In less than a month, Tar Heels will be back in the greatest college town in America, and by now we are ready to take on a new year, drink out of the Old Well on the first day of class for that 4.0, insert *sigh,* and begin a new exciting year. Here are a couple signs that we are more than ready to be back in Chapel Hill! Enjoy.

1. For some reason you get anxious around 11:30 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and then it hits you that you're still not used to staying in on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
2. You miss being able to walk to Med Deli after class, stumble upon Sup Dogs on a Tuesday night, and Thursday’s margarita specials at Los Pos.
3. Your GroupMe is starting to blow up again but it's not bothering you.
4. The people at your gym are old and/or not nearly as attractive so now you're missing the SRC too.
5. Anytime someone mentions Halloween, you invite them right away to celebrate it with you in Chapel Hill and go on and on and on how "Halloween on Franklin Street is like no other Halloween."
6. You thought by mid summer you’d be off the waitlist for that class you need, so not getting those UNC class tracker text messages is making you antsy.
7. You smile when you see a stranger wearing Carolina gear.
8. You've gone through about four series on Netflix and you're asking yourself why the hell you even started the fourth one.
9. You were checking out someone at the bar and then you realized it was your TA.
10. Your dog is taken aback when you suddenly want to take him on a walk.
11. Well it’s not basketball season yet, but you still can't wait for football tailgating to start and you have a renewed sense of hope thinking, “we’re gonna do a lot better this year!"
12. You miss being around your friends 24/7.
13. You miss the familiar faces, and people awkwardly tripping on the bricks on the way to Phillips because they were too busy with their phones.
14. And of course, FDOC!
