Don't get me wrong, school is so fun with parties and friends, and of course the classes, but coming home on the weekends, even for just one night, is just so nice.

1. Doing laundry for free

It's slightly outrageous that I have to spend $1 for using the washer and $1 for using the dryer. It's even more outrageous that the dryers don't dry completely, and I have to spend another $1 to do a second drying cycle.

2. Not having to go out in the cold to get food

It is definitely not worth walking outside in freezing weather to get some subpar scrambled eggs and soggy french toast.

3. Seeing my parents

Even though I may get so annoyed with them when I'm home on long breaks, I do miss them more than anything.

4. Cuddling with my puppy

My dog and I have a love-hate relationship. I give her food, and she loves me. I pick her up and dance with her, and she hates me, but I will always miss her when I'm not home.

5. Sleeping in my own [big] bed

Twin beds are not fun, so when I get a chance to sleep in my king-sized bed, I take it.

6. Not wearing pants

My family has lived with me for 20 years, and it isn't uncommon for me to walk around without pants on, but it's awkward to walk into one of my five other suite mates without pants on.

7. Free food

Not only is the food in the refrigerator free, but it's also free when we go out to eat, because they know I'm a broke college kid.

8. Cable and DVR

I have it set up so that all of the shows I like are recorded, and they stay on until I get to watch them.

9. Good wifi

We all know the wifi can suck at school, so coming home to wifi that doesn't go out once a day is an extreme treat.

10. No drama

It isn't surprising that living with five other girls can cause some tension sometimes. Getting away from all of that is too nice.

11. Soup when I'm sick

I may be 20 years old, but I still love when my mom takes care of me and gets me soup when I'm sick.

12. Baths

Showering for as long as I want and taking baths is my definition of paradise.
