Reminiscing On That "Un" forgetable Weekend

Your First Thanksgiving Break Back Home From College As Told by Ross

The anticipation of all the questions your family is going to ask you about college.

Your siblings find absolutely anything to rag on you for.

When your parents ask you why you're so tan because it's the end of November.

Seeing your high school nemesis out at a party.

When high school acquaintances tell you how much they LOVE school.

You see your high school ex when you look like you just crawled out of the sewer.

And of course they see you and try to make small talk.

Your relatives ask you what your major is.

Then they tell you your cousin is Pre-Med.

You realize all of your moms' homemade dessert was eaten before you even had a bite.

For the 20th time (give or take), a relative asks you how school is going.

Your elephant family waking you up at 8 a.m. in the morning.

Your attitude for the rest of the long weekend.


Ahh, the infamous Thanksgiving break of freshman year of college. Something we all remember a little too well.

It’s everyone’s favorite time of year. Christmastime is a celebration, but have we forgotten what we are supposed to be celebrating? There is a reason the holiday is called Christmas. Not presentmas. Not Santamas. Not Swiftmas. Christmas.
