10 Reasons to Visit Home

Check out 10-6 at www.asuherald.com

5.
The Town: If you are anything like me, there issomehow a sweet comfort in returning to that place that you know like the back of your hand. The shops, the park, the food joints, the movies, and even the High School is fun to go back and visit. It's just cool to be back in that familiar air again.
4. No Pressure: Oh, this one is the best. Going home means a break from reality. No school, no class, no fellow students, no college buzz, no pressure! It is so relaxing to be able to go back and plop down on the couch with a non-school-related book and chill out while munching on that favorite snack mom always makes. If you ask me, it is needed every now and then. Just go home, chill out, have fun, and enjoy!

3. Be a kid again: Do you ever find yourself acting ten years younger when you go home? This is especially a problem for the baby of the family. You go home and it's just when you were a kid again. Of course, it doesn't help that mom waits on you hand and foot and you have no responsibilities. But that isn't necessarily a bad thing! I think it is ok to go home an be a kid again from time to time.

2. Money: Or should I say lack there of? Usually, going home means not having to worry about finances for a couple of days. Parents love to help out their kids. Coming home means they take you to dinner and pick up a few things you need while their at Walmart. It is really appreciated after a semester of scraping for change.

1. Love: Yes, I know it is mushy, but it's true. How nice is it to go home to be in a place where you are loved. Even if it is just for a little while, and bickering may happen, but feeling all the love of friends, family, animals and just the cozy comfort of home is simply a great feeling. You have to love it.
