"You can't have Thanksgiving without turkey. That's like the Fourth of July without apple pie or Friday with no two pizzas." ~Joey

After a week jam packed with papers and tests, you've finally handed in your last assignment and can finally leave for break! You've been hardly waiting for this moment for weeks now!

It's finally time for you to make your grand entrance as you arrive back at your childhood home.

Which also means you get to see your dog for the first time in what feels like forever!

Once you've settled in and spent a long time telling your dog how much you miss and love him or her, it's time to reunite with all your high school friends you haven't seen since you all left for school in august. The reunion usually goes something like this:

Finally it's Turkey Day! All you can think about is all the delicious food you will soon be able to eat!


The festivities of the day begin bright and early as you wake up to watch Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Which ultimately results in you being dragged into the kitchen to help out finishing tonight's dinner. But you don't mind because you always get the 'fun' jobs.

Once the turkey is in the oven and everything else is prepared you sit down with the rest of your family to watch the Thanksgiving Day Game.

Of course your extended family who you haven't seen in months begins to bombard you with questions as you halftime rolls around. How's college? What's your major? What are your plans for the future? Any boyfriend or girlfriend yet? And so on... But you can't just ignore them, so you continue to answer the same questions over and over and over again.

Finally the turkey is done and it's time for dinner! You jump up and run straight for the huge table of food set up in the kitchen. Excited to pile your plate full of all your favorite thanksgiving food!

After you've eaten so much food you never want to move again you find a nice place to relax for a little, maybe even take a quick nap.

Even though your exhausted from the day, you're still pumped to go Black Friday shopping! And the 2am diner run that is always needed to fuel you up for a night of shopping.


Once you get back home, at some ungodly hour in the morning, you're looking forward to going to sleep and getting to spend the next few days at home with your friends and family before you have to go back to school.


HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
