Your Thanksgiving, In "Friends" GIFs

Let the awkward questions from family members begin.

Your Thanksgiving, In "Friends" GIFs

Around Thanksgiving, you go back home and see all of your family you really haven't seen since the summer. I mean sure, you come back to your hometown every now and then, for just a weekend, but this time you're with your whole family. Your brothers, sisters, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, dogs, everyone will be there. Spending time with family can be sometimes relaxing or awkward, considering you never see them, so here to explain this mixture of emotions is the cast of hit TV show "Friends."

You'll get asked if you're currently dating anyone. You tell them you're just too busy with school and work to focus on that sort of thing. But really....

Or my personal favorite, "what are your plans after graduation?"

Accidentally getting drunk in front of your family for the first time, because apparently your family believes in endless Margaritas and then seeing your family drunk for the first time.

You get to get an earful from that one family member that has a political opinion on just about anything and you have to sit there, nod your head, and smile. Or just nod off.

Fighting with your siblings like you did when you were seven, like nothing has changed

The texts you send your friends because you're 100 percent done with your family

The day of thanksgiving is immense torture the moment you wake up. The smell the cooking in the kitchen is intoxicating and the torture doesn't stop up until you get to eat dinner (which you've been starving yourself all day for) and everything looks SO GOOD.

Then getting in trouble for sneaking slices of food before it's dinner time.

Getting so cranky because you're so hungry you say things you don't mean

But when it's time to eat....

...and some one asks to pass the plate of turkey.

You know you've reached your limit but you find yourself still putting food in your mouth.

Then the intense food coma you slip into and the pre-black Friday nap you take before you scrimmage for the best black Friday deals.

But being surrounded by people who love you the most is one of the greatest feelings in the world. Take advantage of this time with family, time with these people are so rare.

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.
