Lots of students are doing last-minute preparations before they go back home for the celebration. But not everyone is leaving. If you are someone who will stay in college during this time, there are still a lot of fun things that you can do during the week! Here are some ideas about how to spend your time.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Walk around downtown Salem and go into stores you have never been to before! What better way to give thanks than to support our community? There are a lot of small businesses around that you might not even know exist! For reference check out Maggie Raker\u2019s series right on this page and past publications to see which places sound interesting to you!<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Binge-watch holiday specials and Thanksgiving movies! It can feel like there aren\u2019t enough Thanksgiving movies but, to give you some ideas, animated movies such as \u201cFree Birds\u201d or \u201cA Charlie Brown Thanksgiving\u201d are great cozy options to lay back and enjoy the free time.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You might have friends who will also stay on campus. Therefore, a fun idea to pass the time and create your own celebration would be to organize a Friendsgiving! Everyone can bring their own dish, or you can cook together and really appreciate the presence of those important people in your life.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0And when it&#8217;s your turn to say what you are thankful for, make sure to reminisce about those moments full of laughter and connection between you and your peers. I am thankful for all of you. Have a great Thanksgiving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Andrea Flores<\/p>\n<p>Staff Reporter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanksgiving break is around the corner.
