Midterms are over, group projects are coming to an end and finals are becoming more and more daunting every day. Your sanity is diminishing, your wallet's down to singles, and you're currently living off of five hours of sleep and one too many bowls of Top Ramen. Lucky for you, Thanksgiving break is right around the corner and is exactly what you need in order to come back to finals week feeling rejuvenated and somewhat mentally stable. Here's a list of reasons Thanksgiving break is exactly what you needed this time of the semester:

1. SLEEP, sleep, and sleep.

Whether it's sleeping on the flight home, taking a nap as soon as you enter your front door, or sleeping in until noon every day, you'll finally be able to catch some z's.

Now you'll no longer look like this when you go back to class.

2. Probably the most obvious reason of all, FOOD, and good food too.

There's really nothing better than stuffing your face with ham, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and turkey. The food coma is so worth it.

3. Attention.

You've probably been denied love the last few weeks from your friends who are all too consumed in the stresses of their lives. Thanksgiving break allows you to go home and be the center of attention. Your siblings love you all of a sudden and your parents are all the more willing to spoil the crap out of you for the next four days.

4. You have zero responsibilities.

No need to worry about what you'll make for dinner tonight or making sure you get to work on time. When you're home, the fridge is always full (thanks mom) and you can sit on the couch watching Netflix all day if you please.

5. Not having to spend a dime.

You don't need to buy groceries, save quarters for the laundromat, or buy yourself dinner. Mom and Dad will pick up the check and you can wash as many loads as you want for free!

6. Spending all weekend in your PJs and no makeup. .

No longer being on a college campus, you can let your hair go wild and live in your sweats because you definitely aren't going to run into some cute college boy at home.

7. Lastly, you can be totally and completely weird.

Your family won't judge you for singing in the shower, dancing around the house, or stuffing your face all day. They will always be the people who will gladly join you in.
