Down in Aggieland...

This past week I traveled up to College Station with my family to watch the Aggies take on the OSU Cowboys in some Big 12 football. We arrived in Conroe at about 3 or 4 on Friday. From there we went to Wings & More. I then went with my brother to CS to go to Midnight Yell. Midnight Yell is probably my favorite Aggie tradition, it is an amazing experience. After Yell Practice we traveled to Bryan to stay at one of his friend's houses. We woke up, watched college gameday, and fed a sick cat some Gatorade. We then went and ate at Fitzwilly's with my parents. After that we walked around CS and looked at Buildings, Statues, and Fountains. We went into the MSC and watched part of the Kansas St. and Kansas game on a large screen. We left there to go to a tailgate and from there we went to G. Rollie to pick up our Maroon Out Shirts. After that we went and watched the band and Players walk down the street. We also went to sponsor booths outside of Kyle and got some pretty cool, free stuff. Then we went to the Aggie Sports Museum. The museum was pretty cool. They had some stuff about some of my favorite players, like Dat and Bucky Richardson. They also had some Really old stuff like a playbook from our 1939 National Championship season. We then went back to the MSC and watched the second half of ou/tu game. After that we went on to Kyle. We got to our seats and sang Spirit of Aggieland, Texas, Our Texas, and The Star Spangled Banner. The game then started and some drunk jerk sat down beside me. He acted very inappropriately, definitely not like an Aggie is expected to act. The Ags were down 17 at halftime and I was feeling pretty bad about the game until the jerk got up and left and the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band formed at the north end of Kyle Field. The band made me smile and we won halftime, of course. The jerk never came back and the Ags made the largest second half comeback in Aggie history. I was very pleased in the outcome of the game.
My brother and I then went back to Conroe, ate breakfast from Whataburger, and then went to sleep. We cam back home early the next day.

When I was back home I found this thread on TexAgs about the guy I was sitting next to...
Thread about the jerk


Since my last blog post I have entered my Freshman year of High School. It pretty great so far. I have made it through a 6 weeks with pretty good grades and yesterday was the first day of the 2nd Six weeks.
Yesterday was pretty hectic. In English I discovered that we would be expected to read Romeo and Juliet, and I'm not too excited about that. I found out in World Geography that I was going to have draw a political and physical map of the United States, which isn't that big of a deal to me. And in spanish my teacher told me that we are going to write a 4 page story. These projects don't sound fun to me and I'm really not looking forward to doing them.
Today was not bad. I had a test in biology and I think i made a pretty solid grade, probaly an A. That was pretty much the only hard part of my school day.

Well, I'm off. It's past my bedtime. I will try to update my blog sometime soon so that Clinton will put me back on his bookmarks. ¡Adios amigos!
