Traditions

The one tradition my husband and I look forward to every thanksgiving is deep-frying the turkey. The reason we look forward to it is because it was the only thing that we could agree on to cook during our first thanksgiving. To us it is a symbol of how we have built our family and came together as one. The way we do it is I defrost it because my husband is very forgetful and tends to leave ice on it and I always seasoning it because my husband thinks I am better at then him. Then he deep-fries it because I think he is better for the job and besides he always worried that I am going to get hurt. Once the turkey is done, which is usually about two or three hours later, we sit down and enjoy some traditional food from both sides of the family. Which is hard to compromise on what to eat because neither of us really likes what the other usually eats expect for the turkey.

Whats a community

Studying is a community. Studying is a community because it is made of thousands of people striving to do the same thing, be the best they can be in school. This exact thing holds them together sharing that same common ground. They are willing to help a follow student when they are having a hard time understanding something. A lot of times studying is done in groups so that more students can get help from others. Just about, everybody in this community share the need to be one of the best students, because if they are they will get further in the career of their choice. Some of the differences that work against this community are that not everyone can be the best student or people have different views in how much time should be put into studying.
I fit into this community because I am a college student. Most of my life is studying for a different class every day. I am proud to be a part of this community because it is filled with people with same ambition that I have. If I ever need help or advice, I can turn to someone in this community for help because they understand what I am going through.
