Summer break are two of the sweetest words to every college students ears. No more projects, papers, or reading assignments for a whole three months (holla)! It's time for much-needed relaxation that turns to pure boredom within the first week of being home and starting to count the days until you move back. It's fun being home with your family and friends, but you start to miss all things about college. Being home boredom is much different than college boredom. At college, you have dozens of people that are minutes away whenever you need them. At home, some of your friends don't come home for the summer, they're working so you're left with being entertained by your cat or dog.
