College is truly what you make of it. I’ve had the time of my life so far. I’ve met a ton of different people, gained a ton of interesting experiences and currently, I’m working on the most tedious assignment I’ve ever been assigned (I love challenges), but there are still some days where the longing to be home takes over. For the 10 weeks I’ve been at school, I’ve conjured up a list of things I found that college students miss the most while they’re away.
- Home cooked meals
Let’s be honest here, Chartwells doesn’t do any justice to mom’s homemade chicken noodle soup. I don’t know about you, but when I go home next, I’ll be stuffing my face with whatever is put in front of me. Bon Appetit!
2. Driving
Frick YASSS!!! NO MORE $25 UBER FEES!!!!
3. Bubble Baths
Rubber Ducky, you truly are the one.
4. Your own bed
Going home and sleeping in your own bed after sleeping in a lumpy extra-long twin is better than a free vacation to Bora Bora.
5. Dancing around in your underwear
I mean… who doesn’t?
6. Quiet Time
There are no more roommates, no more loud dorm parties on the floor underneath my room and no more doors slamming every 5 minutes. I’ll take every moment of silence I can get.
7. Singing your heart out
Because you can’t be Adele at college.
8. Family & Friends
They may just be a phone call away, but there’s nothing like being surrounded by the people who love you the most.
