We all know the feeling of sitting through that last class before you sprint back to your car or to the bus so you can go home for Thanksgiving, but what we try not to think about is the horrendous trip back to school after you're full on turkey.

Here are the top 10 worst things about coming back to school:

1. Say goodbye to home-cooked meals, say hello to the dining hall!

I hope you stocked up on leftovers from home, because you're going back to the same meals you've been eating for the past three months.

2. For most of us, welcome back to your smaller, more uncomfortable bed

Hello, back pain.

3. Roommates.

I hope they don't snore.

4. Set that alarm clock for those morning classes

Rise and shine, people. Rise and shine.

5. I had homework over vacation... sh*t.

Remember that pile that you kind of just put in the corner of your room and pretended to forget about? Yeah, that's all due tomorrow

6. Having to say goodbye to your family, including your furry friends.

Make that last hug tight

7. Don't forget to throw on those flip flops before you shower!

No more showering like a normal, clean human being! Time to put shoes on in the shower.

8. I hope you had fun not working, because your job starts up again Monday night.

Ah, yes. Back to that job that makes takeout possible but also is annoying and boring.

9. You wanted to sleep tonight? Oh, I'm sorry. Your neighbors invited everyone they know over.

No matter how many times you bang on the wall to ask them to shut up, it probably won't work.

10. Oh, yeah. Finals are in two weeks.

Get your study on girlfriend, its go-time.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
