I am being emotional

I have been in Australia for two or three months, during this time. I felt myself doing nothing but wasting my time. I always heard that people who studied abroad feel sad, blue or homesick, I just never imagined the feelings would be so strong! I know I should study hard to improve myself, but I guess inside of me, I am just being lazy. I just have to say, I miss my family!

Hello Fei Meng,

It is normal to feel out of sorts when you are in a strange place on your own. Are there any other Chinese people you could meet up with from time to time? The best way to overcome homesickness is to keep yourself busy, make an effort to go out, to study or take up some sports/activities. This way you can push the negative feelings away. And remember to smile, even if you don't feel like it at first.

All the best

Bob
