Summer has been great and I love being home more than anything. But, I would be lying if I said that I wasn't ready to go back to school yet. I am ready to stop the 10 hour shifts and the sleepless nights. Those are just a couple of the reasons why I am ready for summer to be over.

1. College Friends

Most of the friends you meet in college don't live anywhere near you, because why would they? So you finally get to spend all your time with them, and if you are lucky like them they will even live with you.

2. Ten hour shifts

THANK GOD FOR PART TIME JOBS!!! You probably no longer have to work your life away since you have school to worry about now too. Who knew you would be so thankful for homework?

3. Routine

Wake up. Class. Work Out. Party. Repeat.

4. Everything in a 5 mile radius

Anything and everything you need is finally within walking distance again.

5. Grandpa's cooking

Mmmmm, nothing like a good ol' hamburger after a long week of studying.

6. Football games

You can't tell me you aren't excited to chant, GO BIG RED!

7. Building connections with others in your profession

One word: Adulting

8. Independence

You have been in this awkward limbo of kind of an adult but also still living at your parents house after coming back from college the first year. So you get to go back to school and do your own thing when you want now.

9. Chores

You can clean when YOU want to clean.

10. SLEEP!

This probably feels like a word that you don't normally see when talking about college. But oh my gosh are naps that best things to ever happen to me.
