Almost There!

It's that time of the school year where homework is incredible overwhelming, and has reached it's peak. Exams are hitting you right and left, and you don't even know what you've studied for, and how much you remember anymore. You just know your brain can't handle much more. It's rainy every day, and you must wear your winter jacket, that you have grown to accept that it won't match with what your wearing half the time, but it keeps you warm and dry, so it doesn't even matter.

At this point in the semester, there's one thing that motivates you to keep pushing though. It's so close, you can almost smell the Turkey on the table, with the pumpkin pie in the oven for

dessert. Mmmm!! Bring out the Christmas music, Almond Roca, and apple spice candles, cause Thanksgiving break is almost here!

This wonderful five day break, is what keeps us overwhelmed college students determined to keep studying even when we think our brains can't obtain one more sentence of information. College students are probably one of the most thankful group of people on Thanksgiving. Because it means that the peak of the semester is over, and we don't have to stress out too much until finals. We get to enjoy the peaceful five day weekend of fall. Hanging out with our family, relaxing and catching up on all of our TV shows that we've become behind on over the past few weeks, and be able to take time to be thankful!

However, I can't escape from reality for now. Because as I sit on my floor in my bedroom writing this, I look down and am surrounded by notebooks, text books and flash cards, which remind me that I must keep studying for my test.
