We care about our readers and this Thanksgiving, we want YOU to think about all the wonderful people and circumstances in your life that you care about. Here’s what we are grateful to have in our lives:
Casey Nakamura, Senior
“I’m thankful for cheese. Because cheese is life. And course my amazing family and friends. In that order of course.”
McKale Pennell, Freshman
“I’m thankful for the opportunity to be able to further my education. Few people realize the importance of knowledge, and I’m glad that I’m able to study at a University and pursue my interests. Not to mention, UH is so diverse; it’s amazing to be surrounded by so many different cultures. I’m thankful for the opportunity to study and grow in such a rich environment.”
Rachel Townsend, Senior
“I’m thankful to be surrounded by encouragement and support by my friends and family. As those close to me know, I am my own worst critic and often hold myself back with self-doubt. Without the love of the people who surround me, I know I wouldn’t have had the courage to go for the amazing opportunities that have been presented to me. I wouldn’t be where I am today without the positive energy I’ve received, and I am thankful everyday.”
Abbygail Sadoy, Senior
“I am thankful for my friends and family because without whom I would not be the person I am today. I am also thankful to be living and working in my beautiful homestate. I’m able to learn and experience new things with people from different cultures. Lastly, I am thankful for cookies and cream pie, which in itself is self-explanatory.”
Aysia Ferrer, Junior
“I am thankful for my family, especially my mom because she raised my siblings and I on her own and sacrificed a lot. My education, without it I wouldn’t be expanding my knowledge and so much new things. Technology, because I wouldn’t be able to contact my sister and dad who live in Vegas, and I wouldn’t be able to make fun Youtube Videos. And, BBG, without them my college experience wouldn’t be as exciting as it is now.”
Sammi Baum, Senior
“I am thankful for the people who have been with me through my worst days and stuck by my side – you all know who you are. I am also thankful for the vanities I take for granted that many are not fortunate enough to have. Lastly, I am thankful for Hugh Jackman. Because Hugh.”
Hana Ah You, Senior
“I’m thankful for coffee, cheese, G-Eazy and pickles. I’m thankful for my friends and family who have my back. I’m thankful for the late nights and my girls who are always down for a good time. And I’m thankful for the ladies of Her Campus Hawaii putting in the hard work!”
