Thanksgiving!

Every year I look forward to the great holiday of Thanksgiving not just for the immense amounts of great tasting food but also for the time I can spend with my family. To me, Thanksgiving is just a preview for Christmas break. I love spending time with my family and what better way to get together than over a table with a warm delicious meal. According to the Baltimore Sun, Americans consume 46 million turkeys on Thanksgiving! I look forward to not only the original meal, but also the leftovers that are sure to follow. But back to the topic of families, I could not imagine the students here who are not able to go home for Thanksgiving. But what I love about Witt is that it can be like a family and it is great to know that these students are able to go home with their friends and celebrate with their families. A tradition me, my aunt and my mom do every year after dinner, is strategize what our plan of attack is for the next day: BLACK FRIDAY. I love shopping and it is something the women in my family bond over. I could not imagine missing out on these activities had I chosen to go to a school across the country.
