Good week, but an interesting weekend

I did not have a single test this week, which was nice. It was also our rest week for Track & Field so I did not have practice on Wednesday or Saturday. I also meet with my academic coordinator to get a feel for what classes I will be taking in the spring and when exactly I will be taking them. Halloween was on Friday and a lot of people were excited about it, though I didn't really care too much for it. There were a number of things going on that night, but I went to the BCM's Halloween party and played some games for a little while then went back my room. Everyone was dressed up and my roommate went as Michael Jackson so I wasn’t sure if should be concerned or not being his roommate in all, ha-ha.

   I ended up leaving pretty early because I had habitat for humanity the next morning. My brother also had a football game that night and if they won they would go on to the championship, I received a text late that night that they had won, which was exciting. I then immediately bought my plane ticket for Friday so I am pumped about the game and going home to see my family. I woke up at about 6:30 for H4H and we left at about 7:00 to go to the site. One of my good friends, Stephen K., was working on the site with me so we had a good time working together on the house. I met some new people that were in our group as well. There was also this eight-year-old kid named Corey who was pretty cool and he made us all laugh a lot. We ended up finishing around 3:00 so I went back to my room to take a nap. That night was also the Texas-Texas Tech game so I woke up at around 6 to grab dinner before the game. The game was amazing and though Texas had not performed as well as they should have in the first half, I knew they would put it together in the second half, which they did. Anyways-long story short, the 4th quarter Texas is up by 1 and Tech has the ball with about 1:38 left in the game. The last three plays of the game were insane: 1st the ball is tipped in the air off the Tech receiver and it seem as if the Texas Safety has intercepted the ball to end the game, which at this point I was going crazy. However, the ball went through his legs and hits the ground making it an incomplete pass. The 2nd play the Tech QB throws it the wide receiver at about the 10 yard line right on the sideline and he manages to stay inbounds to score the touchdown. Unbelievable! The 3rd play Tech has to kickoff from its own end zone, but it didn't really matter because they intercepted the Texas lateral. It was a well-played football game and it definitely had my heart racing the whole time. Immediately after the game I went straight to bed. I didn't even want to think about what just happened, ha-ha. The next morning I met Stephen to go to his Church, which I had never been before. I enjoyed it and we all went to lunch afterwards, which was fun. Overall, this weekend was strange but it was without doubt good one.
