While we all love and count the days until Thanksgiving break, no one gets particularly excited about coming back and it's not only because you have to leave the comforts of home behind.

1. You come back knowing you have about two weeks left of class before exams hit, and you realize you did nothing to prepare during Thanksgiving break, other than eat.

2. You realize on the Sunday that you come back that your teachers did actually send homework for the break, and you have an essay due the next morning. So you do everything you need to do on that Sunday night, thus getting no sleep whatsoever even though you are probably jet lagged or at the very least you are sore because the bus ride back took you six hours.

3. Your teachers also realize you only have two weeks left of classes, thus they must impress upon you everything they didn't manage to include in the curriculum during the semester.

4. On top of homework, you are trying to study for the upcoming finals which you have been dreading since the semester started. While doing this, you are also scrambling to do that one project one of your teachers assigned instead of an exam, that you actually wish would be an exam because it would take less time to prepare for.

5. You are so close to the end, and yet those last three weeks seem unending. Until that final exam where you can finally get back to your room and catch up on the sleep you have been deprived of for weeks.
