5 Reasons Why Every College Student Looks Forward To Thanksgiving.
vectips

After a long month of having exam after exam and pulling all nighters, every college student is ready to go home. Some college students actually haven't even been home since they were dropped off on move in day. College students are tired of having responsibilities and having to get up early for classes. All they want to do is sleep in late and have nothing to worry about. Here are 5 reasons why every college student looks forward to Thanksgiving Break:

1. Seeing their Family.

Many students have not seen their families since they moved to college. The only time they have been able to talk to their families is through FaceTime, text messages or phone calls.

2. Getting free food.

Every student becomes basically broke through out the year because all they spend their money on food, which may come to a surprise to some people. College students get tired of eating fast food all of the time and can't wait to be able to sit down and have a family meal.

3. Black Friday shopping.

Every college student wants to go shopping, but on a tight budget is hard. Black Friday gives them the opportunity to find everything they want on sale so that they do not go completely broke.

4. Sleeping in.

Most college students have early classes because they think they won't be that bad, but they soon learn that they, in fact , are. Getting up early is no fun, especially when you have to stay up late studying for exams.

5. Reuniting with their pets.

There are a few college students that are not obsessed with their pets but the ones that are can not wait to see them on Thanksgiving. Pets are so cute and are your friends for life and honestly everything they do is adorable. Especially when they run to meet you at the door when you arrive.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
