To come back, or not to

I mean, during Christmas. Should I? I mean, it really sucked last year when I spent my first Christmas away from home, but perhaps this time round, I'll be more prepared for the emotional (or non-emotional, for that matter) side of it.

Pros of coming back:
See family
See friends
December there is fucking cold (but that's all the way to April too)
Can spend New Year's here too
No lonely 3 weeks of nothing to do
Retake driving test (but can take next June-October)

Cons of coming back:
Leaving Elvina there alone
Wasting accommodation money
Have to come back next year anyway for Jo's graduation
Might not be able to practise and pass driving test

I hate thinking lah.
