OK everyone, I am deeply sorry for leaving you in a sad state of affairs almost 2 weeks ago! That was just plain cruel! Excusez-moi, je suis carrément désolé. I am officially going home TOMORROW! Okay, so I'll be totally whipped from pulling an all-nighter the night before, jet-lag, the IB open house and all that jazz but I'll be home. I'll be petting Freya, drinking Starbucks, watching Grey's Anatomy, the whole deal. Today's lyrics are a classic and I think that everyone who reads this post should listen to the song once directly after, it's inspiring.
Well, if you haven't noticed, my spirits have noticably lifted. I'm cheery, of couse, I'm leaving in a little over 12 hourse and I haven't packed my suitcase. That should be fun, non? Last week, Jane called and while talking to her in English, I would add words in French here and there. Freaky eh?
I've met the requirements for all those coming home from France: I gave cookies to all my teachers, I bought presents for my hostfamily, I bought presents for friends back home, I've made a CD with French and English songs for the ride home from the airport, I've done it all.
Today was my last day of school so I said goodbye to everyone and they all pitched in and bought me a present. I'm excited about our all-nighter tonight!!
Well, if I don't write again before I leave, the next time I write, I'll be on Canadian soil! I miss you all, see you soon!
Love Emma

Err... I'm not absolutely sure, but I'm gonna go with "Circle of Life" by Elton John, from the soundtrack to The Lion King (a film I've never seen, but a soundtrack that I've heard dozens of times in the past, thanks to my musical-loving children). Really, I'm just trying to score another hug at the airport!
Ah, yes, the airport. I shall see you there in twenty-seven hours (twenty-one for you)! Until then: thank you for posting, enjoy your last hours in France, and have a safe, pleasant, and restful return to Canada!
Love,
The one, the only,

Sounds great Emma, I'm glad your last day at school was great!!! And that you have your Franglais cd and are pulling the standard all nighter.
Gros Bisous and see you Thursday!!!
Kisses and hugs,
Jane
Hey, you havn't posted for a while
:( I know the song this time: The Circle of Life, by Elton John(*sp) Any way, sorry that I can't come to the airport to pick you up. I wanted to, but I have to stay at school because we have class with Simmy, and were not allowed to miss it:( it's really annoying. I can't wait to see you again, I've missed you sooooooooooooo much, there are no words to discribe how much I've missed you. Can't wait tell tomorrow.
