I haven't written here in a long time. How can I make it a legit blog if I never write?

Unless you live under a rock, you know about Jasper Howard. All I know is that I will always remember these words from his post-game interview:

"Play every play like it's the last play you'll ever play." Jasper Howard.

Rest in peace. UConn Huskies, stay strong.

U-C-O-N-N


I don't think I can explain my excitement right now. I just got back from Trenton last night, where the Lady Huskies won the Elite 8, and are headed to St. Louis. Blue band is now headed for Detroit, to watch the UConn men take on Michigan State...
OMGGG.

Jersey was a lot of fun. And I love blue band so much. They're such good people, and fun to be around. We go nuts this time of year. And everybody wants the signs that are backstage at the arena. I'm not really sure where that started, but I'm jealous, not of the ones in this picture, but some of my friends have some really nice NCAA/UConn/Basketball signs and banners.
So, we witnessed the win, and had another dance party with the team. I don't if they realize how excited we get when we play that cheer. The first time we danced like that was last year, when they beat Rutgers in the Elite 8 in Greensboro. Now, I guess it's somewhat of a tradition...? for lack of a better word? Whatever it is, it's fun. They sure look like they're having a blast, and we are too.

I love school spirit. I really do, it's so much fun.


One more day of class, then 8 am call time on Friday morning. Asdasdfghjkl.

I really have nothing else to talk about. And that's okay. :-)

There's no stopping us




I really have nothing else to do...two updates in a row!

And, with a picture...live and in color...


One day this blog will be really something, pictures and links and fabulous things to talk about, but that's going to be after I get my head together. I have other things to worry about.

Like when I realized this morning I didn't tell one of my professors that I am going to miss our midterm.
Because I will be away for pep band.
And if he doesn't let me miss class and make it up...
I will cry.
No.
Seriously.
Big ugly tears.

Anyway.

UConn women pulled out another win tonight. And by pulled out, I mean steamrollered over Villanova. The game went by quickly, and then I joined my dad in the upper level seats to watch a few minutes of Pitt vs. UL. It was 25-24 when we left about halfway through the first half, but it wasn't that exciting. Kind of sloppy. Both bands sounded good though.

Championship game tomorrow night.

I will now proceed to stay up far too late, attempting to do everything that I wanted to get done this week, so I can enjoy Wednesday-Saturday with no school worries.

I wouldn't bank on it though.
