We've all been home now for awhile to enjoy our summer vacation. It's a time to get away from college dorms, college showers and college food. A time to get our tan on, get some home-cooked meals, sleep in a nice comfy bed, see our friends and shower without shower shoes. But I have got to admit I miss college life, especially my college friends. We spent almost an entire year together, getting to know one another, create memories and basically live with each other every day. But our time had to end and we all had to say our goodbyes and see you soon. The summer is great but sometimes we miss having our college friends around and being at college. Being home is great but that doesn't mean I don't miss my home away from home and the people there.
1. I miss having someone to hang out with every day.
I miss that you're only a text or phone call away. I loved being able to shoot you a text so that we could go study (which was always a lie) or grab some coffee and just hang out and have some fun. I miss seeing you every day and just knowing you are there when I need you.
2. Missing our breakfast, lunch and dinner dates.
I miss having you there to go eat with. Being home, waking up and then realizing I can't text you to come with me to get some breakfast is the worst. I miss all of us setting a time for lunch or dinner. I miss bugging you guys at breakfast about what time dinner was because I was always hungry and ready to eat.
3. Going to your room whenever I was bored.
My dorm room is your dorm room. We are always welcomed at each other's room. I miss barging into your room whenever I had something crazy to tell you. From passing or failing a test to telling you some crazy news, I loved coming in and telling you everything. I love us screaming or jumping with joy while people on our floor yell at us to shut up.
4. I miss our shower parties.
We have such a special bond that we can all shower at the same time and jam out to music, even if most of the time it is by accident. I miss singing to Adele and Beyonce in the showers, having our morning pep talks and just telling each other stories. This is something I just can't do at home.
5. Having you there to help me choose my outfit.
From a normal day of classes to a crazy weekend, you were always there to help me with my outfit. I can always go to you to make sure I am looking my best. I love having more than one closet because we would just share our clothes, makeup and shoes. Now I'm stuck snapchatting you my outfits for the day and hoping you'll snapchat back in time before I leave the house.
6. Doing spontaneous things at night.
From walking around town and grabbing coffee and food to just hanging out and doing random things. I always had fun being with you and creating some great memories. We were always up for anything at any time. I miss our Denny's dates and Wal-Mart runs. Our random pizza runs when we were hungry, which was always, was also a favorite.
7. Dance and singing parties.
From before a weekend of going out to a normal day of the week, we could always just hang and jam out to some music and have fun. No matter what we are doing, when we are together we have a fun time. From singing "Hello" by Adele or dancing to "One Dance" we always find time for each other and have great laughs.
I miss you! Each day is a day closer to us being reunited! I can't wait to have more fun and create more memories. Having you there for me in college is the greatest thing ever. Thankfully, the school year will start again soon so we can do it all over again!
