Everyone knows that you need an escape now and then. I just had mine this weekend. I went home for the first time in a month. I love going home. Maybe I love it so much because I don't get to do it that often. With my busy schedule in crew, practicing 6 days a week, I don't get away too much.
This past weekend, my parents were kind enough to come get me (1 hr. and 20 min. drive) on Saturday morning after practice. I only got to spend one night in my own bed and shower without sandals on once, but it was so worth the trip. We hung out and relaxed, and for a minute, I forgot about school. Sometimes, you just need an escape.
I know that in high school, you just can't wait to get out of the house and on your own. But, believe me, once you're in college, home isn't such a bad place. You see your family (whom you realize you miss more than you want to admit), you get a home-cooked meal, and you get off campus- it's great. Trust me...you will appreciate going home. Relish your escape.
