Thanksgiving break has officially begun (for most of us), which means we have finally reached the final stretch of the semester. Thanksgiving break is a time for us college students to unwind, eat good food again, and pretend like finals aren't right around the corner. Coming home for Thanksgiving is bittersweet for us college students, especially when it comes to attending Thanksgiving dinner. But thankfully for us, Bridesmaids perfectly captured the Thanksgiving dinner experience for college students.
1. When you first wake up on the morning of Thanksgiving
2. When you walk into your aunt's house for Thanksgiving dinner like, 'Yes, I am here, arisen from the dead of college, you're welcome for gracing you with my presence for the first time in 4 months'
3. When your extended family asks where your boyfriend/girlfriend is
4. When your rich aunt chipperly asks how college is going
5. When the pies start getting brought out to the table
