Friday Night Lights

High School football has become bigger and bigger over the years. Not only do we focus on the game but there's a lot more that goes into the game day preparation. I want to give you a run down of how my game day goes.

1. The day before:

- Get dressed up with themed clothes for the week.

- Your costume has to be on point! It's my senior year and I must go all out on every dress up day.

- GO BIG OR GO HOME.

Game day:

2. Pre-game football breakfast:

-The football team and cheerleaders all eat breakfast together at a local church who bless all of us with a wonderful meal.

- There is always a motivational speech by someone who gets everyone hyped for the game.

3. Pictures:

- We meet in the parking lot to take pictures in our costumes.

- This is where all the memories are made.

- Must have the best lighting for every picture.

- Post all pictures on any source of social media

4. Pep Rally:

- At the end of the day, we have a lit (fun) pep-rally. This is where we have a spirit line for the team and all types of relays and prizes.

- We have 45 minutes to get as turn't up (excited) as we possibly can before we go to the game.

5. GAME TIME:

- We get to the game hours early.

-The students have a tailgate including food, corn hole, loud music, and fun.

- The cheerleaders hang up spirit signs and get the crowd ready for the game.

- The boys pick a crazy slogan to paint on their chest.

-The student section fills up : seniors MUST be on the bottom, everyone else at the top. (This becomes an all out war, underclassman never wants to move)

- We cheer on the team to a victory or a loss

-We sing the alma mater with honor and pride and we wave our Austin flag in the air.

6. After the game:

- Dinner with all of my friends.

- Laughing and joking around at about eleven or twelve o'clock is the best part of the night.

7. Sleep:

- Have good night and rest.

- Get ready to do it all over again on the next Friday!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
