STOMP the YARD!

i wish i would have gotten pictures or a video for you all but you'll have to take my word for it...stomp the yard is not just a movie...it lives on through the jackson state campus! haha! today there was a "hot spot" on the plaza-which is the main walk way to get to classes-there was a dj and people were "steppin" all over the place! (our equivalent at UW is swing dancing in red square! haha!)
OH...and the first home football game (GO TIGERS!) is this saturday so the campus is husslin and busslin with school spirit! Actually, there is more anticipation to see the band at half time than the football game, haha, so that should be fun to see and experience!
Even in all the excitement tho today was a harder day than normal...i dont know why in particular but today i have just felt the pressure of my "job" here and the goals that i am trying to reach and when i think about that i feel that i am so far from where i want to be that i am feeling a little discouraged! I think overall there is just this feeling that i need to defend myself 24/7 and im just exhausted! which is why i miss home....i def miss each individual but also i miss feeling known and being able to let my guard down! SO that said...i would ask for your prayers! but i would also like to thank you...(it sucks that sometimes you have to be deprived of something to realize what you had...so know that i dont take your love and support for granted!)
