I'm not sure about everyone else, but I'm counting down the hours until my Tuesday night, when I can finally head home for Thanksgiving break. There are so many obviously wonderful things about Thanksgiving break that I've decided to compile the top ten things every college student should be thankful for this week...

1. Seeing your family.

There is nothing I'm looking forward to more this week than getting to see my parents and my siblings. They're the most annoying wonderful people in my life, and offer a nice change of pace when it comes to reasons I want to pull my hair out.

2. No class for a week.

This one is so beautifully obvious, and doesn't really need a caption.

3. REAL. FOOD.

Einstein Bagels, I'm over you, and so is everyone else on campus.

4. Getting the squad back together.

Did someone say girls' night?

5. Getting to ignore your email for a week.

Or pretty much anything involving responsibility.

6. Being able to sleep as much as you want.

Oh, it's only 11:37 a.m.? Back to bed.

7. Binge watching as much as your heart desires.

What do you mean there are no more episodes of "Scandal" to watch?

8. Black Friday.

I accept my shopping addiction, and am more than willing to torture myself for the ability to save twenty dollars at Sephora (just don't be that guy that goes at 8 p.m. on Thursday).

9. Laundry.

I'm sure I'm not the only one bringing three bags of laundry home, saving myself the pain of the university's infamous cotton-eating dryers.

10. Christmas is just around the corner.

At least we know that once we are forced back here in a few days, it's only two weeks until our blissful month off for winter break. I can taste the tinsel.

Whatever it is you are thankful for this break, embrace it as much as possible because finals. are. coming...
