When you're excited to be home, but get a lecture about something as soon as you walk in the door.
But you get over it, and instead decide to smother your pets with love after not seeing them for months.
You get excited thinking about all the free time you now have...
...only to realize that you actually have nothing to do.
So, you decide to hang out with old high school crushes...
...and hear about what your hometown friends have been up to at college...
...or have a Christmas get-together with your extended family.
You finally get the nerve to check your grades online...
...and convince yourself that it's going to be OK.
Your mom starts cooking Christmas dinner and gets a little overwhelmed...
...but she loves the Christmas present that you bought for her!
Then, you slowly begin to realize that the new semester is approaching quickly...
...and you decide you need to cherish this time you have left with your family...
...and get yourself ready for the new year.
