The transition from school to university has been so difficult for me.. I'm nearly done with my first semester but I'm still so homesick. I feel like I've lost total control of my life. I'm not looking forward to next semester and I just want to graduate as soon as possible. No one else seems to feel this way, my friends settled in within their first week and they're enjoying it so much. I feel like there's something wrong with me, I'm trying so hard to grow up and deal with it but I just can't help the way I feel.. Is this normal?

    I was like that the first quarter here at my college. You'll get better as time progresses... trust me. I sure did better. Just meet some great friends there, they'll make you feel better for sure.

    I'm at my 4th year of college and I feel great now... I would of felt terrible if I didn't keep pursuing my goals.

    Just don't worry so much... It's not the end of the world. Your family will still be there when you go home during breaks... it's not like they'll disappear on you.

    Sometimes university comes too soon for some people (it did for me). What I should have done was ask whether I could defer for a year and then gone out and got some work experience, do some travelling, and do some growing up. I didn't do that, and it ended badly.
