When you finish your last final and realize that you're free for a whole month:

When you walk through the door and see your dog for the first time:

When you finally get your hands on food that isn't from the dining hall:

And you finally get to sleep in your bed:

When you see your best friends for the first time in months:

And you make all these plans to hang out over Christmas break:

When in reality, you lie in bed all day and watch Christmas movies by yourself:

And when you do finally decide to celebrate the holidays with your friends:

When you hear "AlI Want for Christmas is You" by Mariah Carey come on the radio:

And when your family yells at you for singing too obnoxiously:

And when a long-lost family member says "Wow, you're all grown up:"

Trying to pick out an outfit for Christmas Eve mass:

And at Christmas dinner, when your family members ask why you don't have a boyfriend yet:

The look you give your siblings when your aunt gets a little too drunk at Christmas dinner:

When Christmas is over and all you want is to go back to school:

And when you drive past your old high school:

When you realize you how messed up your sleep schedule is:

And when your parents finally drop you off at school for the spring semester:
