counting my blessings

hellooooo! my friends
(can you teach me how to breathe again?)
today i had a pretty good day so i'm going to list all the blessings God has given me. (not that if you're having a bad day you shouldn't count your blessings)
- health. i know a lot of people who always get injured in some way or get really sick, or they're allergic to something, but i think i'm pretty healthy. the worst injury i've gotten was probably this cut that i got, and it wasn't even super huge like splitting my leg in half or anything. i do get kind of sick a lot more now, but not that much. the worst illness i've gotten in the whole 14 years (now 15) of my life is when i got a throat infection and fever in january. it took more than a week to heal, but that was because i didn't go to the doctor. once i did, i healed in 2 days. i'm not allergic to anything at all, either.
- education. i don't get amazing grades, like 4.7 GPAs or anything, but that's mainly because i don't try. i always procrastinate - like finishing a huge project in 8th grade that takes around 6 months to finish, but took one night for me - but i always get great grades (alliteration?!) on projects. that huge project? i got 100% + my teacher told me personally he liked it and wanted to keep it. hm, and today! i got an 100% on a history essay (my worst subject) that was supposed to take a month, and i finished it in around a day or so. other people worked on it for a month or so and got lower grades, and i was the total opposite. ;p i have to say, if i did try though, i think i would get better grades.
- guts. i really like how God gave me "spunk?". most people are afraid to "embarass" themselves in public, but i don't really care most of the time. i usually don't get embarassed by the most embarassing things.. (but i do get embarassed by the least embarassing things). why does spell check say i'm spelling embarassing wrong? (oh never mind, 2 r's) of course, there's a down side to this, but i like to see the good side of it.
and yeah, there's more, but that's just a few of the blessings God has given me:) and i am kinda showing off, haha, but then again, GOD has given me these qualities that i love. through each suffering or curse comes each blessing.
