Gobble Gobble Gobble
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!This has been one of the most interesting Thanksgivings ever. It started on Friday where (for the first time) I enjoyed the Chem lab! I don't know how that happened...actually I do. The usual Chem TA wasn't there and the guy who substituted was really fun and I didn't feel stupid whenever I asked a question. That's something to be thankful for :). Skip Friday night, where I watched Flight Plan and ate waaay too much popcorn, and Saturday, and move to Sunday.
For like the first time ever we had someone over for Thanksgiving! It was Nancy's sister Christine who's in Halifax for 6 weeks for job training. It was so fun getting to know her and filling her in on all the things to do around Halifax (which took a whopping total of 2 minutes...jk...well, maybe not). I don't know how I would handle being away for Thanksgiving. It would definitely be more difficult to think of things to be thankful for. Something I'm thankful for right now: apple pies and pumpkin pies...yummm...and Thanksgiving leftovers...I'm gonna have dreams about turkeys tonight!!! Gobble Gobble Gobble...haha...maybe I'm turning into one :).
Here's a pic of Christine, me and my sisters!
Something that I'm really struggling with right now is letting go of things. Accepting the fact that, although I am only 18, I am getting older and time is totally flying by. Accepting that relationships are changing like waves in the ocean and that there's nothing I can do about it. Accepting that I can't be with more than one group of people at one time - crazy as it may sound, that's the hardest thing for me right now.

Hey girl ... man I totally resonate with what you said about letting things go... the exact same things that you mentioned actually. Not to long ago, I was trying to figure out my weekly schedule and I wrote down stuff that was important for me to do ...and I realized I had written more hours of stuff to do than I had in a day ...and this was hard to take because I really felt I needed to do all those things. I was humbled and really realized I needed to let things go and search after God to see what really needs to be done and what has to be released ... bittersweet feeling, eh? Still figuring out what has to be let go ... glad someone else is there too!
