Thanksgiving

It’s been a while since I had the time to post anything, but I think today warrants my taking a few moments to reflect on the past little while and be thankful for what has been going on.
Nouns (people, places and things) I’m thankful for:
- my cello ARCT diploma; finally completed my last cello exam, been putting it off for quite a few years
- Bo, my cello teacher; if it weren’t for him, wouldn’t have done so well on the exam and Bo’s just great
- Home! as in the GVRD as well; I wasn’t home for very long nor was the summer weather the best we’ve ever had, but I’m still really glad I have that kind of a home to return to. Summer trails and hiking roots are so nice; just a beautiful province.
- My parents, who stocked me up with tons of snacks before I had to leave for school again
- Frosh week; just briefly, it was one of the best times I’ve had in life. More to come on a different post. (Will slowly update life on this blog :)
- Speaking of which, halls; no halls, no voice throughout Frosh
- A great house, Landsberg Lewis, that I live with
- Great friends who made my turning alcohol-legal an unforgettable time
- More great friends coming down to Toronto to have Thanksgiving dinner with
- And more great friends who watched the NHL season opener with me last night
- And last but not least, hockey the game itself. I don’t think an explanation is needed for why I’m thankful for that ;)
Hockey season 2011-2012 started officially yesterday. Canucks played the Penguins, pretty intense game, but we lost in SO. More hockey rant on a separate post.
I apologize for the very sporadic post, but I felt like I needed to just get a list down somewhere to keep things in perspective.
It’s Thanksgiving, but it’s also midterm crunch time for a lot of students, myself included, good luck to everyone and
Happy Thanksgiving!
