Shorter holidays are always slightly awkward for out of state college students. Being from Chicago, I am only given the chance to go home twice a year. My first homecoming is for Thanksgiving and the second is for Christmas. I don't know if it's a personal thing, but whenever shorter holidays come around I always feel a bit uneasy.
Will a friend invite me to come home with them? If so, is it out of pity or friendship?
Last year I went home with my friend Elizabeth to Baton Rouge, La. This year, however, my sister and I decided to just stay in Waco. Maybe a part of us wants to avoid the intrusive feeling we get from going to other people's houses. Maybe we just want to eat, watch movies, and sleep in our own home.
Whatever the reason, we will be living it up in the Wack this weekend. Come by the Pink Door House on Bagby if you're staying on campus too!
