Towards the end of the fall semester, the only things on all college students' minds are 1) Finals and 2) Winter Break. The stress of finals week will soon be met with the relief of two and a half weeks of pure relaxation...or so we think.

For most of us, including myself, the stresses that come with being at home far outweigh those that are included with an 18 credit, two job semester. However, it's not all what it's cracked up to be between family, working, and waiting for the inevitable: another semester on the horizon.

Not only is Parks and Recreation a binge-watching worthy series of hilarity, it also provides some great one-liners that accurately describe every college student's thoughts about coming home for winter break.

If you're anything like me, you'll spend your first few days of being home stationed on the couch with Netflix to keep you company. And then all of a sudden it's December 22nd and you've forgotten to finish Christmas shopping and the panic sets in...

So when you do finish up shopping (gift cards for everyone!!), and it's finally the day before Christmas you're all like:

But then the realization of what is happening sets in and you figure out who your best friend will be during holiday gatherings...

And you're forced to see family you only see one to two times a year and you're like:

When family starts arriving and begins asking the usual questions: "how's school?" (fine), "have you graduated yet?" (no grandma, I'm only on my third year), and the always fun "why don't you have a significant other yet?" you're thinking:

But because food is included in all holiday celebrations, and you've eaten nothing but cafeteria food and coffee for an entire semester, you eat like you've never seen real food before...because calories don't count on break, right?

And finally, when all of the family interaction is over and you can finally relax and enjoy some quiet time...

So you go on Facebook to see how your friends spent their Christmas, and everyone and their brother is getting engaged, and you really want to be happy for them, but you're also kind of like:

Then, after the excitement of the holidays is over, you realize how broke you are and have to spend the rest of your break working...

Of course, you won't work TOO hard, because as we all know...this is a break and you have every right to.
