“Shouldn’t we give thanks first?”

Waiting for Thanksgiving Break as Told by Gilmore Girls
http://returntostarshollow.blogspot.com/

Can you believe it’s already November? I feel like it was just fall break and now Thanksgiving break is almost here, which means the semester is almost over. The stress of midterms, passing classes and an insane workload is almost gone. After Thanksgiving break, we just have to make it through finals and then it’s holiday season! It came so quickly and as much as I love college I cannot wait to be home for break with my family and friends. The Gilmore Girls have the perfect reactions to just about everything, nothing can stress them out when they have coffee by their sides. Let’s see how they feel about Thanksgiving break coming up!

1. It’s November already?

Believe me I am just as shocked as Emily Gilmore appears to be. I feel like and I bet many of you do too that I was just moving in for my second year of college and now Thanksgiving break is almost here! Where did the time go?

2. Will the workload ever end?

I think Paris’s expression pretty much sums it up. In the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving break you feel like the work just doesn’t stop coming and it may never stop.

3. The stress

Sometimes, like Sookie, when you’re so stressed out you’re not sure if you are crying or laughing. It may be a little bit of both.

4. Can’t get sick!

According to Richard’s mother, Gilmore’s don’t get sick. So as long as you’re a Gilmore you have nothing to worry about, right? That’s unfortunate for the rest of us, but we can all just hope for the best!

5. Just a few more days’ left

Like Lorelai we may need coffee in an IV with only a few days left until break, professors will be giving us work upon work. Coffee is the only way we stay up and survive the days ahead.

6. Not being able to wait to see family and friends

The happy dance that Lorelai is doing is how we feel when we finally get to see our family and friends again! We will be so happy when we get home!

7. The food

We may not have four Thanksgiving dinners to go to like Rory and Lorelai, but we would be happy to eat four dinners worth of Thanksgiving food. I can’t wait for the turkey, the mashed potatoes and the stuffing, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

8. Yay for the holiday season!

Thanksgiving is just the start to the holiday season, then comes Hanukkah and then Christmas! After break we only have a few weeks and then finals and we get to the month long break and celebrate! I don’t know about you, but I’m excited for the snow just like Luke and Lorelai (aren't they the cutest?).

We just have to get through a few more days until Thanksgiving break and the holiday season, so let’s take a page out of Lorelai’s book to get through it, “Coffee please, and a shot of cynicism.”

Have a great Thanksgiving break!

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

The library. Club lib. The place every college student goes when they want to try and be a productive member of society. Who better to explain your experience than Parks and Rec?

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
