Coming home from a long school year is great, We finally get the break we need from the constant stress of school. However, there are some things that we dislike about home; mainly little things that people don't realize are important to us. Here's a few that come to my mind:

5. Why are you working so much?

I mean, isn't it obvious? We are all working endless hours at entry level jobs just to have a few bucks for when we go back to school. Oh yeah, we also like to pay our bills and have money for leisure. We are also all in crippling student loan debt, so please obliviously ask me again why we work so much.

4. Why aren't you outside? Why aren't you doing anything?

Sorry. But some people enjoy having personal time. We go to school all year, and that entire time we are sleep deprived. What's so wrong about staying in bed? It's not like we're doing something dangerous like snorting bath salts.

3. Why are you always on your phone? Your friends from school can wait.

No, just no. We spend so much time with our college buds that we become family. We love checking in with each other and talking daily. It's so annoying to hear people tell us not to talk to them. How would you feel if we asked you to stop talking to your friends? Being apart for the short summer still sucks. Just let us have fun snap chatting ugly photos of ourselves to each other.

2. You've changed since you left.

Well, I hope we all did! You're supposed to change when you go away to school. You start to be independent. You mold your own opinions. Change should be embraced, not punished. No one is the same person their entire life. We change with each and every expression. Personal growth should never be frowned upon.

1. *Insert parental saying about my house my rules*

I'm not saying disrespect your parents, but they need to cut us some slack. We have matured in college, we don't need to live by their high school rules for us. Talk to them about rules. Do you really deserve a curfew? Do you really have to put a quarter in a jar for an accidental expletive? Let us enjoy our short amount of time at home before we leave again.
