6 ​Things That Probably Happened At Your Thanksgiving Dinner
Glamour

This Thanksgiving there was probably tons of eating, family gathering, and most importantly bonding going on. Fun activities are a must when you are all together, and these are just a few of the things that could have possibly occurred. If you are anything like my family then you probably did these things during your Thanksgiving getaway.

Jams that were played

All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey

Can we focus on one holiday at a time…? I still have finals to get through.

Juju On That Beat by Zay hilfigerrr, Zayion McCall

“Grandma, let me teach you this fun, new dance!”

Wobble by V.I.C.

Which soon turned into “gobble baby, gobble baby, gobble baby, gobble.”

Heathens by Twenty-One Pilots

When your mom discovers Twenty-One Pilots and asks you to keep the song on replay.

The Mannequin Challenge

…Be honest, “Black Beatles” was played one too many times in an attempt to get everyone to participate.

A Grinch Monologue

Because I definitely could not find a single thing to wear, even though I got extremely dressed up just to stand in my kitchen.

The Interrogation

The constant game of 20 Questions trying to find out why I am still single and when I might find a boyfriend.

The Complaining

Before, during and after. Wondering when dinner would be ready because I simply refused to eat all day in order to get seconds, who am I kidding, I mean fourths.

Half-way through my meal I ask myself why I didn’t wear my stretchy pants because I have no clue where all my food is going to fit.

And finally when dinner is over and I am asked to help with dishes, but I can’t because I have entered a food coma and can’t move.

The Election

As we exit the election season, the outcome was really something to talk about. The election was probably the most common topic brought up at the table this Thanksgiving.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
