10 Foods You Can’t Leave Out Of Thanksgiving
Country Living

Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks, celebrate, and EAT. This is a list of foods I can’t live without during Thanksgiving.


1. Pumpkin Pie

Every thanksgiving I make what seems to be like 4 or 5 of these things. I usually use the canned version which I think is delicious.


2. Cornbread Dressing

I absolutely love this! My grandmother used to make it every Thanksgiving, but now my mom cooks it.


3. Turkey

Whether fried or baked, a turkey is something that can never be missing.


4. Ham

Now I know you’re probably thinking; why would you have a ham at Thanksgiving? Because it is simply delicious!


5. Squash Casserole

My mom makes this every year and sometimes for no reason, but it still can’t be missing at the feast.


6.Green Bean Casserole

Green beans and the onion chips are amazing and I can’t wait to have these again this year.


7. Mashed Potatoes and Gravy

Now I know you are probably thing; can’t you have those whenever you want? Yes, you can but I like to have some for Thanksgiving.


8. Pecan Pie

I love making this for Thanksgiving and it usually is all gone by the time everybody leaves. I typically use a family recipe and some pecans that my dad gets from his work for the holidays.


9. Sweet Potato Casserole

Sweet Potatoes with marshmallows, pecans, and brown sugar on top are amazing!


10. Cranberry Sauce

Some people aren't big fans of cranberry sauce but I enjoy having some during the holidays.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
