Go Team...and all that


The game was fun. UNR beat Northwestern-which is apparently a big win for them since Northwestern is a Big Ten school (and should have been able to tromp the little ole' Wolfpack). I was torn as to who to cheer for - Northwestern being an Illinois school and all. I really have no emotional attachment to the Wolfpack. But alas, I then realized that I have to attachment to Northwestern, either. So being a good Nevadan now, I decided to root for the Wolfpack.

However, I'm not a big "cheerer." I never have been. I have always had zero school spirit. Maybe if I knew someone playing it would be different...

I was excited about seeing the band play during the game and at half-time. I was to be sorely disappointed. They stunk. The band was small, the marching was plain, and they were using music! Hello...you are in a college band...MEMORIZE YOUR MUSIC! Then, to add insult to injury when they were finished with half-time they didn't even march out of the stadium. Once they hit the track they just walked out. UM HELLO?? These people seriously need my help. It does not want to make me take any classes in their music program, that's for sure!

The stinky band did not ruin the whole night however! My first college game was a ton of fun - probably more to do with the company seeing as I had no idea what was going on on the field :)

Go Wolfpack!


I'm going to my first college football game tonight. Today is Mark's birthday - and he is a college football nut - so to celebrate this auspicious occasion we are going to go watch the Nevada Wolfpack play Northwestern University. Mark tells me it is going to be a good game, but knowing nothing about football I'll just have to take his word for it! I'll try and post some pictures of my outing later.

Ah, the Nostalgia

I purchased something the other day I haven't had since high school: Watermelon bubble gum. No, it wasn't Bubblicious...it was Extra. But still good...
