Gratitude and "Thanksgiving"

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope everyone is having a good day, with family and food! =)
So then, some things I'm grateful for:

• A Home
• Good Friends
• An Education/School
• My Teachers ( I really do have great teachers)
• My Church
• The Scriptures
• The Temples
• Good Music
• Good Art
  
• A Cheerful Attitude (It takes effort, but I'm still grateful for it)
• Talents
• My Neighbors
• The Internet (there are so many things you can do for the good)
• This Beautiful Earth
• The Sky and Weather
  
• Good Health
• This Time I Live In (there will always be the good along with the bad)
  
• Having Time
• Generous people (to all those who give away time, money, and effort)
• Kind people (they make this world a better place)
• My Country
• Good Books
• My Mind and Body
• A Car (doesn't it make life so much easier?)
• Food (I also like to help cook)
• Clothing
• Clean Air
• Fun Games
  
• My Readers =)
  
• Emotions/Feelings
• Having Life
  

There are many other things I could list, these are just the things that come to mind, and that I feel would be okay to post online. There is a particular being that I feel especially grateful to, but perhaps this isn't the best place to write about it. =) I hope that each person has a wonderful Thanksgiving, and gives "thanksgiving" for the many blessings they have.

Stuff...

So... I've been finding that I write about once a month now. which I think is okay, as long as I write well. =)
I am continually finding things that make me happy (good music being one of them), and as Thanksgiving nears, I shall try to put up a list of these things(perhaps I'll start a list on paper?).
I have also started a writing journal, and I am comfortable writing in it, and drawing in it, and putting in random thoughts, because I don't have to turn it in as an assignment, or be required to show it to anyone, or worry about how it looks or sounds, because it's all mine!! muahahahahahaha! ^-^

I hope everyone is having a great day!

Personal Narrative Poem

A poem I had to write for English, my mom enjoyed it and said I should share it, so here it is, my personal narrative poem about my drive to Idaho.

Drive To Idaho

After school not so long ago

I took my sis’ to Idaho

Back off to school Katrina goes

Away from boring family woes

College life seems like lots of fun

Home-life doesn’t offer a ton

Concerning studies and knowledge

All of it is found at college

So off we drive, sister and Mom

And then there’s me, I tagged along

To go and get some hours driving

To get my license I’m striving

Start from South Weber, on we go

See the buildings and towns I know

Soon we are in unknown places

Lots of people, lots of faces

Then there is nothing, just some dirt

And my seatbelt begins to hurt

Turn the wheel a couple of times

Into my eyes the sun does shine

Driving, driving, drive some more

My personal Idaho tour

Soon we are in Pocatello

Meet ‘Trina’s roommates, say hello

Having dinner at Arby’s, Yes!

Now the car has become a mess

It’s starting to get dark at night

The road has very little light

Finally reaching back again

Didn’t get home ‘til twelve AM

Driver's License

Yay for driving! Today, I was finally able to get my driver's license, so now I can drive by myself, and not have to have an adult with me. I know that I have been slow, but it took me awhile to get the driving hours. Even so, I enjoy driving, and I am looking forward to the independence it will give me. =)

Braces Off!

I got my braces off today! I still have a retainer, but I am quite happy to have the braces off! My teeth look so nice, it doesn't even feel like they're my own teeth. =)
