Thankful (for a classmate)

I am thankful for Lydia, Nat and Jillian.  The first time there was group work in class the four people behind me were a group and I had to be put in a group with random people.  No one in this group had read the chapter except for me so I was pretty much the only one contributing.  This happened for the first two or so group works.  Then around the third group work I joined a group with the three people listed above and they were very nice and had good ideas about the group work.  For all of the group work since then I have joined them for group work and I am very thankful that they were nice and welcoming and let me stay.

I Celebrate Myself

I had some trouble thinking of what to write for this blog so I looked to see what other people were writing and saw that lots of them started with "I didn't know what to write this week" so I decided just to give it my best.  The phrase I celebrate myself relates to transcendentalism  because one of the focuses of transcendentalism is to believe in the minority and I am only one person not anybody else.  I should celebrate my decisions and what I have done instead of worrying how it affects others.
