It is Thursday

It's the Thursday after Frankenstorm/the perfect storm/Hurricane Sandy

It's crazy all the destruction that was caused. 

My prayers are with those who were affected with the storm.
 I'm sure you have seen the photo's of the damages. they are breath taking.





Not to make light of this, but life still goes on.

And now more than ever it is good to be thankful for what we have.

So once again,  Thankful Thursday.... here we go!  :)

I am thankful for...

• Living in the midwest.  While the wind and rain did become harsher, it wasn't that too bad at all.  Tree's were toppled over.  Lines down.  It's crazy.  But I am thankful that everyone is doing well.  Hopefully everyone you know is also doing well.
• Having gone to Pittsburgh this past weekend for the AIChE (American Institute of Chemical Engineerings) Student convention.  I had a blast and now know a few of my classmates a whole lot better.  Which is great.  :)  
• For now knowing how to spell Pittsburgh.  I used to spell it pittsburge.  which is very, very wrong.  Its Pittsburgh.  :D
• For being able to paint my nails.  this is my latest creation I did in preperation for tomorrow!

 

•  Being asked out by a boy!  Who isn't in my classes.  it's nice to feel wanted.  And i'm willing to see where this goes.  Who knows?  It's something I needed.  
• I also had an interview with a company called Lubrizol and while I think the interview went well, I didn't get the internship.  :(  But life goes on.  I was very relaxed in the interview and thought it went well. Next time.... Next time. 
• Friends
• family.  My brother might have lime disease, which is like mono in the fact that you can only tell if you have had it in the blood test.  Not if you currently have it ongoing.  but that might explain his medical mystery.
• Having had so many opportunities.  they have helped me become the person I am today.
