Not many people know what Thanksgiving Day means and why we should celebrate this public holiday. Thanksgiving Day was founded back in 1620 when Pilgrims and Native Americans came together for a huge harvest feast, and since then we celebrate this day every year along with Christmas and New Year (everyone’s favorite time of the year).

Every year, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November and this year it will be celebrated on November 23.

Since this holiday is all about being grateful for your friends, families and of course food, we should also consider the little things to be thankful for as well. Here are 30 things you can be thankful for on Thanksgiving Day or any other day:

1. Snow

2. The last slice of cake

3. Fall leaves changing colors

4. Your favorite TV show

5. S’mores and campfires

6. Not having to set an alarm for the next day

7. The perfect playlist

8. Your health, even on days you have a cold

9. Pretty stationery

10. Google

11. Having coffee in the morning

12. It’s almost Christmas

13. The smell of Christmas trees

14. Waking up from a nap on time and feeling great

15. Movies you can watch over and over

16. Friendships, new and old

17. Having a great hair day

18. When Starbucks finally writes your name correctly

19. All the wonderful times you have laughed till you cried this year

20. Freedom

21. For your pets and all animals, we encounter

22. Good food, whether you’re making it or eating it

23. A hug after a very long and hard day

24. Fuzzy socks

25. Puppies!

26. Receiving education because not everyone can

27. Finishing a good book

28. Receiving handwritten letters or any nice message

29. Love

30. There is always something to be thankful for

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
