Warm Fuzziageness

I got so weirdly homesick last night - literally, to sitting in bed sobbing 'I want my Mummy'.... so strange! I never get homesick, not even when I went to Guide camp or PGL aged 11, when everyone else did. But maybe it's just because I've decided not to live at home over the summer, and I was remembering all the small things I missed, and I realised that it's never going to be quite like that, ever again. But everyone has to move on, and I know that this is what I want to do. It's just slightly scary, that I am well and truly no longer a child, and pretty soon, no longer dependant at all. Woah. I am going to be very nice to my parents when I see them at the weekend :)

It happens, love, and it'll probably happen again. I'm 25 years old and haven't lived at home for almost six years, but now and then, I still have "I want my Mummmyyyyyy!" moments, and I've been crying when my plane landed at hometown on occasion.

Best advice I can give is to keep finding new things to love about where you currently are. It hurts anytime you leave a familiar situation, but the older you get, the more you find yourself able to take yourself for visits.

Thanks Jocelyn, I appreciate the advice :) Glad to know I'm not the only one. It's definitely not difficult to find new things to love about London! Guess I've just been having a stressful week, really.
