100 things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BC chapter.

As Thanksgiving approaches, the big question of “what are we thankful for?” becomes more and more emphasized. Although, a week before the break with 4 midterms and a low GPA standing between me and a delicious turkey meal, I’ve found it extremely hard to find an answer to that question. However, after brainstorming 100 things, I’ve realized that I am very thankful for many things apart from the usual friends and family. So, if you’re having an especially hard study day and can’t seem to find anything to be thankful for, here are 100 things just for you…
