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.

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.
