It has been a crazy week so far and I am more than stressed out with school and homework and tests. I will be so glad when this semester is over because it means that I will be able to take a break from all of this craziness! But looking back on the past couple days, I realized that sometimes it is really hard to find things to be grateful for... And when this happens, its usually because I overlook the little things that make me smile during my day. This week has been a testament to those little things :)

Today I am thankful that I was able to get out of every class early. This in itself was a little blessing. It was a typical Monday and it wasn't one of the good ones. I was having a hard day. There just seemed to be too much to do and not enough time to do it all in. And then I got out of my classes early! It didn't give me much time to get stuff done, but it gave me enough time to take a breather and relax if even just for a few minutes. I felt like I was going and going and those little breaks really help me out!

Today I am so thankful for the yummy sandwich that my wonderful husband made for me... and for my new boots that I got in the mail. :) Today was another really long, stressful day with not enough time to get everything done! I had a Biology test today that I spent three + hours studying for and 2 1/2 hours taking. It was SO hard! And because of class and work, I didn't get a break between classes and when I started studying, and I didn't get the chance to go grab food. Well Andrew is amazing and he makes really good sandwiches, and he brought me a sandwich and a snickers so that I wasn't going to take my test on an empty stomach. It really made me smiled and meant a lot to me that he did such a sweet thing. So I went and took my test and finished about ten minutes to ten at night. Needless to say, I was tired and frustrated and very discouraged cause I still had quite a bit of homework. But when I got home, the boots I had ordered online last week had come and it helped me forget about some of my worries.

Today I am thankful for my teacher, Sister Nelson, because she is helping me find a way awesome internship that will be in either exactly what I want to do or closely related! I feel so blessed to have her helping me because she is an OB/GYN and has the connections to get me an intership and because she is so willing to help! It also helps take some of the weight off of my shoulders of trying to find an local internship when I don't know anyone at the hospitals or clinics around the area because I utilize the student health center instead of the community clinics. I am very hopeful that something good will come of this!
It is interesting to see how the little things can really brighten your day! And finding something to be thankful for every day really helps you stay positive even when things get super stressful and hectic.
