Thanksgiving Dinner, as told by The Office

We all know how stressful Thanksgiving can be with crazy relatives, having to clean the house, and pretending you actually like your evil grandma. So here is Thanksgiving dinner as told by The Office.

1. When your parents announce that you are going to your relatives house for dinner


2. When you roll up to their house, trying to act like everything is fine


3. When you step through the door and the first thing they ask you about is school/grades/your major

4. And then that annoying relative of yours continues to ask you stupid questions


5. And apparently, your responses aren't good enough for them

6. When you get compared to your high-achieving, super successful cousin

7. When you're starving and have to wait in line behind every single cousin just to get a scoop of mashed potatoes


8. When the table gets into a heated debate over the recent political events


9. And then your sibling decides it's the perfect time to share your most embarrassing story with everyone


10. And while you're the center of attention, somebody decides to ask you why you're always single


11. When that one relative you barely know tries to shove their aggressive opinions down your throat


12. And then your family gets mad that you're in a bad mood


13. When you're uncle asks you why you didn't eat the dried out, overcooked turkey


14. And at this point, few things can put you in a better mood


15. And while you love your family, you know you would rather be doing other things

Thanksgiving can be hard! Hopefully these pictures will brighten the day for you!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. 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.
