Blogging on the RUN!!!

Hello my fellow eagles,



I feel like I’m neglecting you all and my duty to keep you up to date, but school has picked up and midterms grades and exams became a priority. SO let me fill you in on the past two weeks of my life. I went to the Aggie-Eagle Classic. Although we lost I cheered NCCU on and lost my voice. The game was so much fun and filled with excitement. As usual the NCCU Marching Sound Machine put on the show of a life time. The DOA “Death of Aggieland” added the special touch they needed to show out. And our football team fought long and hard. I was so proud to call myself an Eagle because we showed true spirit. Then dreadfully I caught the flu that has been going around so that put me out for a weekend. I can’t stress enough how Lysol is your best friend especially in college to keep you safe and germ free. Also make sure you receive a flu shot every year.


Then there are midterms. Even when you are passing and have a good grade its imperative that you study hard and make sure you do great on your midterm because it’s the determination of an A or a B or an D or a F. So as for my study plan I wrote words that I didn’t know three times along with key words to help me remember the words and their meanings. Another thing I tend to do with new words is write the annunciation of the word so I know how to pronounce it and write it correctly.


Along with all of that I have my numerous clubs that have taken up my time. First, with homecoming so close, Bon Vivant is taking a lot of my time. We practice every day for perfection as well as setup and prop completion. Then there’s book club….we have recently started reading the Steve Harvey book “Act like a Lady, Think like a Man”. The book is really great and I’m starting to learn some things about myself as a woman and ways to better myself. So that’s my spill, and until next time keep these words with you.

Family Weekend Part 1 (The Game)

We’ve recently finished our Family Weekend here at NCCU, and it was Exciting. The weekend started on Friday September 18th with the welcoming ceremony and varies activities for the parents and family members. Then Saturday there was breakfast with the #1 Eagle, Chancellor Nelms followed by a huge tailgate for our first home game. When Central Tailgates, We do it BIG! There was blowup slides and moon-walks for the children. Local Vendors with food were there including Fish Plates, Shrimp, Turkey Legs, Funnel cakes, and there was even a smoothie vendor that sold actual Pineapple drinks in the Pineapple. That was interesting to me. The Smoothies were good as well. The Pre-Game was the best! There was the Famous Eagle jumping around and hyping the crowd and dancing with the Team on the field warming up. There was the Marching Soul Machine blasting the soulful old school hits and pumping the crowd up. Plus it was just a good feeling to have everyone there supporting the Eagles… it was like one huge Family. The Game was Fun; everyone cheered and chanted for our football team. One of the most interesting parts were the 1st downs, every time the eagles got a first down the band would play a tune and the crowd would yell Eagle 1st down. I’m starting to find out the school traditions and I’m guessing that the 1st down chant is a tradition along with the N-C-C-UUUUUUUUUUUU tune that the band plays often to hype the crowd up. Although our mighty eagles fought hard, they lost 10-13 in double-overtime. Later that night was the talent showcase in which the students, family and faculty were able to showcase their talents in front of the student body.
