I love Thanksgiving. It is the perfect time to share with the family and enjoy great food. For me, it is time to watch my favorite Tv shows' Thanksgiving-themed episodes. It is so funny to see all these characters to confront their families and talk about hidden secrets.

The king of Thanksgiving-themed episodes is "Friends." It gave us nine amazing stories of Thanksgiving. My favorite one is when Brad Pitt plays Will, a former classmate of Monica, Rachel and Ross. I cannot forget the episode of old Thanksgivings when we can see all of the characters younger, or the Geller Cup, or Monica with a pirate patch.

The truth is "Friends" showed thirty-three reasons to be Thankful; let me share them with you.

1. Nobody has worse Thanksgivings than Chandler. 

2. Our families are awesome. Let’s face it; after Phoebe’s family, ours is just perfect.

3. Unagi. According to Ross, no everybody gets Unagi, but it sounds helpful.

4. You can love and lose a Richard, but you always can have a better second chance, a Chandler.

5. I can make better deserts than Rachel.

6. I am smart enough to not insert my head in a raw turkey.

7. I don’t have a crazy stalker. Joey got Erika who actually believed he was Dr. Ray Ramone.

8. I don’t have a crazy crush with a monkey (I don’t have to say more).

9. I don’t have a failure love like Gunter with Rachel.

10. My best friend is not in Aruba with my ex-fiancé, like Rachel, Barry and Mindy.

11. I have seen better stripers than Danny DeVito.

12. I am not a freaky cleaner like Monica.

13. The copy guy does not lie to me saying he is Ralph Lauren (and I know what Ralph Lauren looks like).

14. I don’t have a jealous and complicate boyfriend like Ross.

15. My friends believe more in my talent than Rachel, Rose, Phoebe, Monica and Chandler in Joey.

16.  My apartment is cleaner than Cheryl’s. (Do you remember Rebecca Romijn playing an anthropologist dating Ross?)

17. None of my ex-boyfriends left in hope of winning a Nobel prize.

18. I don’t have a Janice in my life.

19. I sing better than Phoebe.

20. I don’t have a sister making porn movies using my name.

21. I know my lobster is somewhere waiting to meet me (maybe I met him already, and I did not realize it).

22. I am not in love with my best friend partner.

23. I am not dating an ex of my best friends.

24. My hair does not go crazy with humidity.

25. I am working in a research in Russia getting no results after ten years.

26. I am not the public face of Gonorrhea.

27. Dr. Green is not my father in law.

28. He said the right name on the altar.

29. I have never run away at any wedding.

30. Joanna is not my boss or my friend’s date.

31. My job does not request to wear false boobs or roller skates.

32. Either Ross or Monica would give me a message.

33. Bonnie is not dating the guy I like.

I think I am forgetting the most important reason; I must have thankful because I can watch "Friends'" Thanksgiving-themed episodes any time.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
