Going home for Thanksgiving break is one of the most relieving, yet awkward breaks of the year. It's not quite winter break — there are still finals to take, unfortunately–but it's nowhere near the beginning of the semester. You see some family, but there isn't enough time to truly visit with all of your family. Also, in case you forgot, there's football on television and a TON of home cooked food. A ton. All that to say, here is Thanksgiving break as told by "Saturday Night Live."

When you're only anywhere from a week to a month away from Thanksgiving break


The moment you first find out about family drama that happened while you were away

Your siblings when your parents enforce a curfew on you during break



When your sibling brings home a significant other and the PDA is off the charts


When you see the weirdly colored/funky smelling dish on the table

When a family member purposefully brings up the election because there's outspoken supporters of Hillary and Trump in the family



When the political arguments ensue because everybody has to have the last word

When anyone asks you how the semester is going

When you wake up on the morning of Thanksgiving Day and realize that it's Thanksgiving Day

When you and your siblings start arguing five minutes after you walk through the door

When your older relatives try and compliment your clothes/shoes/accessories

Going in on your plate like

When you go up to get a slice of your favorite pie and there's none left

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all. Remember to give thanks.

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.

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.
