Coming home for the holidays and spending time with friends and family is the highlight of the year. It is nice to spend time away from your small dorm and the stress of homework, or tests. While returning home to see old friends is nice. You certainly start missing your new friends and life at college after awhile. Below are ten thoughts you have when you come home for the holidays after the first semester.
- I forgot how nice it was the have my own room.Your roommate may be your best friend and you may love her to death, but there is no feeling like being able to shut the door to your own room.
- I’m not sure how I feel about this weather. If you go to school in a different climate like me, it was a struggle to return to a different climate. Having to wear a coat and gloves when walking outside.
- Hey, old friends!You might have seen your old friends during Thanksgiving Break, but now you guys have a month to see each other and catch up.
- I can finally get a decent sleep. You need the whole break to catch up on all the sleep you did not get during the semester. There is no shame in sleeping until noon or past noon if needed.
- This place looks different.So much has changed in your town in the four short month since you were away.
- I missed home-cooked food.Insomnia Cookies and the food in the dining hall is only tolerable for so long. It is nice to return home for a home-cooked meal.
- I wonder if my friends miss me as much as I miss them. Your college friends are the family you get to choose. You spend almost each day with them, and it is hard when you have to separate from them.
- I miss football season. Game day was the best part of the week, and Saturdays are not the same without them.
- I really don’t want to do more school work, but I kind of miss my friends.You miss the people but not the work.
- How many days until break is over?College is stressful and hard work, but it is one of the best experiences.
