red and blue.

i lost an entire aspect of my personality.

i love belmont university.

the year after i graduated, i went to every single basketball game. last year, i didn't go to as many, but i made an effort. this year i haven't gone to even one.

but tomorrow i'm going to the homecoming game. and i'm really excited about it. the last game i watched was the one against duke in the march madness game, but let's not relive that. (one point, it still hurts...)

ANYWAY.

last night i went to get my ticket, and i decided to stop by university ministries to see if the old ministers were still at work. one of them was! so we talked, blah blah. and she told me that there's this homecoming worship thing tomorrow, which actually sounds...awkward. but there will be some people there that i haven't seen in a long time, and i love me some reunion-ing.

the point:

i forgot what time she said, so i got on the homecoming website. and i realized i'm really lame for not participating in some parts of it. there was an alumni-only concert tonight. andy davis. andy davis. how could i be so foolish not to register for any homecoming events.

for some reason thinking about homecoming feels "lame" or something. but i'm past that now. next year...i'm going to be all over it. not just the basketball game, but the whole deal. i went to belmont university. i lived there for four years. there are so many reasons to be proud of that. my fellow alumni are amazing musicians. belmont hosted a presidential debate this year. the basketball team is suprisingly talented. we almost made it to round two of march madness last year...

i really should not get into that again.

but i'm excited about tomorrow. i'm not going to start chanting "go bruins!" or anything.

i think it would only be lame if i was still hanging out on campus or something. right? yes. i'm right. nobody thinks it's weird to go visit your family. i lived at belmont for four years of my life. it's a similar thing.

i went to belmont. and i'm sad that i forgot how much i love belmont, and how blessed i feel to have gone to college there.

i'm going to buy a new sweatshirt. i can always use more...

i'll save the explanation of my fashion choices for another post.
