After working hard, or hardly working for an entire semester, there are so many things to come back to in the fall.

1. Go to your favorite restaurants.

Enough said.

2. Spend time with as many of your friends from home as possible.

It's always good to catch up with your friends and hear about their college experiences... school, parties, boys, and so much more.

3. Let your parents make you as many home cooked meals as they want to.

My mom even asked me for a list of food I wanted to eat while I was gone.

4. Snuggle up with your pets or friend’s pets.

There really isnt anything better than when your dog is extremely happy to see you and wont leave your side...even when your're sleeping.

5. Get annoyed when your parents nag you about your plans.

After having so much freedom to do whatever you want when you want to at college, letting your parents know what you're up to feels tedious and annoying. Ultimately they are just asking because they love you and want to spend the most time possible with you before you leave again.

6. Walk around your neighborhood and reminisce about old memories.

We all have landmarks in our hometown that we have made countless memories at, but this time it feels different.

7. Sleep for hours on end.

Because why not.

8. Binge watch shows without feeling guilty.

Yes Netflix, I am still watching thank you very much.

9. Planned on working out...nah, but "for real" this time.

No matter how much you plan to work out, you end up in bed binging netflix.

10. Get pumped to go back to school and see all your friends.

When the whole squad is back together.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
