50 Things to Be Thankful For
Oregon Optimist

Sometimes, throughout the craziness of the holidays, the small things get overlooked, and we often forget to appreciate what we have and who we have. Take some time this Thanksgiving to reflect on what you're thankful for, whether it be little things or big things.

I am thankful for…

  1. Netflix
  2. Good hair days
  3. The warmth of wrapping yourself in a blanket on a snowy day
  4. The times when you wake up and realize you still have time to sleep
  5. Warm blankets fresh out of the dryer
  6. Satisfaction of stepping on crunchy leaves
  7. Concerts
  8. Strangers who hold the door for you
  9. "Mean Girls," which you can probably recite as a monologue at this point
  10. Google
  11. Sunrises
  12. Sunsets
  13. Clean sheets
  14. Christmas lights
  15. Fuzzy socks
  16. Christmas movies
  17. Bagels
  18. Random acts of kindness
  19. School breaks
  20. Online shopping
  21. Hot showers
  22. A cozy bed
  23. Christmas cookies
  24. My mom
  25. Having a best friend
  26. Good health
  27. The Odyssey Online
  28. Candles
  29. Hand sanitizer
  30. Sunny days
  31. A clean room
  32. A good cry
  33. Summertime
  34. The first swim of the summer
  35. Finding something that was lost
  36. Acing a test
  37. Peppermint gum
  38. Compassionate teachers
  39. How me past has made me stronger
  40. Laughter
  41. Sweatshirts
  42. MLFH
  43. Heated blankets
  44. Advil
  45. A sincere group of friends
  46. Mom texts

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
