Thankful for October!

It's October! The semester is almost over. I still have a few more projects to finish though but that's not a problem. Chos! I'm just so thankful for all the blessings I've been given. We've been told as a kid to count our blessings. As grateful as I am, let me share with you a random list of the things I'm thankful for.
  • I'm thankful for the wonderful family that i am blessed with. I know we are not perfect but at my age now and looking back to my childhood, I am just glad of what my parents taught me. Now I can honestly say, they were indeed right. I know I am stubborn most of the time, I still am, but without their guidance, I would be a mess. So I'm thankful that my parents are both well especially with their health now that they're getting old. Tatay just reached sixty. Honestly, I'm feeling homesick already. I miss our home so much! 
  • I' happy to have met a few people at work who share the same kind of sick joke as I do. There's something weird about getting old. Jokes become oldies too. I'm just happy I get to laugh every single day with these people. 
  • I'm thankful that I am healthy and living a clean life. There's nothing much to say about it. It's a matter of discipline. 
  • I'm thankful for all the little things i experience everyday like getting the job done, finding the perfect bag, savoring a good meal, getting to work safe before it rains... 
  • I'm glad I can share all this happiness with my love--Rommel who supports me in all my craziness. He's been a kind spongebob for me--listening to me rant and complain about my stressful days in school and at work. I'm just glad he listens. 
 

Give me some credit here! I'm competing against a national athlete of Portugal--Joao (in green).
