So I am a freshman in my first semester of college. So far I have enjoyed myself at school, my classes are going well & I have a group of friends I hang out with. But for some reason I constantly find myself crying and emotional. At first I thought it was just the emotions that come along with adjusting to a new environment, but it’s been going on for too long.
I only live twenty minutes from my house, but I live in the dorms. I occasionally come home on the weekends, and every time I do I find myself crying uncontrollably Sunday night when it is time to go back.
I have not had any major problems with classes, roommates, or anything else…I just seem to hate it. I think I am realizing that I would rather be home than on campus.
Lately I have being considering moving home and commuting to school, since it only takes me twenty minutes anyway. I think that is better this way because I can still hang out with my friends, I could also stay on campus if I wanted, but I wouldn’t be so sad and emotional all the time since I’m back at home.
Is moving home the wrong decision? I have given this a lot of thought and I don’t know if I am still just trying to take the easy way out…? I honestly don’t have a clear cut explanation for why I hate living at school, I just do. And I am so much happier and content when I am at home, am I making the right choice to move home?
