"Walk away, bitch."

Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute and Jim Halpert are often seen as the faces of "The Office." While we love their hilarious personalities, their stardom takes some of the well-deserved light away from one of the show's most underrated characters, Gabe Lewis.

Though Gabe is literally one of the strangest and least relatable humans on television, he truly can demonstrate what Thanksgiving is like as a college student.

1. When any commercial comes on that interrupts the National Dog Show

2. When your family begins quizzing you about your love life

3. When your mom tells you to go greet your least favorite family member at the door

4. When your favorite cousin walks in the door

5. When the only Black Friday doorbuster you were looking forward to is sold out before Thanksgiving dinner even starts and you realize society no longer cares about Thanksgiving

6. When someone says that the food is ready


7. When someone asks is any job prospects are on the horizon

8. When somebody makes a comment about your 5th plate of food

9. When you're scooping up the last of the Mac N Cheese and someone comes up behind you

10. When you're trying to take your Thanksgiving nap and people keep trying to speak to you

11. When your opposite-political-party family members begin talking politics

12. When you have one specific thing you'd like to talk about and it doesn't come up in conversation

13. When people begin talking about leaving but nobody actually moves toward the door

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.
