Feeling Homesick

After you are adjusted to a new space and time has gone by there comes a time where you hear something or see something that reminds you of home. Feelings emerge on missing home and feeling homesick. Just imagine have those times when you can't really do much about it except for wait for time to go by, especially if reaching home means an entire day of travel. To feel closer you either spend some time looking through pictures or going online to talk to friends back home. The best feeling anyone can get is getting messages of "I miss you" or "when are you coming home?"

It's amazing how simple words can make your day better, but that goes for anyone, anywhere, anytime. Having friends to go back to and knowing there is someone that can be considered a true friend. There is always a special video, a special picture that makes the day better when missing home, yet sometimes this can bring more feelings of being homesick. In my opinion the best way to pass time is to keep busy. Start by going to sporting events or music concerts, they are always fun to go to with a a group a friends.

Keeping busy in school, at work and by joining organizations are good ways to go. Something that works is not even thinking about time. Everyone complains about the amount of work each class requires, but in the end keeping busy is actually a good thing. It is harder with longer periods of time but the less you think about time the faster time actually goes by. Before you know it going home will only be a week’s time away versus months and months away.
