I never would have thought that I would love somewhere so much that I would miss it so much just being away for three months. Not even three months, I've barely made it two.

The place that I miss oh so much is my school, which reminds me that I really chose the perfect place for me.

There are so many things to miss about your University, and here are some of mine.

First of all, I miss my friends. A lot. I honestly never realized how much my friends I've made at school meant to me. Of course I love each and every one of them dearly, I just never realized how much time I do actually spend with them when we aren't hours away from one another. I miss all the smiling faces I see on campus between classes so dearly. I miss the late night Walmart runs, the Starbucks dates, the random adventures, and so many other things I do with the people that my University has brought into my life.

I'm not going to lie, I miss my set schedule that classes and other extra activities provide me. I love structure, and being away from all the things to do on campus makes me miss the business that the school year provides. I love the somewhat organized chaos that I find at school. Call me crazy, but I miss my set (and full) schedule so much.

I miss being on my own. This summer is the first summer I've lived at home in two years, and it has really been a shock. I didn't realize just how independent I had become until I decided to live at home for my last summer in college. I miss being on my own routine, and not having to worry about who was hogging the shower or leaving the hallway light on. Independence is one thing I gained by going off to college, and something that I've learned to treasure very much.

I miss my campus. Nothing makes you appreciate the little treasures on campus like being away for a while. While my University's campus may be small, it sure is pretty. I can't wait to get to see it every day in just a few short weeks.

I also miss the food options around town. Mostly because I love food, and each town has little restaurants that are so unique and oh so good. I especially the little burger joint next to campus. Of course I can get a good cheese burger anywhere, but no one does it quite like The Dixie.

There is oh so much to miss while I'm away from my University in the summertime, but being away will make coming back so much sweeter. I can't wait to catch up with all those smiling faces on campus, to finally have a (somewhat) scheduled life, to be independent, to see my beautiful school, and to eat all the good local food once again.
