Waiting for Thanksgiving Break as Told by Gilmore Girls
http://returntostarshollow.blogspot.com/

Can you believe it’s already November? I feel like it was just fall break and now Thanksgiving break is almost here, which means the semester is almost over. The stress of midterms, passing classes and an insane workload is almost gone. After Thanksgiving break, we just have to make it through finals and then it’s holiday season! It came so quickly and as much as I love college I cannot wait to be home for break with my family and friends. The Gilmore Girls have the perfect reactions to just about everything, nothing can stress them out when they have coffee by their sides. Let’s see how they feel about Thanksgiving break coming up!

1. It’s November already?

Believe me I am just as shocked as Emily Gilmore appears to be. I feel like and I bet many of you do too that I was just moving in for my second year of college and now Thanksgiving break is almost here! Where did the time go?

2. Will the workload ever end?

I think Paris’s expression pretty much sums it up. In the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving break you feel like the work just doesn’t stop coming and it may never stop.

3. The stress

Sometimes, like Sookie, when you’re so stressed out you’re not sure if you are crying or laughing. It may be a little bit of both.

4. Can’t get sick!

According to Richard’s mother, Gilmore’s don’t get sick. So as long as you’re a Gilmore you have nothing to worry about, right? That’s unfortunate for the rest of us, but we can all just hope for the best!

5. Just a few more days’ left

Like Lorelai we may need coffee in an IV with only a few days left until break, professors will be giving us work upon work. Coffee is the only way we stay up and survive the days ahead.

6. Not being able to wait to see family and friends

The happy dance that Lorelai is doing is how we feel when we finally get to see our family and friends again! We will be so happy when we get home!

7. The food

We may not have four Thanksgiving dinners to go to like Rory and Lorelai, but we would be happy to eat four dinners worth of Thanksgiving food. I can’t wait for the turkey, the mashed potatoes and the stuffing, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

8. Yay for the holiday season!

Thanksgiving is just the start to the holiday season, then comes Hanukkah and then Christmas! After break we only have a few weeks and then finals and we get to the month long break and celebrate! I don’t know about you, but I’m excited for the snow just like Luke and Lorelai (aren't they the cutest?).

We just have to get through a few more days until Thanksgiving break and the holiday season, so let’s take a page out of Lorelai’s book to get through it, “Coffee please, and a shot of cynicism.”

Have a great Thanksgiving break!

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?

For the average 20-something, life moves pretty fast. You’ve got classes, friends, relationships, jobs, family, and whatever else we overcommit ourselves with.

Resting b***h face. Defined as a person, usually a girl, who naturally looks mean when her face is expressionless, without meaning to. Many of you suffer from this "condition." You are commonly asked what's wrong, when nothing is. What people don't know is that is just your facial expression. Here are some things they wish you knew.
