1. Finals are over and summer is finally here!

The time of pure freedom has finally come. You feel on top of the world because you are done with the hardest part of the year. It's time to kick back, relax, and not worry about essays or exams for a few months.

2. The feeling of superiority when you see past classmates.

Going back to your hometown for the summer includes seeing your old peers; however, you have grown and matured since graduating high school, so naturally you are the bomb.

3. Realizing you have to go back to work to revive your bank account.

Now, looking at your bank account makes you wonder if spending all that money on food was really worth it. College isn't free and money doesn't come easy, so off to work you go.

4. Realizing your 30-hour work week puts a damper on your summer plans.

Long ago are the days of plans with friends and spending meaningful time with your family. Vacation plans are out the window, and your social life goes down the toilet.

5. Accepting your ideal "summer bod" isn't going to happen because food exists.

Home-cooked meals are one of the things college students miss the most when they are at school, so there is minimal self control around food during the summer.

6. Realizing you miss almost everything about school.

You can no longer walk into your best friend's room when you are bored, need to rant, or just want to have a good laugh. Not having a set schedule to keep you on track also leads to laziness and oversleeping. Weekends are not fun anymore because of work and you find yourself counting down the days until you go back.
