It's that time of the year again ladies and gentlemen. Time to go back to college after a long couple of weeks home. You've been home since before Christmas time, spent the holidays with your family and friends and now you're back at school being faced with another 15 weeks of classes ahead of you.
Spending time at home for a while was nice in the beginning but after about two weeks it gets a little... well... boring. You came back and got to see all your friends, get into your routine at home, reunite with your bed and dog for a few weeks and got used to your lifestyle back at home. It was nice to spend all that time with no worries about which assignment you have due at 12 o'clock that night, and you can sleep until 2 p.m. Being around everyone from home was surely refreshing, but after awhile you're ready to get back into the swing of things.
Here's what you realize when you come back to school after being at home for a month:
1. You have no shampoo and conditioner left at school.
2. You forgot what it was like to look like a decent human being and take on your day at a normal hour.
3. Having the freedom to do whatever you want, whenever you want is one of the greatest feelings in the world.
4. Realizing you have to find rides/Ubers everywhere now at school when you were so used to driving around at home.
5. The food at school is absolutely disgusting, and you miss your mom's cooking.
6. You're broke.
7. Being apart from your friends for that long leads to separation anxiety and you never want to leave them again.
8. You have no money on your laundry card and realize you have to do it all on your own because your mom isn't able to wash your clothes for you.
