All semester, my older, wiser friends have been warning me about the withdrawal symptoms of coming home from your first semester of college. Like anyone addicted to anything, I thought I'd be fine quitting cold turkey, but my pals were proved right as I called my best friend not even twenty four hours after being off campus. So to cope, I thought I'd give you a little taste of what it's like to be gone from college for Christmas break for the first time...as told by Supernatural.
1. When you're done with your last final
...and literally all you want to do is get back to your own bed and sleep.
2. When you get that first home cooked meal
You don't even care how anyone else looks at you or how it tastes. I mean, come on, at this point, anything is better than caf food.
3. And when mom does your laundry
Ah, so that's what clean clothes are supposed to smell like.
4. But then you realize all your friends are back home, too.
How does anyone expect you to live without them for a month?!
5. When your parents don't understand why you're homesick.
"But you are home! We've missed you!"
6. And then Christmas day comes
and you forget about everything else for a solid twenty four hours.
7. And then finally, you get back to campus
and even though classes are about to start, you're just happy to be back with all your college pals.
Even though there's lots to miss back at school, don't forget to be present with your family over the holidays! They missed you, too, and you're friends will be there when you get back! Merry Christmas!
