The Benefits Of Going Home For Spring Break

Spring break is right around the corner. Most college students realize they do not have enough money to go anywhere. Many might be upset because some of their friends are going away, but after you read these five benefits you'll be happy you are going home.

1. FREE food.

Yes I said it free food. The thing most people spend all their money on. There is an unlimited of free food in your house back at home.

2. Home-cooked meals.

Another great part about going home is momma’s cooking. Think about the dinners. Think about how much better they are going to be then dining hall, and better then any place you would’ve been eating. Nothing beats home cooking.

3. Clean beds.

That’s right: no risk of bed bugs at some hotel you have never heard of. No rock hard uncomfortable mattresses either. You get to have nice clean sheets and cuddle up in your comfy bed.

4. You do not come out more broke than you already were.

When you go home you most definitely do not spend as much money as you would if you went somewhere. Your bank account will definitely be happy with you.

5. You’ll make your mom and dad happy.

We all know that our parents miss us a lot when we are at college, and that we miss them. They will be grinning ear to ear while hugging you (sometimes not letting go). They will be pleased because they won’t have to worry about you being somewhere even further than school.

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.
