Hey everyone, sorry this late. I was supposed to blog on the 8th for Laura's class but the rush of fall break kind of distracted me.
Is it just me? Is anyone else feeling home sick?
None of my friends really seem to be feeling it and I'm kind of confused. Did my parents shelter me too much and not give me enough freedom? Is that why I miss them so much? It seems like whenever I'm distracted or with friends I'm fine but as soon as I get on the phone with my parents or a friend from home I'm completely in tears. Going home this week didn't help. It seems like as soon as I got there I was leaving. I'm from Greenville (North Carolina) which is a 7 and a half hour drive so I can't just go home for a weekend if I want to. It's really hard since I've never been very far from home before. This made going home for fall break really important.
I hope yall had a good fall break and I'm really sorry it's late!!!!!!
Love Megan
This is me and my best friend from home, Kayla!!!!

MEGAN WE LOVE YOU!!! i do feel some homesickness, but since I am closer to home I can go home on a weekend!
It's Ok to feel homesick.
We all have our ways of handling it.
I'm sure you'll get better with it all in time.

Hi there Megan
The importance of family is something that can not be refuted. I am a first-year student at Rhodes University, South Africa, and man oh man do I miss home! (Which, by the way, is a sleepless 12 hour bus ride.)
For months I assumed that I was just being childish and that I was the only one feeling the way I did. But now that the end of the academic year is fast approaching, I am shocked to hear how many people are not coming back next year. They’ve opted for something closer to home.
So don’t feel alone in your longing for home. You’re not. And I think us not those of us newbies who want our mommys back that have the problem, but those who don’t.
Good luck from Sunny South Africa
