Stages of Thanksgiving as Told by “Friends”

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

1. November 1st 

College students everywhere are having withdrawals because Halloween is officially over but there’s still 3 more weeks ’til break! 

2. That one midterm right before break

Still trying to figure out what words and numbers mean cause all you can think about is turkey. 

3. Finishing your last class

Finally, the feeling of freedom and the smell of turkey. 

4. The morning of…

You immediately wake up into thanksgiving mode. 

6. When you see the turkey for the first time

A meal that isn’t easy mac or ramen noodles!

7.  “Accidently” eating all the mashed potatoes

Every man for himself! 

8. Contemplating seconds

And the answer always being yes! 

9. Dessert

Never forgetting to save room for the pumpkin pie! 

10. The food coma

Having to lie down in bed for 5 hours cause you’ve eaten your body weight in food, but it was totally worth it!!

Happy eating!
