Winter break for college students can be a fun and relaxing “vacation” from mounds of schoolwork and the many stresses of college life.

It can also be a little challenging, what with navigating being back in your hometown, being back under the same roof as your parents, holidays with many family members, and so much more.

As most student’s winter breaks are winding down, let’s take a look back at what our breaks may entail as told by the one and only Michael Scott of "The Office."

1. Coming home knowing that you'll get a few weeks of sleeping in your own bed, home cooked meals and some holidays in between.

2. Those first few days after finals when you just want to relax.

3. When your parents ask you to do something for them but you like being difficult.

4. When your mom starts telling you about all the things she's making for Christmas dinner.

5. When you see your best friend from back home for the first time since the last break.

6. After you open all your Christmas gifts.

7. When you and your favorite cousin get together.

8. When your sibling starts to tell your family about all those parties they saw on your Snapchat.

9. Drinking wine with that one wino Aunt at Christmas and pretending you know your wine.

10. Getting asked for the 14th time what your major is and what you want to do after graduation.

11. When your family members start talking about something that happened while you were gone and you don't know the whole story.

12. When you're with that one family member who is always down to drink with you at holiday parties.

13. When you pull up somewhere in your hometown and you see people you went to high school with.

14. When your mom makes your favorite dinner and you want to savor every last piece of it while you can.

15. When you are starting to miss your college friends and the parties.

16. When you know it's time to start ordering books and preparing for the new semester, but you don't want to.

17. When it sinks in that winter break is over and it's time to go back to school.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
