1. “I really need to do something besides laying in the same position every day…”
The couch to the bed the Netflix binge isn’t as fun without impending stress from studying you should be doing.
2. “I think I gained weight “
A fully stocked fridge was one of the most beautiful sights as you stepped through the door, but you’re feeling a little more pudgy than normal.
3. “I miss my friends!”
Seeing everyone from High school carries equal amounts of nostalgia and relived teen anxiety, but no matter the love you have for your hometown besties your heart lies with your people in college.
4. “OKAY, MOM/ DAD!”
Plain and simple you’re used to freedom, being alone, and making your own rules. Reliving your parents’ “this is my house” power trip can get old.
5. “What day is it?”
On your travels back home you thought of all the fun adventures to go on from exploring your near by city to eating at your top five restaurants, but time flies faster than you think, especially if you don’t even know what day it is.
6. “ I need structure”
Every day in college is controlled by the constant motivation of completing projects, attending events, going to class, and catching a moment of fun with friends AND all of it is scheduled! It has to be; otherwise you’d harm your GPA, social life, or resume builders. Now without any real push pull to your day you feel like your floating in a pool of slush and cant and wont do anything.
At the end of it all enjoy your break and soak in all the lazy possible, because HERE COMES NEXT SEMESTER!
