There are so many great things about being home and away from school that I have started to realize in my first summer back home from school. I guess I didn't always appreciate everything that was available to me at home. I've been thinking about the things I took for granted but also the things I will miss about school. College was really special but I will for sure enjoy the three months of not paying for everything myself and edible food.There are a few things about college life that I can't get at home. I've only been home for about a week, but I've been thinking about the things I will miss about being at school and the things I won't.
1. I miss having a few of my best friends and favorite people in the world close to me all the time. Spending so much time with these people makes it crazy to have to be away from them for so long.
2. I don't miss eating the same meal every day because the dining hall doesn't have other food.

3. I miss the late nights sitting on the lounge floor, eating pizza, trying to do homework with my best friends.
4. I don't miss depriving myself of sleep because I didn't start my homework early enough.
5. I miss laughing about the most stupid things at 4 a.m.
6. I don't miss having to stay up all night.
7. I miss being able to make all of my own decisions.
8. I don't miss having to remember every single thing I have to do because no one is around to tell me what to do and feeling pretty clueless about everything.
9. I miss my bed and the funny little conversations I would have with my roommate before we fell asleep.
10. I don't miss paying for laundry twice a week.
11. I miss having a roommate that will yell at me to clean up my stuff and take care of me when I need to be.
12. I don't miss going to class and taking tests.
13. I miss having a house full of some of the best girls I have ever met that can make me feel better instantly.
My first year at college was so fun and I met so many amazing people. So wonderful to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.
