Let's face it: coming home from college isn't all what it's
cracked up to be. Of course in the midst of all the finals, all you want to do
is assume the fetal position and get comfort from your mom, or kisses from your
dog. But the sad reality is that it's not what you imagined at
all.

You swear on that tweet that you can't even handle it with studying for
finals and want to be done with them. We've all been
there before. But do you really want to leave your college town and friends?
Because in some cases, your home will not meet your expectations.
Here's a list of thoughts you might have had when coming home for summer, as told by Jimmy Fallon.
1. The stress from unloading your car exceeds the stress
from finals.

2. You
have too much junk.
3. You
don’t know if you should ask for permission to hangout with friends.
4. And
when you do, there’s now a curfew.

5. So
you’ll probably just stay in your house because another episode of "Friends" just
started.
6. You’ll
shamelessly mold your body into the couch.

7. And
then continue to lay there for the next five hours because why not?
8. You’ve
been reminded what it’s like to be bored.

9. Then you’ll remember how much you hate being bored.
10. Should
I ask if I can pour a glass of wine or?

11. You’ll
look in the pantry for food only to find your blasted flavored goldfish have
now been replaced with the 100 calorie Cheese-It pack.

12. You’ll
go to the grocery store to shop for what you want, along with 47 items that mom
wants.
13. That trip to the store now consists of other errands that she slides on to that
list.

14. You
can’t check to see if a hot guy is driving that truck because apparently dads drive trucks now too.

15. Don’t
even try on your old t-shirt from freshman year of high school. It’s not an XL
Comfort Color, so why bother.
16. Your
pets will take over your Snapchat.
17. Until
you realize they do absolutely nothing but eat and sleep.
18. But
of course one more selfie with them cuddling on you because you don’t think
your friends understand how cute they are.

19. You’ll
get bored again.
20. You’ll
stay up till 2 a.m. because it’s the norm.
21. You
notice your coffee addiction.

22. You
now have two of everything (i.e. toothbrushes, hair products, deodorant).
23. Suddenly
other types of toilet paper exist.

24. You
now notice how terrible your shower head pressure at school is.
25. You
can’t leave the house without looking somewhat decent because who knows who
you’ll run into.

26. Like you could run into your ex from high school.
27. You’ll
laugh at how you cared so much about that relationship.

28. You'll continue to laugh at all that drama in high school.
29. Then you'll wonder how you ever made it through seven hours of sitting in desks all day.
30. You’ll
realize that pool parties at home aren’t like the pool parties at college.

31. Your
patience will get tested with your parents.

32. Multiple
times.

33.
You'll have a better understanding when someone says that, "Times
have changed." Especially in the case of past friendships.
34.
You'll realize that all you want is fall semester to start so you can be
back in your college town.
