Pros and Cons of Going Home For The First Time

Going home for the first time is always a bittersweet thing. Why would I want to leave UNH? But then again why wouldn’t I want to go home? I have to say it was a little weird being back in CT and not in NH. Here were the pros and cons of going home for the first time last week…..

Pros:

• Seeing family

• Seeing hometown besties

• A nice home cooked meal

• Sleeping in your own room 

• Driving around town

• Hometown coffee shops

• Doing your laundry without having to pay for it

• Everyone is really excited to see you

Cons:

• Missing college besties

• Sleeping schedule was so out of whack

• Did the same thing everyday (Idk about anyone else but there’s nothing really to do in my town)

• Your friends aren’t right down the hall

• Sometimes you have TOO much free time

• And finally I personally ended up eating too much McDonalds because that’s where my friends want to go at night

As much as I love being back at UNH I know there was a part of me that missed home. But I also feel like UNH is my home away from home.
