5 Questions No College Student Wants To Be Asked On Thanksgiving

Every college student dreams about coming home for Thanksgiving. A whole week of no classes, your own bed, no shower shoes, a delicious, home cooked food. But what does every college student dread about Thanksgiving break? The endless questions from all of your relatives. Your relatives may think you are starting to get your life together, but really, you are nowhere near having your life together. Here are some questions that will make every college student cringe on Thanksgiving:

1. "How are your classes going?"

Well truthfully, they are so much harder than high school, all I do is study, I'm drowning in homework, and even though I'm pretty sure I've done all of my homework there is probably something I'm forgetting. But thanks for asking.

2. "Do you have a boyfriend?"

Of course not. What boy would find this attractive? And do I even have time to entertain a boy? Plus I don't even know how to talk to boys. And if I did have a boyfriend, what would I even do with it?

3. "Did you put on a little weight?'

Why yes. Yes I did. But you try only having fast food restaurants near you, drinking on the weekends, stress eating, and hanging out with your friends by going out to eat. It's hard not to gain a little weight.

4. "What classes are you taking next semester?"

I'm barely getting through my classes this semester, I don't even want to think about next semester.

5. "What do you want to do when you graduate?"

I don't even know what sides I want with my turkey dinner, let alone what I want to do with my life once classes are done. Let's just take this one day at a time, here.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
