1. No class

Sleeping in until noon, sitting at home on the couch watching whole seasons of shows on Netflix, not stressing out about exams– need I say more? THIS is paradise.

2. Home-cooked meals

It’s almost as if you have never seen food that isn’t made in three minutes in the microwave. Is this how William and Kate live? 

3. Endless amounts of food

Your apartment’s near-empty pantry (bread and four boxes of mac-n-cheese) is quickly forgotten when you step foot in your parents’ home. 

 

4. Seeing high school friends

The groups you created with your friends in high school (with gang signs/handshakes and an acronym as your title) are all in town. 

5. Reuniting with family

It’s nice to be away from the fam for a while, but you really do miss them after a while. I mean, who else can handle your weirdness?

6. Leftovers

Thanksgiving on repeat.

7. Black Friday

Deals on deals on deals. Time to get your winter wardrobe!

Have a happy Thanksgiving, collegiettes!
