I went to play basketball for a few hours with a couple of friends, we had lots of fun and played games against other people. In the process, we were able to work on our skills. I'm grateful for today because I played well and was able to notice that my training paid off.

After doing some homework I went for a walk and noticed how calming the rain outside was. Today I'm grateful for nature and I'm thankful God gave us such beautiful scenery.

Had to stay at school late for a bit so I just stuck around to do homework. Thankfully, I wasn't alone and a few of my friends were also getting picked up late.

After driving home from basketball practice I noticed that the moon looked cool. I'm grateful for the moonlight and its beauty, some people don't appreciate it because they see it every day but it was a full moon today and it was glowing very bright.

Today we had the walkathon the rain made the mood calm, after running the first half I was pretty exhausted but when I came back to the school I ate about 5 hotdogs. Today I'm grateful for food because it keeps me energized and ready for the day to come.

Today was Thanksgiving, and for dinner, I went out and met some distant relatives. Wish I had a better photo but I was only able to take a picture of the appetizer which tasted amazing by the way it was some kind of Chinese bao taco. Anyway, I'm grateful for the time I spent with my family and it was really pleasant meeting some family members that came from Alberta.
