Homecoming 2010

Homecoming was amazing. Beyond words, almost. This weekend was packed full of friends, family, excitement and entertainment. I was so impressed by all the Freshman talent that was showcased at Frosh Frolics and the bonfire was one of the most legit fire-related things I've ever been to. I'd never seen a fire quite so big in my entire life. I could feel the heat no matter where I stood. The fireworks were also super awesome.

The parade was also super exciting! I'd been in the Concordia Homecoming parade before with my high school's marching band but throwing candy was a lot more fun than playing drums, not gonna lie. 

The game was also fun, even though we lost. The final score was 14 - 38 but honestly, I had a great time just being surrounded by my friends and family, I wasn't too heartbroken over the loss (plus, I don't think my high school won a homecoming game all 4 years I went there, so I'm used to it). The Johnny Holms dance was also super fun, even though I didn't stay too long.

Honestly, even with all the jollification around me, the most exciting part of the weekend was to see my family. My cousin went to Concordia and graduated this past spring, so I'm not really used to her not being around quite yet. It was really nice to get to see her again.

All in all, I enjoyed every single minute of this past weekend (aside from Fjelstad's fire alarm going off at 3 am Sunday morning). Everything I expirience just reinforces the thought that I really do indeed belong here.
