As graduates up and down the country say goodbye to their university town, lectures, exams, and that damp mould in the bathroom, it is a time of huge change for everyone.

If you’re lucky you’ll be moving on to bigger and better things, but for the vast majority of us, graduating requires moving home (at least for a couple of weeks).

Back to your childhood bedroom, your parent’s rules and most importantly, being judged for your Dominos pizza habit.... how will we ever cope?

These tweets perfectly sum up the angsty stages of moving back with your parents.
