Seven Reasons Why Going Home For Winter Break Is The Best

Once finals are over, you get to head home for winter break. Here are just some of the reasons why going home is the best! Do they apply to you?

1. First of all, it's the HOLIDAYS!

You finally get to go home and take a break from college! It's the holidays; Christmas music is playing everywhere, your Christmas tree is up in the house and under it are presents for you!

2. Your parents prepare all your favorite food and snacks.

While at college, you don't have money to buy snacks or food. You don't even have time to prepare food! Back at home, your mom or dad can whip up your favorite foods you haven't had in a while. Plus, you can ask them to buy your favorite snacks for you! Mwahaha

3. You get to spend time with your siblings

You haven't seen your siblings in forever and you missed them while you were away at college. It's finally nice to see them and go back to the old days where you fought over shotgun of your parent's car.

4. Squad time! You get to see your friends and catch up on EVERYTHING.

You haven't seen your friends in months, and it's finally time to see them and catch up on everything. From gossip, to college life, to studying, to college shenanigans.

5. WiFi actually works in the house

It's not like at school, where WiFi works half of the time, and the other half, it's just slow. You finally get fast connection and can watch YouTube videos in 1040 HD.

6. BED! Your own bed, the most comfortable thing in the world.

You don't want to go back to your college dorm bed after spending time in your own comfy bed. Your bedroom and bed is the most home like thing ever.

7. Normal showers and maybe even a nice, bubble bath.

You can finally take a shower in the comfort of your own bathroom, and not worry about someone walking in on you as you take a shower. You can even take a bath with a Lush bath bomb!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
