![“For me it evokes family, kind of a connection, but not necessarily blood family. Me with my personal family, like mother, father, brother, sister, we never really celebrated Thanksgiving. But I celebrate Thanksgiving with all of my friends from middle and high school. We call it Friendsgiving. So whenever I think about this time, I always think about them.”
