Ah, winter break. The time of year when college students can finally take a break from their semester-long responsibilities and basically hibernate while binge-watching Netflix for an entire month. Most college students embrace the thought of winter break and embrace it while it's here, but with everyday of Netflix and relaxation comes greater difficulty to accept the thought of break ending. Here are some common emotions that college students feel during the last week of winter break:

1. When you realize you still have a whole week left of winter break before classes start.
