For my Dad.

My dad asked me two nights ago if I just liked complaining on here.... Apparently I do. :P But he then said he wanted to read a positive blog post and then challenged me to think of three things that were good. Considering the week I'm having this week, this is going to be insanely difficult. So I'm going to try really hard not to complain and to talk positively this whole blog. Yippie. Wish me luck.
1. I'm really thankful for laughing cow cheese. Sales at Albertson's that make it super cheap and easy to buy makes my life! This is literally my go to snack... I come home from school and I pull out my crackers and cheese and study and snack.
2. Im grateful for headphones. Especially on the way to school in the morning. Its a cold lonely walk in the morning and so having that extra boost of Tommy Sparks or Daft Punk can make anyones morning. I can make it as loud as possible and I can feel like a model walking to the beat of the music. And then people don't even realize how cool you are.
3. I am grateful for my phone so that I can keep in contact with all of my family. Life can be lonely up here at times and it is nice to have my family just buttons away from me. I wish they were closer so I could see them more often and I could go home monthly but thats just not very plausible. Sigh. I miss my family a lot. I miss my mom a lot. I miss my dad a lot. I miss sitting at home at dinner with everyone. I miss saying prayers together and sitting together at church.
So there Dad! I AM grateful for things!


Happy singing!

P.S. But seriously, if you could keep me in your prayers this week, I would really appreciate it... This week has been brutal and I am just really stressed and tired. Thank you.
