10 Reasons College Students Always Get Excited For Thanksgiving Break

Thanksgiving break—something college kids have been looking forward to since they got to school. You said bye to your best friends with “see you at Thanksgiving,” and now it is finally here. I’m sure you can find many reasons to be excited for Thanksgiving break, but here are my top 10.

1. Be able to shower without a caddy.

Plus no shower shoes either! Freedom!

2. Be able to shower without the fear that the fire alarm is going off.

3. Have the ability to get in your car to drive to dinner without having to be Uber's best customer.

4. Have good food. Bye, bye dining hall.

5. Additionally, have food when you want

You don't have to worry about going to the dining hall to realize that it is closed in order for you to go to an event with food.

6. You don't have to walk up over 100 stairs just to get to your room.

Thanks, Mount Olympus...

7. Waking up to one alarm - not your roommates.

8. Your room will finally only have one function.

It won't be the kitchen, bathroom, homework center, and sleep area all in one anymore.

9. Have a closet where both doors actually open.

Only having one side of the closet open is such a pain, but no more!

10. Take your parents money instead of your work money dwindling away.

To all college kids going home in the next week: have so much fun and cherish the moments home with your family and friends.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
