Classes have finally come to an end but spending countless hours in the library studying for finals, writing term papers and preparing presentations is slowly torturing all of us. It's times like this when we're running on little to no sleep that really takes a toll on us and we seem to see more of the negative in life than the things that make us happy and the things we are thankful for. Here's a reminder for you for some things you might be thankful for.
1. Family
The ones who always have our backs and are our number one fans through thick and thin. After all, would we really be here if it weren't for them?
2. Friends
Always there to pick you up when you fall down, always there to laugh and cry and of course... always up for a food run at 2 a.m.3. College
The opportunity to go to college doesn't present itself for everyone. Take advantage of it and be thankful for it because it's the best four years of your life all while preparing you for the rest of your life.
4. Health
So many people take this for granted. Having good health is one key factor to living a long and happy life. Stay active. Stay fit. Stay healthy.5. Dogs
I'm so sorry if you're allergic. There's nothing cuter than a dog and they never fail to put a smile on your face. Seeing a dog on a college campus is a complete standstill -- everyone has to stop and pet it.
6. Food
We all love food, but never seem to be thankful for the food put on our plate. Remember growing up how we all complained that we didn't want to eat this or that for dinner? Just be thankful you have a plate of food in front of you.
7. Ice Cream
Whether it be being stressed out over a term paper or a bad break, ice cream is the answer to all our problems.8. Freedom of Speech
This is really important because without it, we would never be allowed to speak what's on our mind. Freedom of speech allows for truth.9. Coffee
Dear coffee, thank you for waking me up in the morning and for helping me pull all nighters to finish last minute papers, assignments and studying.10. Showers
There is nothing like a shower in the morning to start off your day, at night after a long hot day or after a nice workout at the gym.11. Technology
12. Music
We all listen to it, we all love it. Shout out to all my country fans.13. Netflix
14. The Opposite Sex
Whether your best friends, friends with benefits or even dating -- can't live with them, can't live without them. For some reason, it always seems like there's less drama with the opposite sex.
15. United States Armed Forces
We wouldn't be where we are today as individuals or as a nation without our men and women in blue or the countless number of men and women overseas fighting for this nation. The next time you see an active member of the armed forces or a vet, say thank you.16. Freedom
Take a second, look around. Always be thankful. We may never have everything, but at least we have something.
