GOBBLE GOBBLE GOBBLE

I would like to wish everyone the happiest of Thanksgivings. It's odd, not being home and celebrating with my family. The Americans here put together a wonderful meal the other day, so I've had my share of turkey, stuffing, and mashed spudados. I think it's just about time to make a list of things that I find myself being thankful for this year:
1) Having the opportunity to be abroad. It really is a miracle that I've made it here. A lot of people aren't afforded this type of opportunity, and I really shouldn't be taking anything for granted here.
2) Having great friends and family. I miss you all!
3) Being healthy
4) Getting interviews... I may or may not have an interview at a sneaker magazine on Monday! Plus- L'Oreal is up and coming..
5) Having sudden, unexpected, an great memories of my mom. The other day I was walking back to my place when I hear Bobby McFerrin's "Dont Worry Be Happy" playing from some cars stereo. I don't know how to explain the feeling that came over me, or how to explain why I correspond that song with her, but it was great.
There are so many things to be thankful for. As you sit around the table eating deliciously scrumptious food, remember how good life is.
Tomorrow I go to Scotland to visit a friend from high school. I'm looking forward to writing about all the adventures that await me.
Gobble gobble gobble, munch chomp yum.
