Homecoming

This past week I didn’t get the chance to attend too many Homecoming events
due to my job and big assignments due in my classes. But out of all the events
during the week I was able to go to the Kick-Off Barbeque and the football game.
The day I went to the BBQ I wasn’t feeling too well, so instead of eating I
just tagged along with my friends. We stood in line waiting for our food. It
smelt quite good like the BBQ’s I remembered from back home, however I was
afraid to eat any with the fear that I might throw it all up afterwards. So as
my friends stood anxiously in line we listened to the band play for a little
bit, trying to find out friend that plays the trumpet, and watched the
cougarettes “dance”, which was basically them waving around their pom-poms
like at the football games. Once my friends finally got their food we found a
nice spot to sit down and eat. We talked and laughed and had a pretty good time,
minus my stomachaches. Deciding that I should probably go back to my dorm and lay down I left the group with
one other friend to get on the bus back home, where I took a very long and
relaxing nap. My football game experience was a better experience considering I
was no longer sick by this time (I think my nap helped out a lot.) Even though I
had to come late to the game because I was finishing up my shift at the
Creamery. But I was very excited because I had never been to a BYU football game
before because I always had to work during the games. Even though it was cold I
had a really good times with my friends who liked to yell the whole time. It was
a really fun experience that I won’t forget because not only was it the
Homecoming game but it was my first game.
