It's the end of spring semester and you're heading home. After weeks of studying, parties and finals you're excited for your break during the summer. This excitement lasts all of 2 days until you're bored out of your mind. This is what I like to call the back home slump.
It's the feeling you get when binge watching Gossip Girl and eating Cheetos gets boring. You look down at your cheese stained t-shirt and just don't feel right, you feel like something's missing. You're bored and feel like a lazy slob.
And it's crazy because during the semester that's all you wanted to do, but now the inactivity drives you up the wall. And Instagram is no help; honestly it's part of the problem. Seeing your friends from college in cool tropical places makes you even more annoyed.
I've found the best way to get out of this slump is to fill up your calendar any way possible. Find a new job, take some classes, start a bible study; do anything to get your mind off of your boredom. As humans it's a part of our nature to keep progressing, and keeping your summer busy, not matter how annoying that may sound, is the best way to do that.
And who knows, you might even enjoy it!
