50 Things I'm Thankful For

I hope all of you in the US had a great Thanksgiving, and I hope that the rest of you had a good Thursday. My Thanksgiving was spent here at MIT, working on a multivariable calculus p-set, sleeping, hanging out with friends, and engorging myself on delicious food.

In honor of the spirit of Thanksgiving, here's a list of 50 things I'm thankful for right now. Clearly it is not a comprehensive list, but I hope that it can begin to make up for all of the complaining I do on this blog.
