Why don't people give thanks to Thanksgiving?

How Underappreciated Thanksgiving Is

The day after Halloween everyone automatically jumps to Christmas. Not that I am against Christmas, but what about Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, and people do not appreciate it as much as they should.

It makes me so mad when people skip over Thanksgiving. It’s a holiday where you get to spend it with your family and eat so much food! Who doesn’t look forward to that? It’s also a time to give thanks for everything, and everyone in your life.

Giving thanks is so important, not just on Thanksgiving, but all the time. The holidays aren’t a time to be receiving gifts or getting new things, it’s about appreciating what you have, and to spend time with your loved ones.

Being away at college has made me appreciate the holidays so much more. Having the opportunity to come home and see your family is just the best feeling ever. I mean, Thanksgiving should also just be everyone’s holiday, because food.

Thinking about all the food I am about to eat with my family is making me so happy. I think people just get too caught up in having to make all the food, and prepare for a huge meal. But, in the end, it is all worth it. You get to talk about old times, make jokes, and eat amazing food.

I love Thanksgiving so much, and I think people should love it just as much as I do. It is a great holiday full of yummy food and all the people that are important to your life.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
