If you haven't left for college, this will be extremely relatable. It is almost September and I have yet to leave for college. All of my friends have left, work has ended, and at this point, I am slowly going insane. The amount of goodbyes that have been said already are crazy, yet I am still chilling at home all alone now.

Most people would say, "why are you complaining about being home?" or "you have more time to prepare yourself". In all honesty, this just makes me, and I'm sure anyone else in this situation just want to leave and start a new adventure more. Waiting to leave makes me feel more anxious and excited all at the same time. Freshman year is about to start and I am watching all of my friends experience it through social media. Snapchat stories and Instagram just makes you realize how boring your life truly is while all of your friends are having a blast at college.

Being the last one home also makes you want to buy more and more unnecessary things for college. People are posting pictures of their adorable dorms and it makes you think that you should be buying more. Do I need more picture frames? Should I have more posters? The answer in reality is probably no, but your brain is saying yes.

I mean, there are some benefits to still being home. You get to binge watch every Netflix show possible. Pretty sure I watched "Stranger Things" in two days (amazing show by the way). At some point you even start watching every food video on Facebook for hours. Another benefit is the food. You don't have to start eating easy mac and ramen noodles everyday yet! There is nothing like a home cooked meal and soon I will definitely miss that.

Soon I will leave for my first year of college and I can't wait. Even though my friends are all scattered throughout the country, it makes me happy watching them have the best time in college and knowing that will be me in just a week. Some people will say I didn't take advantage of being the last one home, but trust me, it is time to leave and start the next chapter in my life.
