Day 17: that was Sunday.
1. So all I could think about as I was sitting in church on Sunday was how incredibly grateful I am to be able to go to church and be inspired slash receive personal revelation through the spirit by the talks that people give or the lessons that are prepared. And I was thinking about how cool and pretty incredible it was that this one guys' talk could touch me so deeply as it did and could inspire me to act, to change a little bit so that I can try to be better.
2. Visiting teaching. I'm grateful for this! Which is actually kinda exciting cause I have not always been the best vt... And I'm sure that it will continue to be something that I need to work on. But! This year I have tried to be better at doing it. And I know that it is important and of God. I love going and I love being visit taught! It's just the best. And I love when you become good friends with your comp and the girls you teach! It's just one big blessing.
3. Board/card games. They are sooo fun! Especially playing with family and friends. I may or may not sometimes act like a crazy person hen playing uno... It's a problem #maisbon hah. Anyways. They are way fun to play and it's just fun to laugh together and to have some friendly competition from time to time.
Day 18: yesterday!
1. Fun holiday themed parties where you can go hang out with friends and (momentarily) forget that you have life responsibilities. haha. But seriously, so fun. And pretty necessary at this time in the year, when tests, juries, papers, and projects abound. So much fun.
2. Chocolate covered cinnamon bears. So I've had this problem lately... Where I'll just go to the BYU Bookstore and buy a pound of these. And then proceed to down them, usually in one sitting #awk hah. They're just so good. And actually to be fair, I usually share them with a friend or two and then eat them in one sitting ;) hah. But you get the point. And I don't have a picture for this one cause, well, they're all in my belly. #getinmabelly
3. Timer pictures. haha. So this little infatuation started on the mission when you'd want pictures with all the missionaries in them (at district meetings/activities or zone things) and no one extra was around to take them. haha. So you'd have everyone get set up, press the button and then book it to get in. Anyways, these are always so fun. Here's one of the most recent from last night :)

Day 19: today!
1. Short weeks at school. I am so grateful for short weeks at school. Even if they're just Monday off and a four day week. They're the best. And especially when feeling more zombie than human cause you are completely mentally exhausted, it's just nice to have a little break!
2. Christmas music!! Haha. I hope I haven't already used this one in my gratitude list... Though it wouldn't really surprise me if I have. (Currently blasting "All I Want for Christmas is You" at work through my headphones at work.) #Iluhhhit But really. It just makes life so happy. And I feel sorry for the people that only get less than a month of it cause they won't start til after Thanksgiving ;)
3. Hashtags. hah. So this is funny. But legit. And I realize that I use them like a 16 year old teenager. I still blame it on the fact that I was gone when they became a thing so I missed the initial wave and then got home a year after they became cool and started using them... #maB #cantstopwontstop hah. But seriously. They're the best. I especially like using them when hacking someone's facebook. (You can thank Matthew for that :P)
Well! I am happy! Break is here! The bestttttt.
L'évangile est vrai!
Love, Pono
