9 Reasons To Look Forward To Thanksgiving Break
Snopes

College is a wild ride. There's always something going on and people to hang out with, and you can rarely pass up on the opportunity for a good night-out. But there's something so exciting about the idea of going home, curling up in your own bed, and sleeping for 9 days straight. Everyone needs a break from the college lifestyle eventually. So here are 9 things everyone should look forward to when going home this week as told by Step Brothers:

1. Netflix, lots of Netflix.

Not a whole lot of time to binge watch 5 hours of Grey's Anatomy when you have 2 papers, a project, math homework, and readings due.

2. Seeing your siblings.

And catching up on everything that's been going on in their lives for the past 3 months!

3. No school-related stress.

No homework, no papers, no studying, just 9 days of freedom from the academic chains.

4. Much needed family time.


Being away from your family really makes you appreciate everything that they've done for you.

5. Reuniting with your hometown friends.

And probably causing some trouble, because why not?

6. Home-cooked meals.

As much as I love Chick-fil-A and Cookout, I can't wait to eat some home-cooked veggies with my dinner (never thought I would say that...)

7. Care packages.

You're on your last roll of toilet paper and have eaten peanut butter for three days straight. It's time for some holiday care package gifts.

8. Black Friday shopping.


The adrenaline rush of Black Friday shopping with the rewards of so many new clothes and things for like 80% off!!!

9. And of course, the Thanksgiving food!

Boy, am I excited for some sweet potato casserole.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.
