Homesick.

It’s raining outside, I’m cold, and I miss home……

Just another casual night like other days and the feeling has never been so strong before this.

Homesick, the word itself has brought out so much feelings about missing home. The feeling was pretty mixed up. It was sweet, but also sad at the same time. Sweet is because of the flashbacks and memories back home makes you feel that your loved ones are around you, sad is because the only way you interact is through video calls, without any physical interactions. It makes you think about everything back home. Homesick does not mean you’re having a bad time abroad, it is just simply this little nostalgic feeling that you wished to keep for yourself and tell yourself that you miss home, that’s it.

However, on the bright side, I have learned to overcome the homesick on my own. It is just a temporary feeling that rushes into your mind at some point of time, as long as you don’t grieve in the feelings, think of the happy moments that you have with your friends who undergo the same thing as you, you shall be fine.

Despite all these never-ending homesick, I’m still glad that I have my second family in the UK.

My source of happiness in the UK – taken in front of Whitby Abbey.
My remedy to my homesick, my second family – taken in front of Buckingham Palace.

Thanks for making me feel like I’m home again ❤️
