Thanksgiving is coming up! Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. Thanksgiving kicks off the holiday season and marks the time of year where it become socially acceptable to listen to Christmas music. So, with that I've compiled a list of 5 things that I am thankful for.

1. I am thankful this semester is almost over

This semester has been extremely tough. It seems as though I could do homework until my brain explodes and will still have assignments to study for or to complete. I am ready to go home for Thanksgiving break and finally catch up on work so for once I can go to sleep without feeling guilty about neglecting one assignment for the other. I am ready for a new set of classes next semester and to be learning about new topics.

2. I am thankful thankful this election is over

This election was emotional for most people. It was also disappointing for most people. This being said, we can now facilitate the process of accepting the results and moving forward with our lives. I am thankful this election is over because it has led to several humor memes and gag gifts which have lightened my mood little bit.

3. I am thankful for my family and friends

My family has been going through a lot lately. There have been some extremely stressful and heartbreaking events going on and I am thankful that my family has been able to stay strong and support each other. I am thankful that this year I've made friends that I really appreciate and who really appreciate me as well.

4. I am thankful for Black Friday sales

Being a college student trying to save money means that Black Friday sales are calling my name. I can't wait to see what deals are happening and what I can buy for holiday gifts.

5. I am thankful for Netflix

Without Netflix, I would never her able to justify my procrastination. I am thankful to Netflix for all of my late night binge-watching and addictions.
