Thanksgiving is here! There are so many things to be thankful for this year. But as a college student there are a few things across the board that we all should be thankful for this week.

1. Thanksgiving Break

Finally a break! I think every college student can agree that this semester has beaten us down. We are ready for a break and some time to relax, even if it is only a few days.

2. Family

Our supportive family, who may care a little to much at times, but always have our best interest at heart. And a few bucks to spare when you are really running low.

3. The semester is almost over.

The semester ending means finals, but it also means Christmas! And a month long break with no assignments hanging over your head!

4. A home cooked meal.

If you live on campus you probably miss home cooked food more than you miss anything else from home. You've most likely been having weird dreams of skiing down slopes of mashed potatoes and diving into a pool of stuffing for a month.

5. Alcohol

Alcohol to get you through the inevitable "Are you dating anyone?" and"What are you going to do after graduation?" questions that are going to come from every single one of your relatives. Grab a glass of wine, as much as you love your family, you're going to need it this holiday.

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.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
