The start of yet another school year is coming up, and we all know what that means. A time period of scrambling to put everything together that you could possibly need; textbooks, bedding, clothes, food, coffee, and so much more. While it's unarguably exciting to go back (or, for all of the freshman, to just go in general), there are a few things we can all relate to...

1. All summer, you've enjoyed sleeping in your own bed...

Because it's definitely more comfortable than the bricks you're given back on campus.

2. And you've been pretending that you aren't counting down the days before you go back.

From today, there are exactly 9 days before I move back in.

3. For weeks, your only contact with your friends has been through a phone, and honestly, you're sick of it.

Why did I choose to make friends who all live hours away? I don't have time for this.

4. But after all, you lost contact with most of your friends at home, and there's no one to blame for that but yourself.

I'll always love you guys though.

5. But in the mean time, you've been planning out every inch of your dorm room.

So, If I buy this lamp, can I still bring my abundant amount of candles?

6. One day, you wake up and go about your morning routine...

Coffee, a shower, and a few Eggo waffles are a great start to any morning.

7. ...And then you realize that you have less than two weeks before you move in, and you're not prepared at all.

How did summer go by in just a few blinks?

8. Your friends will try to tell you that you have time, but you know how fast these weeks will go by.

Yet, you know they already have all of their books paid for and waiting for them back on campus.

9. But when you go to the store to finally buy what you need, you want to buy everything.

Are twenty pillows too many?

10. There are so many new things that you could possibly need.

What if you can find use for a microwave bacon cooker?

11. Hopefully, eventually, you realize your mistake.

And put back the excessive amounts of new fancy microwave "cookers". You can just use paper towels and a plate to get the same results,

12. But, in reality, you never knew you were missing out on so much.

When did Target become a giant maze of everything you could ever need? Oh right, it has always been that way.

13. When you go to check out, your random assortment of items will shock the cashier.

It's college season. They should expect it.

14. As the day comes closer, you'll enjoy the last few home cooked meals you'll have for a while.

I'm not ready to survive off of ramen noodles again, honestly.

15. Even though you've been counting down the days, you'll still hate saying goodbye once again.

Bye Mom. I'll definitely miss you more than I say I will.

16. Once you see your friends, however, you'll know that being back at school is where you're supposed to be.
