Get out!

After the debauchery that is Harvard-Yale weekend, many Harvard students trudge through a few more days of class and then head home for Turkey Day. For those who plan to remain on campus, however, FM has your break destinations covered:

1. GRUB

Want that turkey taste without paying flight fare to return home for family cooking? Grab the college equivalent (read: economical), a Turkey Club, from the highly rated and super casual Charlie’s Sandwich Shoppe in the South End.

429 Columbus Ave., Boston. Monday-Friday 6:00 a.m.-2:30 p.m., Saturday 7:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m.

2. THE GREAT OUTDOORS

If you’re an active person or just enjoy the public humiliation that comes with routinely falling on your face, head to Boston Common for the Frog Pond Ice Skating Rink. While many students explore the rink later on in the winter, go now to take advantage of the (slightly) warmer temperatures.

84 Beacon St., Boston. Monday 10:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m., Tuesday-Thursday 10:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m., Friday-Saturday 10:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m., Sunday 10:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m.

3.  DROPPIN’ DOLLA BILLS

While the idea of Christmas shopping this early makes some cringe, Black Friday sales are a perfect way to make cheaper holiday purchases that will give your Aunt Sandy a cheek-to-cheek grin. One of the best places to find great deals is the ever-amazing Target. Reach the Watertown Location at the Arsenal Mall by catching the 70 Bus into Arsenal St. Station.

550 Arsenal St., Watertown. Doors open at 4:00 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 26.

4. STARS AND SPORTS

Clearly Shaq wants the attention of Harvard students—his random visits to campus to pose as a statue and his decision to challenge the crew team to a race suggest that the 7’1” basketball star truly loves his fans in Cambridge. Show him and the rest of the Celtics your support by catching their games against the New Jersey Nets or the Toronto Raptors.

TD Banknorth Garden, 100 Legends Way, Boston. Wednesday, Nov. 24 against the Nets, Friday, Nov. 26 against the Raptors. Both games start at 7:30 p.m.

5. PRETTY THINGS

Get in touch with your VES side and head to Jamaica Plain to check out the new exhibit “What Stands Between Us and the Sun” at the AXIOM Center for New and Experimental Media. The piece uses both video and photography to create an “an artificial lake in an invented world where performers alter the lake’s structure to fabricate an eclipse of the sun.” Experience this mind trip for yourself by taking the 1 Bus, followed by the Orange Line to Green St. Station.

141 Green St., Jamaica Plain. Wednesday 6:00 p.m.-9:00 p.m., Thursday 6:00 p.m.-9:00 p.m., Saturday 2:00 p.m.-5:00 p.m. and by appointment.
