Why I Love Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a time of the year where you are suppose to give thanks. That's why I love Thanksgiving. I feel like people don't stop and just think about what all they have to be thankful for. Instead we, as humans focus on everything that's wrong with our lives instead of everything that's good. Thanksgiving is a day for us to just stop and give thanks.

1. FRIENDS AND FAMILY
Family is something I enjoy during Thanksgiving. I love getting together with my friends and family. It's also one of the many things I'm thankful for.

2. FOOD
Who doesn't love Thanksgiving food? Turkey, Mac&Cheese, Potato Salad. I LOVE food anytime of the year, but Thanksgiving is a time my family goes all out and I'm thankful for food.

3. Drama
This one is a funny thing to choose but everyone has a little bit of family drama during Thanksgiving. That's what give the holidays a little spice. LOL

4. Giving Thanks
This is my favorite thing about Thanksgiving. You give thanks for what you have.

I know that with life being so hectic sometimes it's hard to just look at what you have to be thankful for. It's easier to think about everything that's going wrong. My challenge for you is to find something to be thankful for this holiday season.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
