Mostly A’s- Relax. You deserve to watch three seasons of your favorite show on Netflix in your PJ’s. Watch Once Upon a Time, Stranger Things, or The Office
Mostly B’s- Go Black Friday shopping. Grab a group of friends and scour your favorite stores at the mall for great deals and compete to see who can save the most money.
Mostly C’s- Help cook. If all you like to do over Thanksgiving break is to eat, you should at least know how to make your favorite food. Jump in the kitchen and ask whoever is cooking to teach you how to make a new dish.
Mostly Ds- Spend time with family. A whole week of lounging around can get boring after a while, so hang out with your younger cousins. Play board games, or even a quick game of soccer outside. They’ll really appreciate being with you.
