Because I am from California, I tend not to go home except for the bigger breaks. Thus, for Thanksgiving, I stay on campus. That is not to say that people do not invite me over for Thanksgiving break, but most of the time I have a lot of work I want to get done, and it’s nice to have some alone time.
Normally, I spend Thanksgiving eating junk food (aka Chex Mix) and watching cute romantic comedies. This year, I was invited to go out to dinner and watch a movie with one of my friends from work.
I had the best time ever! I have been going through a lot of changes this year, and she has been really understanding about all of it. I learned a lot about her past and how she learned things in her life, and I think it helped me put a lot of things in perspective.
After we had a bunch of deep discussions, we went to see Disney’s Big Hero 6, which was such a cute movie! It was nice to have something lighten up the serious conversations. This was a Thanksgiving well spent!
