7 Things I Will Miss After Winter Break

Winter break has truely been a blast. I had so many memories that I wouldn't trade for anything and I am sad to say that we are back at school. I love school and all, but I already winter break. Here are seven reasons why:

1. Family

It sucks when you get so use to seeing your family everyday and then having to leave them to go back to college. All those family activities and home cooked meals is over. I don't know what I would do without my family. My winter break wouldn't have been the same without them. Until next time fam!

2. Friends

I have a few friends that I am still close with from high school and one of my favorite things to do when I am home is spend time with them. I love my college friends but something about my friends from home is something special. They been around for so long and I don't know what I'd do without them. The few memories we spend together is something I will always cherish. I know people say college friends are your friends that stay, but heck I love my friends from high school.

3. My Dogs

Where do I even begin? Who doesn't love to come home to your pets? If I could bring my dogs to college with me I would. They're just always so happy to see you and it leaves such a warm, fuzzy feeling. I guess I'll have to settle for the millions of picture I took on my phone of them until next time.

4. Wawa

I DON'T HAVE WAWA NEAR MY COLLEGE. Honestly, I love Sheetz. I really do, but nothing compares to Wawa. If you have a Wawa by your school, don't take it for granted. I am so sad that I can no longer eat from Wawa.

5. Sleeping in

Who doesn't love sleep though? I will miss being able to sleep in. Some have jobs over break and can't relate, but for me, I was able to sleep as late as I wanted. Though it was hard getting use to not getting up for classes. Now I gotta go back to my old sleep schedule and I am not physically or mentally prepared for that.

6. Being stress free

Not having to worry about school all break was a nice feeling. Sure I still had to worry about my senior project, but for the most part, it was nice. Not having to worry about all of the homework and projects that I usually do was so relieving. Though I am not gonna lie, as school was approaching, I did feel the stress slowly creep into my mind. I guess you can never really get away from your responsibilities at school, even if you are on break.

7. My bed

My bed is something I absolutely hate leaving. I am use to dorm beds seeing as I am a senior, but nothing beats your bed at home. It's comforting physically and mentally. My bed is where I feel most comfortable.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
