something to be thankful for

I know its been pushing a month since my last blog. My uncle reminded me yesterday that some people actually try to keep updated about the happenings of my life through this blog... but between classes, tests, friends and fun its always hard to remember to spend a moment or two and update this bad boy.

So in honor of thanksgiving... I would like to say that I am unbelievably thankful for my friends and family in seattle... but also, and maybe more importantly at times... my new friends at school. They have been pivotal to my feeling included, involved, appreciated and loved when classes got hard, conflicts arose and unexpected things took place. I just thought I'd post a picture of these wonderful people that we took when we went ice skating last wednesday. Whether they are study buddies, killer ultimate players, dynamite back rub givers, meal suppliers, or just wonderful friends who are there for me, I couldn't have made it this far (even though its only been 10 weeks) without them.

So thanks karen, james, ryan, kristen, annie, stacey, alex, kevin, holly, kelsey, isaac... and everyone else who didn't go ice skating with us
