The anticipation is building.

Anticipation for getting back to school on Sunday and finally seeing some friends, the friends that are more like family to me at this point.

Anticipation for simply finally getting the heck out of this house.

Anticipation for the start of new classes, a full load, lots of work to fill my time.

Anticipation for all the plans Louis and I have for the College Democrats this fall, all of the events we're planning, the CDA convention, Obama's acceptance speech, the election, surprising the heck out of the Republicans, all of it.

Anticipation for all of the plans I have outside of school and the CDs.

Anticipation for getting back to the place that is my home.

Tomorrow is a full day of shopping to stock up on food and various other supplies.  Saturday is laundry, enjoying my last day of vacation, and packing.  Then, Sunday, we're off.  And honestly, I cannot wait.



Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

May be surrounded by
A million people, I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
"I'm fine, baby. How are you?"
Well, I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky, I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I've got to go home

Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
'Cause this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day
Has come and gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I'm surrounded by
A million people I 
Still feel all alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home

Let me go home
It will all be all right
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home
