In the Spirit of Thanksgiving

                Happy thanksgiving everyone! Oh no! The snow is beginning to melt! Usually, I look out my left and look at the beautiful snow covered rooftop of my neighbor’s house, but now little bits of the black tiling of the rooftop is peeking through. It reminds me that the weather is getting warmer, and the snow is soon going to be gone. I really liked the frosty winter wonderland, and it makes me sad to see it go.

                Thanksgiving is all about giving thanks, yes? Therefore, I’ll write a post giving thanks (yet again) to all the wonderful people in my life. I think I’ll leave them anonymous… although they’re probably pretty obvious. If I forgot you, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re any less important to me, it just means that I forgot you. That sounds bad, doesn’t it? Well, if you know me and my memory, it’s really not that bad…

Hi, thanks for putting up with my random antics and having the most patience and kindness out of everyone in the world. You’re absolutely fabulous, and I’m really glad that I met you ♥. You love me unconditionally, and I’m extra grateful for that. Oh, and thank you for music. Definitely. Before I knew how to get music myself, I’m pretty sure I bugged you forever. And listening to and watching random vids with me.

Hey you, thank you for extraordinary hugs and happiness! Your hugs are always full of joy and warmth, and I love them forever. You’re such a strong support, and full of fantastic-ness like cookies and generosity. I like sweet things. And you! You are so sweet and lovely and fabulous and I could eat you up nomnomnom. Just kidding, I prefer you in the non-eaten form. You’re a wonderful person, and your kindness makes you glow! I love you ♥!

Thank you for the world! You’re always there to listen to my problems, even when everyone else is absolutely tired of listening to them. You’re willing to be anything that I need you to be, no matter how obnoxious that role might be to you. You’re my other half (platonically), and thank you for making me complete (platonically). J Thank you for your fluffy coats, for your kindness, for our laughs, for the memories, for your friendship ♥.

Thank you for being yet another wonderful new addition to my world. Thank you for listening, for being you, for sharing, for trusting me, for sharing my interests, for laughing, for making me laugh! I love that you actually like what I like, and I can show you random things and expect you to enjoy it. Thank you for having a wonderful sense of humor, and being everything you are.

Thank you (more than one person) for just being you, and getting to know me. I know I’m not the easiest person to get along with, nor to hang out with, or even to interact with. Thank you for giving me a chance, and I hope you didn’t regret it. You are fabulous people yourselves, and I’m glad that I got to know you too! It always makes me happy to discover new things about people, and I’ve discovered so many new things about you! Thank you and I look forward to the future.

Thank you for being my “siblings” and entertaining me J. It actually does mean a lot to me, and thank you for being those people in my life.

Thank you all for making me laugh and smile! You are wonderful people, and I’m so lucky to have you all in my life ♥.

                Oh, and thanks to Korean idols for being the most awesome thing ever. Here’s a picture to show my utter devotion (that, and I made a pledge to myself to post a picture up every day):

Assigned Blog Post #6 - I'm so thankful for you

So, the second I read the prompt for this, I thought of Inx. I am ridiculously thankful for you (and your blog, but that’s kind of a different reason). Thank you for always being there for me, and holding me up when I collapse. I can really be myself with you. And sing randomly on the bus and on the streets, and feel at ease with. And there are so many other people who kind of have the same role as you, but I’m singling you out because well, I LOVE YOUR BLOG (oh and you’re just definitely always there. No matter what. Whenever I need you, and I need you a lot. BECAUSE I’M A HORRIBLY NEEDY PERSON. And you listen to all the angst I have, all of it, in all its repetitiveness, over and over again. As long as I need to say it, you’re just always there to listen. Thank you so much, and I love you forever for what you are for me). Your blog – it just kind of expresses everything that I’m thinking of ever… it’s like you see what I see. Always. IT’S LIKE YOU’RE IN MY HEAD. But in a non-creepy fashion. Now, I’m just worried that I will fail with the linking to your blog. Because I cannot link very well. Oh, and your blog is fabulously written. It’s moving, touching, and All Sorts of Fabulous. I think the best thing about it is that I completely and absolutely relate on like five different levels. Or five thousand.

Really, I’m not telling you anything you don’t know. Although I might be quite insane about it right now. And I’m a bit curious as to why this whole “gratefulness” thing has been brought up – I mean, it’s great and we should definitely think about it more than we do now (taking things for granted like all the time), but there isn’t even a holiday to bring it up. So I don’t know.

Who else’s blog do I love? Well… I skimmed over this one, and was horrified and amused by the pictures. Horrified by the horse man, amused by the AMAZINGLY ADORABLE SEAL and the hello kitty AK47 (which really makes me go why would you do that. No seriously, why?) but also giggle at the same time. And I love this one, which kind of surprises me, because it’s very different than the ones I normally like I guess? But it’s quite similar to this one, and I guess I just have a certain style that I like. Maybe sarcasm. I’m not sure, I feel a bit out of it right now. And honestly, I don’t read very many people’s. Oh, I loved this post, even though it went a little bit fast. But it was poetic, especially at the end. I think I just read Inx’s, and then these once in a while when people link me to them. Because they are full of awesome and win. So I will read yours maybe someday… I read the “girl” post of a lot of people’s, and I kind of love Inx’s the best (oh, and this one. Because it's so different). So, I sound slightly obsessive of him. Deal with it.

Well, aren’t I just entirely angry these last few posts.

Thank you for making me smile

                Zzzzzzz! She jumped, still not used to her new phone and it’s ridiculously intense vibration setting. Of course, she could turn it off vibration, but the ringing noise is even more upsetting. Ping, ping, ping. With every letter she types, it makes the most obnoxious noise in the universe. Sigh. Why is everything out to annoy her? She ran her fingers through her brown-black locks, and blew of an exasperated breath. Who was it this time?

                She reached over and grabbed her phone. “If anything, it means that I don’t want you to change because you’re already pretty amazing.” An embarrassed smile broke the annoyed expression on her face as she read the message over and over again. Her cheeks tinged pink as she closed her eyes with a happy smile, feeling completely flattered. He really knew how to make her day better, didn’t he? Even after all the paperwork, the stress, and the insecurities, they were all wiped away with that little message telling her that someone appreciated her. Someone thought that she was amazing. Well does he leave a little note to tell you, you are on his mind? Enchanted songs and Disney birds chirped through her head for a moment as she savored the attention.

                She might have the best friends in the world. Even if she doesn’t have a prince charming, even if her love shattered her heart into a million little pieces, she always knew that she would have open arms to run into and cry. Arms that would hold her close as she spilled from the depths of her heart the secrets and heartaches, compassionate ears that would listen and nod understandingly. Smiling one last time, she put down the phone. Thank you, she thought.

                Turning her attention back to the monotonous application, she typed with her heart just a little bit warmer, her mood a little bit lighter.

End note: thank you (insert name here), for making me smile when I was feeling down. Thank you for making my heart ache a little less, thank you for making me smile a little more. You’re fabulous, and I wouldn’t give you up for the world.
