You can sleep forever, eat all the food, and catch up on all the Netflix you missed (jk, you haven&#8217;t missed any Netflix. You&#8217;ve been watching Netflix 4 hours a day). Basically, it&#8217;s all fun and games\u2014until you start missing your dorm roomies. Sure, <a href=\"http:\/\/community.sparknotes.com\/2016\/03\/28\/how-would-you-deal-with-your-terrible-roommate-a-choose-your-own-adventure-story\" target=\"_blank\">they might be a bit of a nightmare, \u00a0<\/a>but they also happen to be quirky, wonderful weirdos who \u00a0you&#8217;ve grown to like over the course of the school year. If you find yourself missing their presence over spring break, consider sending one of the following texts:<\/p>\n<p>1. I actually miss those excruciatingly off-pitch renditions of Justin Bieber songs that you usually belt out when I&#8217;m trying to study.<\/p>\n<p>2. I couldn&#8217;t sleep last night because your fan wasn&#8217;t blowing frigid air directly at  \u00a0my face \u00a0and drying out my eyeballs.<\/p>\n<p>3. Believe it or not, I kinda wish you would magically appear in my house \u00a0and eat all my snacks without asking, then refuse to buy me replacement snacks. That&#8217;s, like, our special thing.<\/p>\n<p>4. My eyes need to readjust to an environment that is not completely covered by half-eaten containers \u00a0Ramen. \u00a0I&#8217;m not handling the transition well, brah.<\/p>\n<p>5. Remember when I told you to stop playing your clarinet in the middle of the night? Yeah, I take that back<\/p>\n<p>6. I \u00a0yearn to hear the sound of you mouth-breathing while you crunch potato chips.<\/p>\n<p>7. I haven&#8217;t tripped on your longboard in a whole week. \u00a0My shins feel uncomfortably un-bruised.<\/p>\n<p>8. I hate to admit it, but I laugh on the inside when you interrupt my weekly phone call with my parents by shouting stuff like &#8220;OH MY GOD, THAT IS A GIANT PENIS BALLOON!&#8221; and &#8220;GENIUS IDEA: \u00a0LET&#8217;S GO SLED OFF THE ROOF OF THE SCIENCE BUILDING!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>9. \u00a0I never thought I&#8217;d say this, but I miss your tornado-siren of a phone alarm going off at all hours of the night and day, but especially at 3 AM, right when I&#8217;ve finally fallen \u00a0into a peaceful slumber.<\/p>\n<p>10. Dude, it&#8217;s been so weird not hearing you and your SO squeak on your bed all night. The sound was strangely comforting. JK, I NEVER WANT TO HEAR IT AGAIN AND JASON IS FORTHWITH BANNED FROM OUR ROOM.<\/p>\n<p><em>Do you get along with your roomies, or are they <a href=\"http:\/\/community.sparknotes.com\/2016\/03\/28\/how-would-you-deal-with-your-terrible-roommate-a-choose-your-own-adventure-story\" target=\"_blank\">ACTUAL MONSTERS<\/a>?
