October break is finally here! Us college students made it through over a month of being away from home. For a lot of students, Columbus Day weekend is the first time they get to go home since school started. Being away from home made me realize how many things I didn't know I would miss so badly while at college.
1. Your pet gives you the best greeting ever.
Pets are full of love for their owners and want to show you how much they missed you while you’ve been away at college.
2. You have a room all to yourself again.
Your room at home is where you can be have all the privacy you need and not have a roommate five feet away from you.
3. You finally get to have real home cooked meals.
The food at college is not bad, but after a while you want nothing more than to have your mom’s cooking.
4. You don't have to wear shoes in the shower.
You don't realize how much you took a clean bathroom for granted until you went to college and had to share a shower with the girls on your floor.
5. You get to sleep in your bed.
Say goodbye to that twin-xl for a few days, you're going home to sleep in your warm, comfy bed!
6. You spend time with your family and friends.
This is the main reason why everyone is so excited to go home, you missed seeing your friends and family everyday!
We take these things for granted when we have them everyday at home. But like they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder, and you will appreciate your life at home more when you are away from it for a while.
