Going home for winter break is something almost every student cannot possibly wait for. We count down the days until all of the exams are over and we can finally start making our way back to where we first migrated from. Here's just a few reasons why going home is so exciting.
1.
You get to shop at the grocery stores that you've been shopping at for years. Sometimes you can only find that special type of Ramen Noodles in one certain store.
2.
You can finally get caught up on that T.V. series you haven't watched in about 7 months. (Unless you're me and binge watch Netflix every single day of your life.)
3.
You can eat something other than what you've been eating for months. Sometimes Wendy's and Papa Johns just doesn't cut it when you see your family at home eating a traditional family recipe.
4.
You get to FINALLY see your pets and annoy them for a good month and a half. (Unless you don't have pets, in which case you can annoy your friends from home all the same.)
5.
You can stock up on things necessary for your survival. (Example: Socks and underwear.)
6.
You can cuddle your family. No matter how old I get, I will 100% always cuddle my mom.
7.
You can catch up on all the sleep you've missed out on during the fall semester. Sometimes you just need a five-hour long nap.
Whether you're going home or traveling away, winter break is the time where everyone can take a breather and become refreshed before spending another couple months in utter despair and misery. But that's college for ya!
