Thanksgiving is almost upon us, my friends. Get out your stretchy pants and leave your belt at home because you know it'll only feel too tight after eating way too much food (but you won't be having any regrets at all and for sure will do it again next year). Paired with the turkey are some of the best dishes that your family members know how to make, and God bless them for it. But of course, not all side dishes were created equally. Some of them reign supreme among the other side dishes, while others sit and stay cold at the table cause THEY'RE DISGUSTING. (In the words of Beyoncé: I ain't sorry). So, which dish is ranked where on the Thanksgiving Food Chain? Well, here is the rank of the best 5 and worst 5 side dishes at the Thanksgiving table.


Worst Dish #5: Beets

Honestly, I can't even stand the smell of beets; keep them away from the Thanksgiving table, they don't belong here.


Best Dish #5: Corn Pudding

Corn pudding seriously makes me feel #blessed. It can be sweet, it can be more salty, it can be AMAZING. Bless you, corn pudding.


Worst Dish #4: Baked Carrots

Carrots should not be soft and mushy. I'm going to repeat that for the people in the back, CARROTS. SHOULD. NOT. BE. SOFT. AND. MUSHY.


Best Dish #4: Macaroni and Cheese

Delicious, cheesy goodness, YES LORD I AM THANKFUL FOR MACARONI AND CHEESE.


Worst Dish #3: Peas

I know maybe like 5 people total who actually enjoy eating peas - so why do they keep showing up at Thanksgiving? Go away, peas, no one even invited you here.


Best Dish #3: Apple Pie

All while I'm sitting there eating my turkey, I'm dreaming about dessert. More specifically, I'm dreaming about some apple pie in my belly.


Worst Dish #2: Pureed Squash

Get out of here with this stuff showing up looking like a pudding imposter - or more like looking up something the dog threw up. Boy BYE.


Best Dish #2: Rolls

Homemade, store bought, french, sourdough, white, wheat, with sesame seeds, without sesame seeds, croissants, baguettes - I don't care what kind of bread it is, I just want it and I want it now.


Worst Dish #1: Brussel Sprouts

These little things don't even look good, literally why do people consume there? And why do they think they should be present on the table at Thanksgiving?


Best Dish #1: Stuffing (The artist formerly known as Dressing)

It smells delicious, it looks delicious, it IS delicious. Stuffing is seriously a blessing to every Thanksgiving table it is on.


Happy Thanksgiving everyone, I hope even if you don't enjoy all the dishes on the table, you enjoy the company sitting around it!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
