We all have those things that make us miss home every day (even though we do not always want to admit it to Mom and Dad). It may be different for us all, but we can all admit we do miss some things a lot. No matter what things you may miss most, here are the top 10 things college students miss from home as told by "New Girl." If it is still new to you, and you do not miss much, just remember...
10. Quiet
It seems like everyone has a reason to make noise either in your dorm or on your floor, but sometimes, quiet can be nice, too.
9. Baths (or showers without shower shoes)
While you may get used to showers with shoes, there is nothing like laying down in a nice bath or just being in your shower. You may feel clean at school, but you never feel this clean...
8. Your Hometown
There is something pleasant about the familiarity of your hometown and the people in it. You know where to go, and when, and you never feel lost no matter where you are, not ever this lost...
7. Pets
There is nothing worse than leaving man's (or woman's) best friend at home. No one wants to do it, and it never gets easier leaving them at home. Especially when they are your best friend.
6. Not having to do your own laundry
It just gets done so much faster.
5. Driving wherever, whenever
There is a kind of freedom that feels lost when you are stuck on campus without help from anything but an unreliable shuttle. It also is hard to not be able to belt your favorite song while riding down the highway (I felt this goes without saying).
4. Your bed
You can make your bed on campus as comfy as possible, but nothing can compare to your bed at home where you can spread out and fall asleep comfortably.
3. Privacy in the bathroom
Trying to time out when to use the restroom makes the morning routine just that much harder.
2. Your parents (even though we don't want to admit it)
We love them, even when they try to ground us. And although we will not admit it, we probably miss them the most. We probably all had that moment post move-in where we broke down because we missed them most.
1. Home-cooked meals.
This one is absolutely self-explanatory. If you prefer caf food to mom's home-cooked meals, you are absurd.
While we all love college and living on campus, there are always those things we miss about home. The freedom and fun you have on campus, though, is incomparable to anything you can have at home. I may miss some things at home, but as for now, I am liking it here at school.
