Winter break is always something I look forward to once my fall classes begin. Even though I don't really do much during winter break compared to summer vacation, I enjoy staying at home and giving myself a bit of TLC. As this is my last winter break before I graduate college, it seems like this is my last chance to do a couple of these things without worrying about what the future holds for me. This winter break has been filled with several kinds of thoughts and emotions because of this. However, I've managed to enjoy the most out of it.

1. Finals are finally over. Time to sit down and take a breather.

We can relate when it comes to finals weeks. We're all stressed out trying to hand in papers on time and studying every single day for just one final. But once that very last final is over, it's time to just lay back and relax.

2. You're ready to eat some good homemade food instead of bland college food.

After a while, the food on campus gets boring and flavorless. Personally, I enjoy going back home just for the delicious food my mom makes. And since winter break starts a week or two before Christmas, panes rellenos and tamales are always being made.

3. Sleeping in is a blessing and a curse.

Getting as much sleep as possible can get difficult when you're living on a college campus. You're usually busy hanging out with friends or working on some schoolwork. Then there are those 8 a.m. classes that everyone hates. So, fixing your sleep routine is always a necessity during winter break. But beware, if you want to be productive during your break, try not to wake up at 1 p.m everyday.

4. "Hey. I can't go out today. I'm busy binge-watching this show."

Winter break is your chance to catch up with as many shows as you want. That means you'll probably be in your room all day on Netflix. Your friends will understand why you haven't gone out in a while (your parents might be a bit concerned). During this break, I've watched about five television series in its' entirety. No shame whatsoever.

5. Spending as much time as you can seeing a few old friends.

We all have a certain group of friends who you've kept up with since high school graduation. There's a high chance that you all go to different colleges. But whenever winter break begins, you all start planning to hang out with each other and catch up on each other's lives.

6. "Oh great. I go back to campus next week."

Back-to-school blues starts to kick in the week before you head back to college. Back to papers, finals and bland college food. It's sad to see your winter break end, but it was fun just relaxing and forgetting about school for once.
