Title: O/T To anyone who ever went to University
Post by: Mr F on December 23, 2006, 09:39:33 PM
So I'm back "home" for Christmas from Uni.  I've been back since thursday and already and I fell like I want to be back in Swansea.  Was anybody else like this or am is this just some sort of university blues thing that i need to get over?

I was like it too

Most of my friends would high tail it back home (with piles of washing!) twice a term but I wanted to stay

Proably cos things weren't great for me at home, but I loved being at University, had a whale of a time

I was like that when I was at university, but that might have been because it was such a good one - Cardiff :D

We don't hate Cardiiff as much as we do Swansea Uni, being just the institute and all.

Depends where "home" is. If it's Romford or Luton then it's entirely understandable  ;hide;

Not you personally btw - you know what I mean!  I hope.

I had it both ways mate. When I got back to Uni I missed home a lot too. You do get used to it though.

We never had Uni in my days, unless you were well posh.

We had Secondary Modern Schools, whatever "Secondary Modern" meant.

Oxford University wasn't founded until the 12th Century, so this is believable :D

If you feel like that just for xmas break, wait until you will graduate... the true  depression will kick in.   ;)

i had fun when i went home, but I had a lot of friends away from University. Maybe if you were friendless before you went away, it might be different
