On Saturday, I went to my first college football game! I was super excited, because the spirit here at my school is unmatched. On the day of the game, I woke up relatively early and got all of my laundry done for the day – when I’m in an anticipatory or excited mood, I can’t sit still and have to occupy myself with something!

Around 2 PM, I met up with my friend Celine to get ready for the game. After that, we walked around for a little bit and met up with our friend to tailgate. We ate burgers and hot dogs and shared stories under the sun while we waited for the game to begin. It was a hot day, but the air was full of school spirit.

The stadium itself was packed – I was able to introduce myself to the people around me and make some new friends, which I was grateful for. The game was a complete shutout – we scored on almost every possession, and the stadium roared every single time.

After the game, we celebrated our win after I completed the rest of my homework. I was so exhausted from all of the excitement that I ended up sleeping until 2PM the next day!

I can’t wait for this weekend’s game!
