Thanksgiving Break As Told By The Office
Msecnd

You've been waiting for Thanksgiving all semester. Finally you get to sleep in your own bed, eat real food, and have a week without stress from school. Surely you can handle all the questions and comments from your family members at Thanksgiving, right?

1. "How's your first semester been so far?"


Yes, I love school. Yes, it is sometimes like prison. It's fine.

2. "I'm sure you're getting all A's in your classes."


And I am sure that Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and Bigfoot will be joining us soon.

3. "You look like you might be gaining the freshman fifteen, be careful about that."


You'd gain weight too you only had access to french fries and coffee.

4. "Have you been able to save money since everything you need is on campus?"

No, Aunt Sally. I'm more poor than I was three months ago. Thanks for the reminder.

5. "Aren't finals coming up? Are you ready?"


I still don't even know what my finals are on so no, I am not ready.

6. "What are your classes like?"


I assure you they're not that interesting.

7. "You don't party, right?"

Nope and I've never had a sip of alcohol either. I swear.

8. "What do you think about the presidential election?"


We're not even discussing this.

9. "You seemed to have changed a lot."


It might just be that I haven't seen you in three months, but okay.

10. "Just a few more days till you go back. Aren't you excited?"


I can't even wait.

As great as this break will be, just remember that not everyone can handle the negatives. So go to your room and turn on The Office, everything will be alright.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
