THE TURKEY DUMP.

In a perfect world, every relationship lasts forever. But in college world, everyone knows that sometimes things just don’t unfold in the most ideal way. Turkey Drop is a reminder of this.

While your cholesterol and weight are rising, some things are getting dropped. I.e., significant others. Hence how this sub-holiday received its title. People who thought their relationship was invulnerable to the changes and trials that college can bring about may just see otherwise during this season of thick gravy and thicker realizations. That cute girl who had a boyfriend back home when school started? She may just be coming back to school as a part of the singles parade. That boy who’s been “taken” (to the dismay of multitudes of females) since the first day of classes? He’s as solo as Han himself.

It’s a sad thing to recognize sometimes, but the truth still stands. Not everything works out every time. Sometimes, after you’ve been given some time apart, the truth just becomes clear. And the Turkey Drop is a solid time to take  action if things just aren’t going like they should. Don’t wait for Christmas. Christmas is too harsh. If it’s going to happen, let it be under the blessing of the Pilgrim’s.

Welcome to college.
