It’s that time of year again! Time to leave school work behind and eat three times our body weights in delicious food. Thanksgiving and winter break are just weeks, even just days, away. But before we can reach wherever we are going to the holidays, there’s always the process of getting from school to there. This article is for you travellers who know the struggle. Packed into a vehicle with clothes, food, gifts, and of course your lovely family members, you know you’re in it for the long haul. But it will be worth it. Because mashed potatoes. So here you have it, 21 thoughts everyone has when stuck in the car for 4, 5, 15 hours (or more).Â
