I'll spare you the flames about to eminate from me towards the rest of the staff at FESS, then (they don't apply to you, so just hide in a basement until I shake out the idiot that cost us two days in posts). XD
Essentially, the best thing to do about homesickness is to make your current home your "home". Don't give yourself an idle moment if you can help it! Find people to hang out with, activities to do (I'm guessing VT has places and programmes set up especially for incoming Freshmen), and basically, load yourself up until you become more comfortable with things. And remember, you're going to VT, which is RELATIVELY close to your actual home; on long weekends and vacations, it doesn't take much until you're back home. XD
