The First Week Of Summer As Told By "The Office"
Stream guide

It's finally summer! That means that you are leaving college to head home for three months of fun. You've finished your exams and you're waving goodbye to your home away from home as you pull out of campus. Even though summer is the one season that we look forward to all year, there are several inevitable stages that we go through. There is no better way to illustrate the first week of summer than by using "The Office" to do so.


1. At first, you leave college.

Your dorm room is empty, your bags are packed, and you're ready to finally go home!


2. You say goodbye to all of your college friends.

You can't believe that the year is over and that you already have to say goodbye to your friends. However, it's all right, you'll see them in August.


3. You realize that you won't have to take classes again for another three months.

Final grades have been posted and you passed! You don't have to open a textbook or take notes for another three to four months!


4. Then, you roll up to your house after not being home for all of spring semester.

That's right, you're back in town and you're ready to party.


5. You're reunited with your family.

Even though you've had a great semester, you've missed your family. Now, all they're going to ask you about are your college adventures.


6. You've missed your pets.

Let's be honest, you missed your pets way more than your family.


7. When you unpack your bags, all that you want to do is go on vacation.

It's summer, so that means that it's vacation time. This is the perfect opportunity to get the tan that you've always wanted.


8. Then you realize that your family has no plans, so you're not going on vacation.

So much for posting the best pictures of your awesome family vacation. I guess that you'll have to make other plans.


9. You decide that you're going to get in shape.

This is going to be your summer. No one can stop your epic fitness plan and all-natural diet.


10. hen you start binge-watching Netflix.

You now have time to watch the new episode that your friends have been raving about. Your big, comfy couch is calling your name.


11. You also realize that you can sleep until noon.

There's no need to set that an alarm for your 8:00 a.m. class. As long as mom doesn't wake you up, you can sleep for as long as you want.


12. You get to enjoy all of the home-cooked meals, as you don't have to eat dining hall food.

You have been waiting for a home-cooked meal for months. Finally, you can eat all of the food that your heart desires.


13. You are faced with the fact that you will not be getting in shape this summer.

That fitness plan that you were going to stick to is not going to happen this year. Maybe it'll work better in the summer of 2017?

14. You reunite with all of your high school friends.

Even though your lives have changed dramatically since high school, you've missed them.


15. The whole squad exchanges their crazy college stories.

Since all your friends go to different colleges, you absolutely have to catch up on all of the drama.


16. As soon as you get home, your parents expect you to do chores.

This was not what you had in mind for your summer break.


17. You start to realize that you're not going to have as much freedom as you did during college.

You really took for granted how much freedom college gave you and you're starting to miss the days when you could do practically whatever you wanted.


18. With all of this free time at home, you need to find a new hobby.

Maybe you'll start a fashion blog? Why not play the guitar? Take up yoga? The opportunities are endless.


19. Suddenly, you have to start your summer job.

Since its the summer, it's time to make money. Whether you're interning, waitressing, or lifeguarding, you have to save up cash for the fall semester.


20. After one week on the job and your first exposure to real life, you realize that maybe college wasn't so bad after all.

It turns out that working is hard. You thought that your summer job was going to be a breeze. You thought wrong.


21. You start to count down the days until you can go back to college.

So, it turns out that college wasn't as bad as you thought that it was. Now, you miss your college friends, your classes, and even your tiny dorm room. The countdown to fall semester starts today.

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
