Replying to Being Homesick
alright so I'm a freshman in college, been here just about a month. I've met some really awesome people and I'm having the time of my life. Getting to college made me realize that the people I hung out with in Highschool were just immature, petty, and mean. I really don't miss them all that much.
I don't really miss my family all that much. My parents got divorced when I was young so I'm used to going long stretches without seeing a parent or sibling.
However, the other night, I was stargazing with some of my friends, and something hit me: Stargazing in a city is fucking WEAK. I kept on remembering stargazing at my house in upstate New York and being able to see EVERYTHING. The milky way, every miniscule light that shone down, satellites, shooting stars etc. It got me thinking how I always took that for granted. Another thing I really miss are the mountains. I go to school in Central New York and it is COMPLETELY flat here. I miss being surrounded by hills.
So college NS population, do you miss home?
