After a long nine months of work, maintaining a social life and joining as much as possible, and as fun as college is, home is definitely calling your name. There are so many things to enjoy while being back in your hometown that you may have taken for granted before going to college.

1. Seeing your dog

There is nothing like coming home with your dog to greet you at the door, especially for the first time in months.

From trains to long car drives to see each other as much as possible during the school year, the feeling of being with your boyfriend, back in the place you met, is one of the best feelings in the world.

5. Real food

Home cooked meals and food from your favorite restaurants never tasted so good.

6. Driving around your hometown

Driving with the windows down, blasting music with your friends back in your hometown, a place you're familiar with has never been so satisfying.

7. No school work to worry about

It's time to have a carefree summer without tests, homework or walking to the library for study sessions.

8. Sleeping in your own bed

Falling into your own bed after spending two semesters in a small twin size bed is a luxury.

9. Shopping at your favorite hometown stores

Coming home from college means a shopping spree at the stores you haven't been to in months.

10. Realizing how good it feels to be home

There is definitely no place like home.
