It is that time of year again. We all get a little break from school and get to head home for an awesome home-cooked meal. When you go home for Thanksgiving this year, don't forget to remember what the holiday is about.

Don't forget to actually spend time with your family. Try not to pick up your phone while you are at the dinner table and just enjoy the company around you. Your family is actually interested in hearing all about college and reliving old memories. Meet up with your old friends if you can. Just because you don't see each other as much it doesn't mean they don't care about you.

While celebrating the holiday make sure to remember how lucky you really are. Take a minute and think about all the things you are blessed with. Be thankful for your family and your friends. Be thankful to have a home and have an opportunity to go college. Be thankful you have food to eat. Be thankful because it's all the little things that really count.
