What Every College Student Is Thankful For During Thanksgiving Break
Special Day

With midterms, papers, and presentations, there is always light at the end of the tunnel--Thanksgiving break. Thanksgiving break comes at a time when we all need it most. Just when every college kid can no longer deny the fact that they miss their own bed, family, and especially their dog. Thanksgiving break is the best because its a time to recharge your battery and stock up on things you need to survive the rest of the school year until your new best friend comes along- Winter Break.

1. Seeing Your Family

Their awesome and you've got to admit, you've missed them a whole lot.

2. Your Own Bed

You never thought you loved your bed so much until now, looking back on all those nights on sleeping on a foam mattress bad from Bed Bath and Beyond makes you appreciate your bed 100X more.

3. Homemade Thanksgiving Dinner

Actually any homemade food for that matter. During this time of year, you're probably sick of the cafeteria food and miss your parents cooking.

4. Seeing Your Dog After 3 Months

I don't know who would be more excited. Your dog's probably more thankful they got their best buddy back for the weekend.

5. Your Couch

No homework? no problem! You have 3 seasons of Game of Thrones to catch up on and they are no going to watch themselves. Hey, you can be a couch potato this Thanksgiving Break! You deserve it!

6. Reuniting With All of Your High School Pals

You all have different and exciting stories to tell now that you all go to different schools. Meeting up over Thanksgiving Break is nice because it allows you all to catch up and it feels like old times.

7. Pie

Yum, Pie. This is the one time a year you can eat pie for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and there are no questions asked.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
