Thanksgiving is more than just a day off or a break from school, it’s more than just a holiday. It’s more than just stuffing your face with mash potatoes and turkey.

The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade was live streamed on TV. However, my host mother could not watch it because she was still busy in the kitchen fixing dinner for us. She really wanted me and my housemate to have a good impression on Thanksgiving

Lauren: I had some right outside the door; I’m going to go call my parents to let them know we have made it.
