After my last blog post I've been thinking a lot about commuting to university. I really haven't been enjoying living away from home. I'm such a homey person and always have been. Literally every morning I wake up and just wish I was at home.
I've tried everything to make myself feel better like going to society stuff, going to all my lectures and making friends on my course and hanging out with my flat mates. I just feel like I need to be at home, I've eaten one meal since I've been at uni because I feel so sad being away from home. Everyone thinks that I am just homesick but I don't think that that is the case, I know what it feels like to be homesick and I just don't think this is the case.
My university is only 55 minutes on the train away from me and then a maximum 20 minute walk to the campus so all together an 1 hour 15 minutes. That really isn't bad to commute to uni considering that I only have to be in 3 days a week. I'm about to give it a go in the coming weeks to see if it's doable and whether I feel any happier so I'll keep you updated. Although I am worried that I'll miss out on the 'uni' life, I really am not the type of person that goes out clubbing and stuff anyway. I just wanted to post this to say to the younger people, don't feel like you HAVE to stay in halls if you know you're going to be unhappy.
