Homecoming!

Today is the start of homecoming festivities and I’m beyond excited! Being a Freshman is so awesome because all of this is brand new to me. At my old high school, homecoming was fun, but it wasn’t as big a thing as it is here. We had the game, the dance, and the parade that we shared with MSUM, but that was it. There was some pride and some excitement but it’s nothing like what I’ve seen here so far. There’s so much going on and I can’t wait for it all to happen. Tonight is Frosh Frolics and the bonfire. Two of my favorite things: talent and fire. I’m also super excited for the parade, because I get to walk with Circle K. Plus, I get to throw candy, and who doesn’t like to do that?

I can’t believe how fast Concordia became “home” for me. This is exactly where I want to be. Some of the best people I’ve ever met reside or work on this campus. I’m proud to be a Cobber! Not only because of how awesome it is, but because it’s practically a family tradition. My grandparents went here, and then worked here, my mom and all her siblings went here and a few of my cousins did too. I love being able to share this with my family. Maroon and gold is where it’s at.
