Hey Aggies and future Aggies. School is definitely in full swing; it seems like in all of my classes there are tons of homework assignments, projects and upcoming exams. Nevertheless, it's important to find a way to balance work with a little bit of fun. This weekend I had the great pleasure of being invited to hear a few of my friends in concert at the Kent Concert Hall here on the USU campus.

My cousin, my homie, my boy, my Aggie, former Mr. USU and USU Legend TJ Pratt invited me to hear him and several other talented singers from New York sing music for royal occasions. Although it was different and something I might not have typically done on my own, I had a great time being exposed to a different type of music; not to mention it's always good to see my friends do what they love to do.

Another great thing about going to USU is that there is ALWAYS something going on around campus. It's always a good experience to get yourself out there and try something you've never done before because you might just like it. During your time here at USU do it all, expose yourself to everything because you might just find your newest passion or hobby. Study hard and GO AGGIES!!!!

This past weekend was not only one of my most memorable experiences at USU, but a historical event as well. The Aggie football team defeated the Utes 27 - 20 in an exciting overtime win: definitely one of the best games I've seen at Romney Stadium.

The entire week leading to Friday's game, students were going crazy as rumors of a possible upset spread around campus. There was such a concern about students not being able to get tickets to the game that students camped out on the quad the night before to reserve their spots in the front row of the coveted and crazy USU student section.

I was lucky enough to enjoy the game with USU football legend Phil Olsen and his wife. It was amazing to not only be able to enjoy the game, but to sit there with a former player as he explained all the nuances of the Aggie's offensive strategy.

After the Aggies won and the students rushed the field to celebrate, I had the chance to go into the locker room with the team and celebrate the historic victory. It really made me proud to be an Aggie to see Coach Anderson come into the locker room with the winning game ball.
