When I come home, I’m always amazed at how much I missed it. I love college, don’t get me wrong, I think college is great. Being away from home I have seen things that I didn’t realize happened.
First of all, my home bed is amazing. Bigger than my dorm bed and more familiar, making it all that much better than the dorm mattress offered to me. I have all my favorite blankets and pillows on my home bed.
Second, I’m not eating dining hall food at home. My parents make me food that I like. I love the food my parents make me! And they’re so good to me! If I want pancakes and I ask nicely, either my mom or dad will make pancakes for me. (Thanks Mom and Dad!) If I want pancakes at school, well I’m out of luck.
As if all the food and the bed weren’t great reasons to miss home, my pets are at home. Waiting for me to come back, always excited to see me! When I come home, I’m greeted by so many animals. My two puppies, who are arguably not puppies as they as both over three years old and 130 pounds, always run to see me when I come back. My three cats actually come and weave through my legs, even though when I lived full time at home the cats usually regarded me with disinterest.
Being home is amazing. I love being home, I almost don’t want go back to school, but I know I have to. I know I’ll love being back at school, but I love home and I’m glad I got to spend a week at home.
