Thanksgiving break has finally arrived and college kids around the country are rejoicing. The end of November is what college kids everywhere looked forward to since the beginning of the semester. After weeks on end of late nights out, studying for hours, piles of homework, and abnormal meals, we finally get to go home and be a functioning person once again. Here are some of the best things about Thanksgiving break:

1. Bed

My bed at home is like sleeping on a cloud. I have dreams about dreaming on my own bed. College beds are small, creaky, and uncomfortable, so going home to my own room and my beautiful bed is what I look forward too. I cannot wait to snuggle up and all my pillows and sleep in as late as I want.

2. Family

My family is some of my favorite people. Getting together on holidays is always a very interesting time, but some of my favorite memories come from all the craziness. There is only so many phone calls that can hold kids over, so seeing family is always a good time.

3. Home friends

Don't get me wrong, I love my college friends more than a normal person probably should, but seeing my home friends gives me so much happiness. I've grown up with them, spent so much time with them, and have so many memories with them. Home friends just understand you, and you always pick up where you left off.

4. FOOD

Thanksgiving food is glorious. Turkey, stuffing, desserts, everything put in front of me is delicious. Not only is Thanksgiving day food amazing, but the whole week of home cooked meals is a blessing. We go months of throwing together anything we can find that makes something that resembles a meal to come home to warm, delicious, well thought out dinners. It's a nice change of pace.
