Answer 4

?? I lay on my bed, watch tv,just relax.

Answer 5

I play my home songs, watch the videos and invite friends for my home food. Then it is relaxing. It is not practical to pack and leave because you will do it every month.

Answer 6

Depends on the situation but when I'm homesick I remind myself why I'm away from home and the positives it brings. Another thing you can do is write a letter, don't even have to send it but it will feel like you're at home talking to those whom you love.

Try Yahoo Chat maybe? Bebo/facebook?

Answer 7

I phone my relatives and friends on Google Talk and just enjoy catching up again. I also remind myself of all the positive aspects of my life and of living in a new country. It also makes it easier if you have someone to talk to who understands or are in the same situation.

Answer 8

When I was younger, I used to always call my parents to pick me up at midnight from my friend's sleepovers. I now have a couple cures for homesickness. I normally snuggle up to my pillow from home in my favorite pajamas and chow down on my most usual munchies while glancing through pictures from home. I also try to keep my self busy. Go out and have fun! Remember to stay in touch with friends and family - text message, phone call, email, and even letters! Don't keep your emotions bottled up; talk to someone where you are. He or she will most likely comfort you and maybe make you feel a little closer to home. I hope you start feeling less homesick. I really do. Why? So you don't miss out on all those adventures waiting from you!

Answer 9

Shame Nay, are you missing "Die Baai"? You are not missing much here. It is freezing cold, raining and an ice cold wind is blowing, PE is freezing and miserable. When I used to get home sick, I use to phone my mother and cry my eyes out, felt a bit better afterwards. Otherwise be busy, make some nice curry for the cold, drink a glass of wine and get a DVD, or if you do not want to stay in, go and visit some friends, just keep your thoughts busy by doing something else.

Answer 10

Nay go and have a good night with friends. It has worked for me in the passed.
