Coming Home for Thanksgiving as Told by Friends

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BU chapter.

There is no better way to describe coming home for Thanksgiving then by using gifs from the fan favorite TV show, Friends. Chances are this is what’s happening…

1.  Getting home and catching up on all the sleep you missed for 3 months

You get home, climb into your OWN bed, and may or may not sleep for close to 24 consecutive hours.

 

2. Attempting to help cook for Thanksgiving dinner

You were put in charge of making dessert but may have accidentally put beef in a trifle. At least you tried your best, right?

 

3. Walking to the dinner table when all the food is ready like…

Let’s put it simply. HOME-COOKED FOOD.

 

4. Hearing all the family gossip

One of the best examples of what occurs would have to be this…

Monica: And Dad, you know that mailman you got fired? He didn’t steal your Playboys. Ross did!

Ross: Yeah, well Hurricane Gloria didn’t break the porch swing. Monica did!

Monica: Ross hasn’t worked at the museum for a year!

Ross: Monica and Chandler are living together!

Monica: Ross married Rachel in Vegas and got divorced… again!

Phoebe: I love Jacques Cousteau!

Rachel: I wasn’t supposed to put beef in the trifle!

Joey: I wanna go!

Mrs. Geller: That’s a lot of information to get in 30 seconds.

 

5. Looking at all the homework you were supposed to do like…

Maybe you thought about doing it, maybe you didn’t. The most important thing though is that “WE WERE ON A BREAK!!!”

 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
