1. Find a Friend
This may be awkward at first to ask a friend if you could attend their Thanksgiving meal, but usually the family would love to have you.
2. Volunteer
There are LOTS of needy people around the Topeka area around Thanksgiving time. Many soup kitchens and other organizations set up times for those who do not have meals to receive a little something. You could volunteer your time to one of these organizations.
3. Make Your Own
If you have other friends that will not be going home for Thanksgiving, think about setting up your own thanksgiving. You don't have to have any of the traditional foods like big turkeys and green bean casserole. Think about making it a potluck so there are many types of foods.
4. Take the Day Off
Is there a movie you have really been wanting to see but haven't had time? Take Thanksgiving as a day for yourself and do whatever you want to do. Put down your homework and your planner and relax.
5. Do Your Work
Maybe you do need another day to work on assignments and get stuff done. Catch up on homework and assignments so you are ready for finals when you go back to school!
