Things We’ll Miss About UConn Over Winter Break

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Conn chapter.

Finals are over, and you’re finallyyy outta here! You’re so happy to go home, to be able to relax, to sleep until you can’t sleep anymore, and to eat as many home cooked meals as you possibly can. It isn’t until you do this for a few days that you realize you have nothing to do at home and there’s no one you want to see. And that’s when it strikes: you realize that you really do miss UConn because you miss…

1. Being with your friends 24/7

2. The freedom from your parents’ nagging

3. The freedom from your parents in general

4. Nickel

Because where else would you go out at 7 and be drunk by 9 for so cheap?

5. Getting to order Wings Over at ungodly hours…or just when you’re feeling lazy

6. Dairy Bar ice cream 

Other brands just aren’t the same…

7. Doing nothing and not feeling bad about it

Having classes and meetings normally makes us feel better about ourselves when we choose to have a Netflix binge, but after a month of doing nothing, we start to feel ~a little~ bad about it.

8. Telling yourself that you’d go to the gym, but never going

Walking to class every day counts as cardio right??

9. The beautiful winter scenery at UConn and Horsebarn Hill

Congrats on surviving the fall semester, collegiettes!

Happy Winter Break!
