5 Reasons Coming Home for the Weekend is a #Blessing

College is fun and exciting, but is also extremely tiring. Sometimes it's nice to have a weekend to refuel at home.

5 Reasons Coming Home for the Weekend is a #Blessing

1. Home-cooked food.

Let's be honest, getting to eat a home-cooked meal by your mom is one of the biggest reasons you are excited to go home. Not to mention, you're pumped to check out an actual fully stocked fridge with real food.

2. You can be lazy.

Your mom actually encourages you to become a couch potato for the weekend and is so excited to have you home to watch endless hours of episodes of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

3. Laundry.

You don't really do your laundry at school (as consistently as you should) and are out of clean socks and underwear. Luckily, you're going home with your laundry basket as your suitcase because your mom will probably be happy to wash and fold your clothes.

4. Family.

It's refreshing to stay in for a weekend and catch up with your siblings and parents. After all, you have to admit to yourself you actually kind of miss them (A LOT!)

5. Your bed.

What is better than coming home to sleep in your own comfortable bed for countless hours??? Seriously, nothing. You get to sleep in your own bed without hearing your obnoxious neighbors keep you up all night. You also realize it's probably time for you to take down your posters of hot guys from your J-14, TigerBeat, and M magazine phase.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
