Thanksgiving As Told By Gossip Girl

Thanksgiving is almost here! To honor the holiday where stuffing your face is completely natural and universally accepted, I've traced the phases of Thanksgiving "feels" as told by Gossip Girl.

1. November 1st

The first of many nights spent dreaming about the food at Thanksgiving dinner and never wanting the dream to end.


2. The one week countdown

The day is almost here and you're double checking the menu to make sure your favorite dishes made the cut.


3. The morning of Thanksgiving

You're feeling great and ready to gain some weight.



4. Seeing all your relatives

You missed your family and they missed you; everyone is excited and lots of hugs are exchanged.


5. The questions begin

When you receive the first question about your future/ relationship status/ college.


6. The talkative relative sits next to you

That one relative that makes a point to talk to every family member for at least a half hour.


7. The 30 min dinner call

The anticipation is at an all time high as there is only 30 minutes until dinner is ready.


8. Dinner is ready

A.k.a you begin stuffing your face with food.


9. The food baby emerges

You prepared for this very moment and know that it is time to loosen your pants or loose a piece of clothing.


10. You regret how much food you ate

Your stomach hurts and you're seriously regretting that last plate of food.


11. Dessert comes

All regrets are gone and you're ready for more food #noregrats.


12. The food coma

You can no longer move and must live in your bed.


13. Family drama

Someone had a little too much pie and decided to talk about politics.


14. Goodbyes

It's time to leave. Thanksgiving is over and you're crying because you've missed your family and homemade meals.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
