Stages Of Thanksgiving Break As Told By Friends

Thanksgiving break is always one of the better breaks during the school year. Although finals are rapidly approaching for students in college, it's always nice to go home and relax for a week. Here are things that college students experience during Thanksgiving break as told by Friends.

1. The feeling of finally being done with school for a week

Finally, no more homework or tests. You can finally relax and enjoy that movie you've been meaning to watch but just couldn't find the time during school.

2. Food that isn't Ramen Noodles


Ramen is the quick and easy alternative. But, a real meal made by someone other than yourself feels like it's too good to be true. Especially the Thanksgiving meal!

3. When you no longer are in class with that one person


Everyone has that one person in their class that asks way too many questions on something the professor just explained. Thanksgiving break is great for getting a break from that person for a while.

4. When your family asks you to do something

Yes mom, I would pick up my siblings from school any other day, but I'm on break!

5. Finally getting to see all of your friends


College friends are amazing because they are always around when you're at school. But when your home, your old high school friends bring back the bittersweet memories that you'd give anything to relive just one more time.

6. Looking at pictures with family and realizing all of the weight that you gained while you weren't home

All of us who are passed our freshman year know that the freshman 15 is a real thing. Now on to the sophomore 20!

7. Feeling smarter than your cousins at Thanksgiving dinner because you're in college and they aren't

How's still being in high school? College is great, thanks for asking.

8. Having to share a room with siblings when family starts arriving

When all you want to do is be comfy in your own bed but you find out that you have to share to make room for all the family.

9. Realizing that finals are 2 weeks after you return from break

Maybe I should have been studying during break?

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
