Thanksgiving break starts soon! We will be going home for almost a week, and for a lot of us, this will be the first time we've been home since August. We will be able to eat a home-cooked meal, spend time with our families, and catch up on well-earned sleep. With this being the first time for many of us to be surrounded by family and friends, there are bound to be a lot of questions we will encounter. All of these are well-meaning questions, but we might cry anyway. Here are 7 questions we will have to answer over Thanksgiving break!
1. Do you go to a lot of parties?
If binge-watching Netflix is partying, then yes. Very much so.
2. What are you going to do with your major?
I just spent the past three months burying that question in the deep depths of my mind. I'm gonna pretend you didn't ask that, and go get some mashed potatoes so that I don't need to continue this conversation. Cool? Cool.
3. Do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend?
No, but thank you for reminding me how alone I am, Grandpa.
4. Have you been exercising?
Food is so good, Aunt Jill! So good.
5. How are your grades?
Talking about my grades on Thanksgiving break is like taking the last piece of pie at Thanksgiving dinner. You just don't do it.
6. Do you have a job yet?
Did you ask this question so you could give me money, Barbara? Because if not, I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
7. What classes are you taking?
See the answer to question 5! Unacceptable, loving family members. Why don't you tell me about how your job is going? You don't want to? You see the problem here, right?
