Today is the day that Mississippi State plays Alabama. Both teams are undefeated and this is quite possibly the biggest game that Mississippi State has played since I have been a student here. It is my senior year and I have been proud to be a Bulldog through the ups and downs throughout the years and this season is no different. But my pride in my school goes far beyond its football teams success. So, tonight we will go into Bryant Denny Stadium with our heads held high, and no matter the outcome, tomorrow my heart will still well with pride for my Dawgs. Hail State.
On a completely unrelated note, my visa papers are sent off, I now have a host family, and I just found out that there will be 10 people starting Chinese class the same time that I do. I have been so busy that I haven't been able to get excited about my trip through the tests, papers, and work. But as the days pass by, I am realizing how quickly that this month will pass by. This has been the fastest semester that I have ever had. Graduation is becoming very real and very scary because I don't know what will be next but I am trusting that God's perfect plans for my life will fall into place. As this football season ends, I am saddened by the thought that this is my last football season as a student and spending my Saturday nights standing in the student section and being showered with whiskey drinks when we score (ok, I won't miss that part). I look back on my time at State and know that I have had the best times of my life. My love for Mississippi State seems to increase everytime I walk onto that campus. God help me, I love this school. But my time here is not over yet. I still have one semester left. It will be filled with spending time with my roommates and best friends, runs through campus, and the best spring break ever (a cruise to the Carribean!!!). More on that later. Sorry for the sappy post.
