Ah, Thanksgiving. The time of year to relax, thank the Pilgrims, and stuff our faces with turkey and dressing. Nothing could be better than a holiday entirely devoted to food -- oh, and thankfulness. Gathering around the table with the family is something that we all look forward to. It's a time to reflect on years past, anticipate the upcoming holidays, and catch up with those we have not seen in a while.

For those of us on break, it is also a time to visit with family members who likely haven't seen us since Labor Day. Along with pleasant conversations about your cousin's sports team or mom's new recipe, the conversation arrives. The conversation. You know the one I'm talking about -- the ultimate grilling session, the moment everyone has been waiting for. The table goes quiet, and you find yourself answering questions that you definitely weren't prepared for. Here are the 10 questions you will be asked this Thanksgiving.

1. How are your grades?

I'm sorry. Can we not ruin this holiday? If I had a 4.0 I would tell you.

2. Have you met any cute guys?

Maybe, maybe not. Don't scare him away!

3. Are you taking care of yourself?

If you mean do I nap to avoid my responsibilities and stress, then yes.

4. How is your roommate?

This topic should have ended in August.

5. Are you excited to be home?

Actually, yeah. Good wi-fi and Mom's fried okra are where it's at.

6. So, Auburn football?

Alright, so our season has been a little iffy, but we're coming back, I swear!!

7. Do you like your professors?

I mean, I'm forced to be in their class three times a week, so not really.

8. Have you gained weight?

No! Ok – fine – maybe eating Sonic twice a day has something to do with it.

9. Do you miss us?

Since you've asked me 20 times already – yes.

10. Any idea of what you want to do when you graduate?

Good joke!
