Going Home...

Finally, Fall Break is near! True, I may only live twenty five to thirty minutes away, but nonetheless I feel like it's time for me to go home... and stay home. For at least a little while. I have enjoyed my time here SO much so far! I really have, but I miss my house. Sleeping in my own bed. Showering without shoes on. Now that it's Thursday, approximately 21 hours away from my departure (not that I'm counting), I feel antsy.. like I can't really sit still. I wanted to go ahead and write this blog now, because honestly, I plan on throwing all important brain cells out of my head the minute my car rolls off campus.

My mother came to Clinton this afternoon actually to visit me and take me to lunch. This is a somewhat normal occurence, but for some reason today, I felt like I really needed to see her. There is always a day during the week where I feel like I desperately need to see a member of my family, or go to church so I can feel some semblence of normalcy. My life has been turned upside down these past couple of weeks... and it's been great and fun!

But as I said it's time to head home. Eat some of my mama's good home cooking and finally see my little brother. He's a freshman in high school so obviously he knows everything! But as obnoxious he may be, I've missed him. I get to talk to my mama and my daddy almost everday, but if I do talk to my brother this is how the conversation goes:

"Hey Eric!!! How are You!!!!"- Stephanie
"Good."- Eric
"How was your day?"
"Good."
"Ok well I'll just talk to you later then... Love you!"
"Bye."

As entertaining as that is, I miss him. And I can't wait to go home! :)

I feel the same way about sleeping in my own bed and being able to shower without shoes on. I especailly loved the home cooking that i've been longing for.
