So you're home for the holidays...now what?
At first when you get home, you are so freaking excited! You finally get to sleep and you don’t have to think about school for at least a month. You are looking forward to doing absolutely nothing school related, catching up with old friends, and cuddling with your animals.

Then it gets to the holiday celebration part and suddenly there are really happy people everywhere and you see more people than you every really wanted to see. Of course, there's also the Christmas parties and fruitcake.
Then the extended family members arrive from out of town. You are quickly reminded why you all only get together once a year.
However, they do come bearing gifts, which are sometimes so good you think you might actually send a thank you card.
Then it’s New Years and you make your list of resolutions.
Then two weeks later your resolutions have been broken because of Holiday leftovers and home cooking.
At this point you have seen all of the people you wanted to catch up with, your family has asked you 12 different times what you plan to do with the rest of your life and who you're dating, and you spend a lot of time hiding in your room watching Netflix and pretending to be asleep.
You can’t wait to be back at school with your friends and you weirdly miss classes because it gives you something to do.
Give it a couple weeks and you’ll be wishing you were dealing with your family again.
