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 Cheesy

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

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.
