So, it was until recently that I was all for staying at home freshman year. I thought that it would be a real hassle to be away from my family all of the time because we do so much together and I knew living at home would save my parents money that I always feel guilty about when I make them spend it.
Now I'm completely regretting my decision. Because I'm staying at home, I feel like I'm missing out on making a lot of new friends and being able to experience living on my own (in a sense) and just the feeling of really being a college student.
At home, I feel like I'm bored all of the time and I know I can't call half of my friends because they are all like an hour away, and another good portion are either working or living it up on campus. Most of the time I feel pretty worthless because I haven't even been able to get a job to at least help my parents pay for my tuition while my sister is paying for all of her's out of her own pocket.
I just want to feel like I'm ready when I have to sever my ties to home.

I don't think there is a good solution. I'm here and I still feel like I'm missing out on making new friends. And if I could, I'd be home in a second.
Just thought I'd share with you that it's not as glamorous as some people might make it out to be.
