After finishing your final exams, it can be a bizarre feeling to return home from college for the summer, especially knowing that you'll be home for almost four full months. Here are the common emotions and stages experienced when returning home, as told by "The Office":

1. Being overly excited as you realize you're [finally] done with final exams and papers.

2. Feeling mixed emotions as you say goodbye to college friends but are reunited with your family and friends from home.

3. Experiencing extreme nostalgia as you drive through your hometown and see/revisit all of your favorite places.

4. Swiftly eating everything in sight in your house because you were subjected to living on minimal meal swipes at the end of the semester.

5. Being fearful as you eye your multiple pieces of luggage and realize the daunting, seemingly impossible amount of laundry you'll have to do that's staring back at you.

6. Being confused when you forget to remember that your room has one bed, not two, and that your roommate isn't also sleeping there.

7. Almost falling asleep despite your best effort during dinner with your family after a long week of studying, packing, and traveling.

8. Avoiding any questions that your parents ask regarding your finals because you've tried to forget how strenuous they were.

9. ...but later being pleasantly surprised when you receive your final grades and realize you didn't do as poorly in some of your classes as you had expected to.

10. Then convincing your parents that the college tuition was definitely worth it.

11. Feeling like the luckiest and most delighted person in the world because you now get to sleep in your non-dorm bed, which you once took for granted but now so appreciate.

12. Giving yourself a few relaxed, unproductive days because after a long semester you definitely deserve it.

13. Finally being rested enough to jump (or attempt to parkour) into your summer schedule.
