I Gotta Feeling...

I've realized that no matter what happens in my life, there is always something to be grateful for. Today especially for becoming a year older, being with my family, my friends, and having the many opportunities that lay before me. I made a promise to myself that everyday I would try to say at least ONE thing that I an thankful for...that way, no matter what, I always feel (even a little) lucky. So thanks to life for keeping me here a year longer and for giving me the opportunity to have experienced and lived through everything I have until this day in my life...
and here's a few other things that I am grateful for:


-I was born 19 years ago today (thanks mom and dad!)
-I got my eye brows done
-I had a delicious breakfast in bed (made by my mom)
-I talked to my grandma and the rest of my family in Colombia
-School was cancelled for the 128973892th day in a row
-I ate delicious food all day
-I have an amazing, funny and supportive boyfriend
-I went to karate and learned some cool moves
-I got to catch snow in my mouth as it was falling down
-My sister and her husband came over for dinner
-I felt young and old and happy and anxious, but completely content.
-I ate Mac&Cheese….with extra cheese :)
-I got a new ringtone for my new phone!
-I got TWO cakes, two sets of candles, and thus, two wishes!
-I also got some delicious chocolate fondue.
-According to superstition, my sister (who is pregnant) will have a girl…we’ll see if we’re right!
-I had all my family and amazing boyfriend around me, smiling and happy
-I got a new bronzer- thank god!
-I will also be seeing the DALAI LAMA in New York in May!!! yes yes yes!!!
-Lastly, I am now one year older and I’m feeling time pass by, which is bad in some ways but amazing for all the new adventures that await me! I can’t wait!

....what are you grateful for?
