Happy thanksgiving everyone! No matter what political view, religious view, personal view you have about Thanksgiving, I hope today you have to chance to sit down at the dinner table with some loved ones and be thankful for all the things you do have.

My family had never been about going around the table and saying what we are thankful for. Therefore, a couple years ago, I started it and it has become something we do every year. Today, I want to share a couple of those things with you guys, who are my USG family. I will keep these all USG oriented because this is one of the biggest parts of me now.

I am thankful for:

-USG’s doors being open for me, especially, when I need a space of my own to focus

-the friends I have made this semester. My TU Cohort friends (C/O 2019), my coworkers for the student bloggers, in the SAS Suite, and in Student Ambassadors

-the amazing professors and bosses I have gotten a chance to know and work with.

– the opportunities USG has to express myself

– the Café ladies who give me my chicken tenders with such love and care

– the people who have been there to hear me complain and answer questions for me

– the people who have been able to put a smile on my face, even in the worst of days.

–my scholarship donors, Mr. and Mrs. Kendall, for helping me meet some amazing new people and pursue my dreams.

-Dr. E because he always shares such inspiring words with everyone to help us persevere!

Thank you USG for everything! I am also really thankful that on this busy day, YOU took the time to read this post!

Thank you. Eat well, and enjoy your day!
