With spring break arriving or passing for most college students, not everyone has chosen to take the typical tropical vacation for a variety of reasons. However, not to worry, because home is just as great! Here are a few reasons why:

1. Sleeping in your own bed

You simply can't beat your own bed, there is no better place on earth!

2. Using your own shower

Forget those flip-flops and long waits, it's time to shower in your own shower.

3. Spending time with pets

Nothing is better than seeing your four-legged best friends and even better, they are always happy to see you too.

4. Reuniting with friends

Getting to see your hometown friends is an amazing feeling and the time spent apart makes the time spent together that much better.

5. Family

Spending time with the ones you love is truly special and chances are they are thrilled to have you home as well.

6. Rest and relaxation

With the stresses of school, a little relaxation can go a long way and home is certain to provide that.

7. Home cooked meals

As great as the food at your school may be, nothing tops a good home cooked meal; particularly if you find yourself cooking for yourself now.

8. Laundry

Nobody likes paying for laundry or carrying it all the way to the laundry room. Home provides the opportunity to do it for free in the comfort of your own dwelling. Who knows, you may even be able to get a family member to do it for you.

9. Cleanliness

Chances are fairly high that your dorm room or apartment may be a bit on the messy side. Going home typically means a clean, neat house and provides the opportunity to escape the chaos for a while.

10. Stress free parking

Enough said. Nothing beats driving home and quickly and easily pulling into your parking spot without the worries and stresses of driving around campus looking for a place to park your car.
