Whether we want to admit it or not, we are all going to miss college -- even if it's just for the summer. We walk around the same campus every day, seeing the same faces with unfamiliar ones, but soon enough, this will come to an end, and the chaos of responsibilities takes over. We don't realize it now, but each day we spend together is a memorable one. These simple things matter:

1. Being surrounded by your friends all the time.

Whether it be with your roommates, suitemates, or a friend down the hall, everyone is so close to you every day. Yeah, sometimes this is overwhelming. But it's so convenient to walk up a flight of stairs or two doors down to spend time with people who make you happy. No more having to get dressed, get in your car, and drive all the way over to a friend's house -- just walk 10 feet, rolling up in a messy bun.

2. Being able to take a nap literally whenever you want

There are no boundaries when it comes to napping. No parents to tell you to “get up and do something with your life.” Wanna sleep at 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 p.m.? Your twin XL bed is calling your name.

3. Getting a little too excited for the free T-shirts/towels/balls at all sporting events

College students love free accessories. Whether it be a corny T-shirt that is one-size-fits-all too big for you, or a graphic tee of your college mascot, it’s free, so we’ll take it. And you bet when campus emails you that the first 50 fans to come to the game get a free ball, we’re leaving an extra 25 minutes early.

4. Making your own schedule

You have the option to schedule your classes however you want. An opportunity like this will never come again! Once you’re in the big world, it's work work work work work work. *cue Rhianna*

5. Living away from home

OK, we all love mom's home-cooked meals, but let's face it: We are out on our own for the first time in our lives. No one to tell you to clean your room, get to sleep, or do your homework. Once you get back home, rules set in. In college, you make your own.

6. Going out on a weeknight

Even though we have a 7:45 a.m. bio lab Thursday morning, it’s still acceptable for me to take this bottle of wine to the face tonight, right? The answer is always "yes" to a college student. It’s even so normal that it becomes a bit concerning if you haven’t drunk on a weeknight.

7. Designing your own room

We are our own interior designers when it comes to our dorm rooms. Managing how to stack the beds, move our dressers around (with no problem) and decorating our walls with trendy tapestries is soooooper cute. Plus, its the only time it is acceptable to have a mini fridge and microwave in your own room.

8. The college comfort food

Yeah, we all complain about it every day because we are so used to it. But once we’re away from the cafeteria’s french fries, quesadillas, cookies, or “chef’s choice,” we start to miss it. Especially being able to order delivery or walk down the street at any time for a late-night pizza.

9. The parties

Yes, the parties don’t stop after college, but they will never be the same. At what other time in your life will you be able to leave one party and walk two doors down to the next one? Never.

10. Making new friends

The friends in college are the ones we keep forever -- so the story goes. You can meet as many new people as you want. The more you friends you make, the more acceptable it is to act like an idiot ... because now, solo idiot days are over.
