Thanksgiving has, and always will be, my absolute favorite holiday. It's the one day every year that my huge family can all come together and really appreciate each other. It's also the one time of year I can really get away with singing the Thanksgiving song from Bob's Burgers (you won't regret looking it up). So from me to you, here's the process of Thanksgiving from a college student.

1.) When you're trying to be festive for Thanksgiving but everyone else is already talking about Christmas

I stick to a real strict No Christmas Until After Thanksgiving rule.

2.) When you're in your last class before break and all you can think about is leaving to see your dogs

Your professor might as well have just cancelled class because nobody is actually paying attention.

3.) When you finally get home and you're reunited with your pets

There is no greater feeling than being greeted by the ones who always love you no matter what <3

4.) When your relatives ask how your "studies" are going

Aha, yeah....

5.) When you see the food being set out

So close, yet so far....

6.) When your mom finally says it's time to eat

The moment you've all been waiting for has finally arrived and everything smells good and there's so much to eat and you can't contain yourself.

7.) When you're still at the kid's table but you love it

Don't lie, you know the kid's end is way better.

8.) When you're prepared for the feast

Who even wears real pants to Thanksgiving?

9.) When your family knows they don't have it all together, but together they know they have it all

We put the "fun" in "dysfunctional" ;)

10.) After you've all polished off five servings and go to lay down on the couch

Food coma!

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!
