12  GIFs for the Returning College Christmas Nomad

Whether you go to school in your hometown or out of state, coming home for the Holidays is always an interesting sight and can be harder to adapt to than expected...


So, here are 12 GIFs that sum up the events that take place when the College Christmas Nomad comes home for the Holidays!

1. Arriving home and finding a mom-vamped room instead of your bedroom.


2. Having to remember to tell your family for permission when you want to do anything.


3. Curfew...


4. Finishing finals and all you want to do is sleep.


5. Having food at your fingertips... For free.


6. No longer having to ask your parents for money.


7. Being bored out of your mind.


8. Thinking you have something due the next day resulting in 2-second anxiety attacks.


9. Going to sleep at 3am and waking up at 8am every night because of your crazy-messed up body-clock.


10. No true privacy.


11. Siblings. Enough said.


12. Oh yeah. Let's not forget Sunday Night Football made up of mostly tv-yelling.



But no matter the unexpected craft rooms, sibling rivalries, or the haunting boredom nothing compares to spending the holiday with the ones that love you just as much, if not more, as you do.


Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
