The Five Reasons You Become Homesick During the First Week of College (5)

1. Having To Make A Bunch Of New Friends

This is the real reason a vast majority of freshman miss their hometowns and pre-college lives. The people. People make places attractive because relationships with family and friends are the most important thing in life. So, being separated from those people who know and care for you so well can be difficult in the beginning. However, college is better than high school in that people are more open and accepting in general, leading to a little less badmouthing behind people’s backs. As long as you are yourself and make an effort to reach out to people, the right kind of friends will come your way. Guaranteed.
