happy feelings and a great insight for me

so yesterday (Nov. 30) my apartment building had a hunger banquet. Our RA talked to us about people around the world who were dying of hunger and other things, but before she started everything she asked us who had fasted for 24 hours before the banquet and like usual people didn't fast. After our little presentation we got to eat pizza, salad and brownies and while we were eating me and kristen thought it would be a cool experience to fast for 24 hours. WOW can i tell you how hard it is right now?! we planned to fast from midnight to midnight, but i only got to 9 p.m. today (Dec 1) i got to 21 hours with out food and i could not handle it! The experience really made me think about how fortunate i am, even though i say i am poor and have nothing to eat i have always been able to find something to fill me up. I have seen how fortunate i really am and i am amazed at how well off i am! i am so grateful for everything i have. i can not even imagine what it would be like to go for days without food. But speaking of food! i came into my room today and stared to clean off my desk and saw that i had a slip of paper telling me that i had a package so i go over to merrill hall kind of confused but happy because i was getting something in the mail. Well not just something but a PACKAGE! i show the people at the front desk my slip and they hand me a box that was kind of heavy and i read the name of who sent it to me and it was Nan Stoddard! my roommates mom! hahaha i was kinda really confused about this so i went home and showed Dani what i got and she excitedly said for me to open it because she got a package in the same box as mind earlier today and so i got a knife and opened it! i was very surprised when i saw that the package had Lindor Truffles (my most favorite chocolates in the world!), peach rings, a chocolate orange, moon sand, lotion, body wash, and a little christmas tree ornament maker thing! i was sooo excited!!! i felt soo loved hahaha. it was so fun to get a package in the mail! THANKS NAN!! LOVE YA! :D
