It's the middle of April, and the school year is coming to a close. We're just a couple of weeks away from moving back home for the summer, but it doesn't quite feel real yet. Just in case it hasn't hit you, here are all the good and bad things to anticipate for summer 2k16.
Pro: You'll get to see all your friends from home.
Con: You'll have to manage to live without your college friends for three months.
Pro: If you're lucky, your parents will do your laundry again.
Con: You have to live under your parents (and their rules) again.
Pro: Two words: bigger bed.
Con: No more nightly sleepovers with your roommate.
Pro: You won't have any school-related responsibilities.
Con: You have to get through finals first. Sorry.
Pro: The beach/lake/pool will be your second home.
Con: You kinda forgot about getting bikini-ready, oops.
Pro: You have all summer to work out! You can just have a great winter bod.
Con: You have all the time in the world, therefore no excuse to be lazy and not work out.
Pro: You have all the time in the world so you can finally finish (or start) that Netflix series.
Con: Let's be honest, you're gonna get caught up in Netflix and not exercise. Eh, maybe next summer.
Pro: You get enough time to work and make money or build your resume (or both if you landed a great job).
Con: Not all your days will be spent beaching, Netflix-ing, or sleeping.

Pro: Laying out at night and listening to grasshoppers is so relaxing.

Pro: You might get to go on summer vacation to a different destination.
Con: If your summer vacay involves a long road trip with the family ... you're in my prayers.
Pro: You'll talk to your friends from school everyday to make up for how little you see them.
Con: Your friends that live a short walk from you nine months out of the year are now probably spending summer in their home state, far away from you.
Pro: School's out for summer!
Con: School's out for summer.
