It is finally that time of the year to start packing up your dorm room and head home for the summer. Still hard to believe that we all survived and now it is just time to sit back and relax. No more homework and no more books. No more music blasting through the halls and no more crappy food. You're finally able to go home and start those summer adventures that you have been dreaming of throughout finals week. But first, every college student will do these 10 things before they really start their summer and make the transition from hell to a few months of nothing but fun.
1. Give your pet a hug
Honestly you'll probably run to your pet before you even say hi to your parents or siblings. Gotta have your priorities straight.
2. Take a nap in your own bed
Nothing says home like that first time sleeping in your own bed. Hard to believe that they even make beds that are wider than ten inches.
3. Have a home-cooked meal
Nothing says home like your mom's homemade mac and cheese. You no longer have to suffer through the caf meals, surviving off of 2 hour old pizza. Better yet, you won't have to walk a mile in order to get food or spend the time trying to look presentable.
4. Take a shower... Without shower shoes
Your feet will finally be free of the dreaded shower shoes.
5. Live out of suitcases for the next few months
Even though you'll have over 3 months of relaxation and fun, you won't take the time to unpack your suitcases. Way too much effort.
6. Not survive off of eating peanut butter straight from the jar
Yup, this is how I survived college, but now I'll actually have real food to eat.
7. Sleeeeeeep
No more 8am classes. No more roommates waking you up. No more music blasting through the wall hours of the night. Peace and quiet.
8. Maybe make some money
After all those late night dominoes orders and online shopping sprees you may want to start making some cash in order to save up for next year when you blow the wad again.
9. Give your car a hug
You will finally be reunited with your car, just in time for those summer adventures.
10. Wish you were back at school
What do you mean I can't stay out until 4 in the morning? And I can't even walk around with vodka in my tumbler? Dayumm! Who knew I'd want the college life back.
Summer time is great, but you will definitely miss college and all the good times and memories that were made. Make sure to enjoy the summer and have some good old times with your high school buds.
