If you're a college student you probably just finished midterms and are longing for Thanksgiving break.
It's that time of the year where all you want to do is go home, hug your mom and have an amazing home cooked meal. so while being in the in-between stages of stress and home-sickness we are feeling all the feels.
Some people feel better being in constant contact with their family when they are feeling homesick and some people choose to invest there time and thoughts into things that will distract them from missing home, so whichever type you are, try these things when you're missing home.
1. Facetime with your Fam
Seeing your favorite people at home makes you start counting down the days until you get to go home, but at the same time it gives you a sense of comfort when you're feeling upset.
2. Text your friends from home
Nothing compares to having a conversation with your friends from home, no one understands you like they do so this always is my go to.
3. Eat comfort food
YAS. Go to your favorite restaurant in your college town and TREAT YO SELF.
4. Retail therapy
This is my muse. When I need a touch of home I go to the mall head to my favorite store and once again TREAT YO SELF.
5. Go to the gym
I am not into this but I know a lot of my friends like to focus their minds on other things like going to the gym.
6. Hang out with your roommates
You and your roommates are probably all feeling the same way, so go out with each other, talk, cry make each other feel better as best you can.
7. Go to the beach (southern college students only.. sorry northerners)
Living in Florida has its perks, taking a trip to the beach really helps you remember how cold it's going to be when you go home and reverses that homesickness real quick.
