What A Legacy

It is with sadness that I say, today we, the body of Penn State, have lost someone very dear to us.

Just almost half past 9 o'clock this morning, Joseph 'Joe' Vincent Paterno, fondly known as JoePa to many, passed away. He was admitted recently to Mount Nittany Hospital due to complications of lung cancer. It was just shortly after his rude dismissal from his position as Penn State Football's Head Coach, that he was diagnosed.


Rest In Peace to Penn State's Father & Grandfather, Joe Paterno.

No one can ever replace him. What he has done for my school is on end, 60 years+ dedicated to Penn State and its football program, yet he had to go out in a sad fashion. The most winning football coach in history. We'll remember you forever, Joe!


I'm sure that JoePa LIVED for Penn State. What he did for this school: the library, grants and scholarships. Not to mention the hundreds of young men he raised and touched through the Nittany Lion football program. And for him to be plucked out of this university the way he was, it must have put him in a state of sadness. Regardless of the lung cancer, he had to have died of a broken heart.


WE ARE!

Forget that he wasn't perfect [concerning the Sandusky scandal], this man was singlehandedly PENN STATE.

May 14, 2011 Recap

SO Penn State had spring commencements two weekends ago! Proud to say that some of my friends graduated and walked! Me, not this semester, if even this year. I was on the path set to graduate in December, but things didn't go well, and looks like I will be graduating with the Class of 2012 *insert tears here* It makes me really sad and disappointed with myself. Had I not chosen this wonderful major called French - Business Option, who knows, I may have just graduated one week ago!

On a happier note, here's me with my friend since fresh year, Shavon!


I truly do wish her the best of luck!

Homecoming!

So, It's Homecoming Week at my school, the ever so great, Penn State University!

Now it's bout to get real crazy in this b*ch as soon  a hump day [Wednesday] is over! Lol

I was waiting for the bus this evening, coming from my accounting exam X-( , when a groups of kids starting coming around looking for someone with red hair, or who could fake a punch at them. Haha, apparently they were on a treasure hunt or something, and I later learned that they were morale for THON! Sounded like some fun haha. Some guy said they were a bunch of freshman, I bet.

Then when I got on the bus, a bunch of girls were all dressed up colorfully, one had butterfly wings, one had a bathing suit bottom on top of like hot pink biker shorts and bright green tights, yikes! They were also on their way to a social, as one of the new sorority pledge classes. Made me wished I pledged, they are forever having tons of fun!

But yeah, I'm on the Homecoming Parade Committee, so be sure, if you're in State College this weekend to come down and watch the parade! Also go to the pep rally too for the coronation of the Homecoming King & Queen! And try to hit the game Saturday, Us v. Illionois's Fighting Illini!


For The Glory
