'm thankful that I was able to go to Rome this summer, and that my sister's gap year has been going so well, even though I miss her.

And I could keep going, honestly! I have quite a lot to be thankful for this year, I'm realizing, it really has been a good year for me overall. Hoping this next year will be just as good and successful! <3
