Coming into college, I would have never guessed just how many little things I missed from home. From my missing my brother and sister to just laying in my own bed, you really do realize that the little things are what matter the most. Whether you live 3 hours away or an hour away, everyone will eventually miss home just a little. Here are the top 10 things you miss from home when you are at school!
1. Your own bed.
No matter how hard you try, your school bed will never be as comfortable as your bed at home.
2. Your room.
Similarly to number one, your dorm room is just not as cozy as your bedroom. Also, while I ADORE my roommate to pieces (shoutout to her- love you roomie), there are some moments where I miss having my own room.
3. WiFi
At school, the WiFi is TERRIBLE so it is always nice coming home and not having to wait a million years for a page to load.
4. Free laundry.
Who would have thought that something so small could end up being expensive? Doing laundry at home is always nice since you don't have to worry about how much money you need to wash one load of clothing.
5. Private bathrooms.
Having a communal bathroom just isn't always ideal. At home at least you're sharing a bathroom with one or two people, or if you're lucky, no one.
6. Home-cooked meals.
Because dining hall food gets real old real fast.
7. Your pets.
Who doesn't miss their furry friends when they're at school!
8. Your friends from home.
Your home friends have a special place in your heart as you all watched each other grow into the person you are today.
9. Your siblings.
Whether younger or older, you have a connection with them that can never be beat. When you're at school, there are times where you just miss being around your siblings, making jokes, watching YouTube videos, or singing songs at the top of your lungs.
10. Your mom.
Because your mom is the best person out there.
