7 Things College Students Look Forward to Over Break

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

1.  Showering without shoes

All of a sudden there is no common bathroom anymore!  No shower shoes!  No random hair in the shower!  The bathroom has never looked so beautiful.

2. Pets

You don’t know who is more excited, you or your pets.  It is the happiest you have felt in a while.

3. Good Food

No more dining hall food!  You get to eat all of your favorites and they taste even better than you remember.  Food has never tasted so good.

4. Your bed

There is nothing quite like sleeping in your own bed, and being able to do it for a couple days in a row is the absolute best.

5. No alarm clock!!!!!!!

For the first time in weeks, you don’t have to set an alarm and can sleep in late.

6. Free time

You can binge watch all of the shows that you are behind on or just sit there and do absolutely nothing if you want to and it is absolutely wonderful.

7. FAMILY!!!!

Whether you have seen your family this semester or not, it is always appreciated to be able to spend time with people who know you and love you.

 

Have a great break everyone!
