Let's face it, college is pretty awesome. The ability to take classes you're interested in, time to socialize and bond with incredible friends, and so much freedom... does college have a single downside? Well, I can think of one - leaving for the summer.
Here are some pretty cool things that are trying to be as rad as college, but really just can't compare:
1. Chilling Poolside.
Being at the pool just isn't as fun without your college friends nearby.
2. Eating watermelon all summer long.
I could eat watermelon every day without complaint, but I'd much rather be craving fruit from my dorm room.
3. Adventuring at a cool waterfall.
Exploring nature is awesome, but so is finding new sights to see and adventures to have around campus.
4. Enjoying a refreshingly frosty beer.
At school students have much more freedom to enjoy these cool drinks when they choose.
5. Reminiscing on childhood with Ice Pops.
But let's be honest, having an impromptu dance party to Destiny's Child with the roomie is a way more fun (and probably healthy...who knows what an ice pop is actually made of) way to throw it back to the younger years.
6. Practically nothing can top laying out on the beach...
7. And sure, maybe you can go back to visit campus for a weekend,
So to all the universities out there and to my beloved NC State especially: we miss you, college.
