Most of us college students have experienced the reluctance of going home for spring break, or, at least, the reluctance to go home for some other holiday, while our other friends are off skiing or at some exotic beach. In honor of Ben & Jerry's releasing three new (absolutely delicious-sounding) flavors this past week, let's go over the emotions of going home for spring break, Ben & Jerry's style.
1. Holy Cannoli
I can't believe my friends skipped their Friday classes so they could catch their flights to Mexico and New York. And while I'm here in my 2:30 class, thinking about how this is going to be the Longest. Week. Of. My. Life.
2. Hazed & Confused
OK, am I sure I used to live here for 18 years? This does not feel right at all... I miss my real home, my 10x10 shared dorm room with perpetually dirty floors.
3. Chubby Hubby
OK, so there is one upside to being home: mom's cooking. It definitely comes at a price (her talking my ear all dinner), but it absolutely beats cafeteria food. Except I won't be able to fit in all those jeans I left at school...
4. Half-Baked
Oh, sweet, some of my out-of-state friends are back for the break, too. Time for some fun.
5. Chocolate Therapy
Wow, the week's almost over? OK, I definitely won't admit this to my parents, but this has actually been pretty nice. No classes, no professors, no annoying daily emails from the school with pointless reminders... Plus, none of the stress of traveling that my vacationing friends have had. Maybe I'll even come home for summer...
6. Coffee, Coffee, BuzzBuzzBuzz!
Was that really a full week...? Doesn't matter — it's Sunday morning and I am almost back to campus! Can't wait to finish off a sweet semester. Definitely not going back home this summer.
