We're in the final stretch -- literally. As we take down finals one by one, we get even more excited to go back home and enjoy the well-deserved break before classes start up again. So whether you're procrastinating studying for the last couple finals, trying to kill time in the airport as you wait to finally fly home, or you're already crawled up in bed: here are 11 things we are all anticipating experiencing when we're back home from college.

1. Reuniting with your family and your best friends from back home.

Reunited and it feels so good.

2. Running into all these random people from high school.

You were never really good friends with them, but you still feel inclined to say hi to them and maybe even have a quick conversation before going on about your day.

3. And those moments you run into the people from high school that you never thought you'd see again.

Will they notice if I hide behind this trash can?

4. Trying to survive all the small talk during family holiday parties.

What's your major? Do you have many friends in college? How often do you do laundry?

5. The "subtle" judgment from everyone about not knowing what the hell you want to do with you life.

Sorry not sorry. I don't have my future planned out on some Excel spreadsheet.

6. The hella great desserts at holiday parties.

Gingerbread cookies, pie, you name it. The desserts seem endless.

7. Having no homework and no exams to worry about for a long time.

You can sit back and relax. The next semester isn't for a while.

8. Realizing that you have so much free time.

So you end up filling up your time by picking up random hobbies...or just sleep and watch Netflix all day.

9. Remembering you're at home and your parents begin to reinforce their rules.

You can't stay out as long as you want and more often than not, you'll have to take out the trash and do the dishes according to their schedule.

10. The feeling when you shower without shoes on.

Well, that's gonna take some getting used to.

11. Recognizing how different everything is since you've been away and realizing how much you've grown.

Yeah, things aren't the same as they were before. But you're growing up and moving on to bigger and greater things.
