Today I am grateful for...
1. The light going through 100 South FINALLY being a green. It's a very rare occasion when this happens for me, so every time it does I almost consider a little sign that today something good happened. :)
2. Peace and hope. I am so thankful for the peace this gospel brings. Things have been kind of a little rough lately, yet I can't help but feel this overwhelming feeling of peace that everything will work out...as long I just keep going and doing my best.
3. My sisters. They are so supportive and always on my side- I love it.
4. Opportunity. In every challenge there is another opportunity and my life is so full of opportunities this semester! I am so thankful for being busy and being so productive. It makes me feel good and successful at the end of everyday. :)

Today I am grateful for....
1. acing my 1st anatomy test. And when I say 'ace" I mean it...I got 100%!!! That is a really rare occurrence for me in any class, so I am super excited about it! I should really be studying for my other anatomy test tomorrow, but instead I am using the last of my brainpower to type about how excited I am! :)
2. Rainy days. It's been overcast and cooler today, which has been a nice change for a day from the blistering sun. I love everything about rain. the smell. the feel. It makes me want to go cook something homey.
3. Good health. They were doing a health fair on the diagonal today and I got some tests done. The doctor was really impressed and said I am a very healthy girl! It made me feel good and really grateful because really...health is something that we so take for granted- until it goes away.
4. That good feeling you can't get rid of some days. I don't know what it is, but today I am just in a good mood. I have a headache and I really need to study, but I'm still just in a really good mood. It's great. :)

Today I am thankful for...
1. quiet time alone. I have a hard time getting into it, because I like to have company. But tonight I was able to just go on a bike ride and go to the temple for a couple hours and enjoy my sunday evening. It was really relaxing and peaceful to just sit and think.
2. Goals. I have been encouraging a couple of my friends to make goals, and I have been meaning to do the same as well! Tonight I finally took the time to sit and write down some of my goals for this semester. I really feel like it will help me keep my focus and have something to work towards. I'm still learning how to make good goals that are measurable and specific, but how better to learn than to practice!!?
3. My ward. I recently moved and am now in the 2nd ward- and I'll admit I do miss my old ward quite a bit. However, sacrament meeting today was so amazing. There wasn't a single silent moment because people just kept getting up to bear their testimony and share their spirit with the ward, it was great. Also I really love my relief society. It is so inspired and I love it. I love that I get to be involved with making a mormonad and that my ideas were actually listened to and taken and how inclusive the girls are. It is so awesome and makes me want to help others feel the same way. :)
4. Tender mercies. All weekend I have been thinking about Brian and tonight at the temple he happened to shoot me a quick text to see how my weekend was. I wasn't expecting to hear from him at all, but it meant a lot to know I have found a real friend in him, and no matter what he will always care about me.
