As the year has come to a close, the new semester is starting, and life after break begins again, I decided to take a look back at all that has happened in my life the past semester. The last semester had its ups and downs...okay mainly downs...but here are 20 things I'm thankful for from the past semester.

1. My roommates.

I love them all, and I'm super thankful to not have any roommate issues this year.

2. My foster brother becoming my legal brother.

He was in foster care for over two years, and today he is my adopted brother.

3. AAA

My car hates me. Enough said.

4. This Is Us

So many tears, but such a good show.

5. My boyfriend.

He's my best friend. He takes care of me. And he keeps me sane.

6. My sunglasses.

I've lost them, sat on them, and lost them again. But somehow they've lasted me an entire semester. (This is a record for me).

7. My job.

Congrats to me, I have a part-time job that I don't actually despise.

8. Starlight Movie Theater.

The seats recline.

9. Passing biology.

Casually moved into the library for a week...miraculously passed bio.

10. A working printer.

My printer literally never worked last year.

11. The closeness of my family.

It might be a little scary how close we all are...but that's okay.

12. My dad's job.

He works at Ulta. I get all the makeup I want for free.

13. Shameless.

So vulgar, but so good.

14. My bf's best friend who got me out of a sticky situation.

Shoutout to you Taylor.

15. Friends I've gotten closer with.

Y'all da bomb.

16. Blackout curtains.

The sun loves to shine right into my room.

17. The girls in my biology lab group.

I literally just laughed all of lab.

18. The dog we had for a week.

It was nice while it lasted, except when she pooped all over the living room.

19. Flowers from my bf.

They're my fav.

20. A new washer and dryer.

Shoutout to our washer for breaking so we could get a whole new set that 297453 people haven't used.

What are you thankful for from last semester?
