I've been really homesick lately, so going home was great. I just didn't want to come back.
It feels like everything's changed, I think I just liked school my first year BECAUSE it was my first year and not because I like school or because I like being far away. I just want to be closer to home and now I have no choice, I don't want to transfer, especially now that I've realized how good the academics are here.

That *is* hard to be away from home when you miss it. College can be very lonely sometimes. So that's why you really liked your care package!
I think one way I reacted to college (and I was far from home, too) was to build my own new little "family" there. I was one of those people you may know who sets up home with a significant other, moving together into one or the other's dorm room. We become the "ol' married couple."
I hope your group of friends gives you a lot of emotional support. In retrospect, I wish I would have relied on a group of friends more than a few people. Because when your significant other and you go splitzo, you realize, "Damn! I really don't know many other people very well!" People whom you liked but didn't have much time to be with.
And then...poof! College is over, and everyone you cared about there is gone, and now you are homesick for
college.
