I was about to do a Its Ok Thursday post but I want to change it up a bit and just share with you all some of the things I am so thankful for right now….
ThankfulThursday


–My Family- They are seriously amazing. I know I say it a ton but they have been so supportive and even though I know my mom is terrified of me moving across the world she shows me nothing but excitement and support





–The Boy...this is going to get me made fun of but I am so happy to have him back in my life. I love him and I am so glad that we worked things out. He is also being amazingly supportive knowing that it means that I will be gone for a whole year. 



–My Friends…ooh this is also another one I say all the time but I love them 🙂 They are great and I am trying to spend as much time with them as I can before I go! 



–Opportunities! Yes seriously how many people get the opportunity to travel across the world to do something they love doing and get 8 job offers to do it? Not many! OOh and this is the town I am pretty sure I will be moving to: Zhongshan City 





-I am so thankful for blogging! I love being able to share my life with everyone and read about everyone else’s lives as well. AND I love all my new blogger friends…hopefully one day I will get to see them IRL! 


–The internet...haha I had to say this one! Without the internet I would not be able to go to school online, skype and keep in touch with people! 


–Everything...I think I am just very thankful for everything today. I don’t know why I woke up in such a great mood but I am just feeling so happy with my life right now. 

I think that’s it for now!
What are you thankful for today?
