8 Luxuries Of Coming Home For College Breaks
Stylez Now

Going home for college breaks seems like a fairy tale— you have your bed, your favorite restaurants, and the love and care of your parents. When you come home from college, you will definitely experience these incredible and indescribable feelings.

1. When you take your last final exam

There is no better feeling than when you drop your pencil on your last exam and know you will be home in just a few short hours.

2. When the long ride is almost over and you start recognizing the area you're in

You get those happy butterflies in your stomach when you pass by your favorite stores and friends houses, anxiously waiting to pull into your driveway!

3. When you have your own room again

You have the freedom to walk around naked and dance like nobody is watching without the fear of someone seeing.

4. You don't have to wear shower shoes

You can actually get in the shower without the fear of rubbing up against the gross wall or accidentally touching a toe to the infested floor.

5. You convince your mom to drive you everywhere

You know how to drive and you might even have a car. But there is something so special about having your mom drive you around again just like when you were a kid.

6. Your dad is HYPE to cook for you.

He is so excited to have you back that he will literally make anything you ask for. Even if he destroys the kitchen in the process of it...

7. You can sleep in your own bed

There is no feeling like when you get into your own bed and you immediately sink into the best sleep you have gotten in months.

8. You get to bond with your family

You get to spend time with those who matter most, and since you spent so much time apart you can truly appreciate what family means.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
