10 Things College Students Do When They Get Home For Winter Break
The Odyssey Online

Going home for winter break and not having to worry about school for a few weeks is the one thing that keeps you sane during finals week.

The prospect of having some time to be lazy and not have responsibilities is both comforting and exciting. Every college kid knows what this hope feels like - and every college kid has one thing in mind that they cannot wait to do the second they get home. Here are the top 10 things college kids are planning to do the second they get home.


1. Play with your dog

Let's be honest... no one is more excited for you to be home than your dog.

2. Spend time with your family

Don't deny it, you missed them too.

3. Cry tears of joy

The excitement of being home can be quite overwhelming

4. Collapse on your bed

Dorm beds just don't cut it anymore

5. Eat a home-cooked meal

Mom's cooking > Caf pizza

6. Take a bubble bath

Lush bath bombs anyone?

7. Binge-watch mindless T.V. shows

Because now you can blow 12 hours of your day on nothing and not feel guilty

8. Bake chocolate chip cookies

There is something oddly comforting about the smell of chocolate chip cookies

9. Unpack your car but leave everything in your living room and never actually put anything away

It is just not worth it to really unpack when you can just leave all your stuff scattered around the house

10. Burn your old homework

Don't deny it; you want to light those calculus assignments on fire and watch them burn. Just the thought of looking at them anymore makes you cringe

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire.
