This whole week was, to me, a success. I enjoyed every minute of it.
My week started with the biggest praise party that I've ever witnessed, the Gospel Show. It was so fun being able to worship and fellowship with my peers and their families. Each artist came out and lifted our spirits. When Shirley Ceasar and her crew got on stage, she made the crowd go wild! I left that show feeling uplifted.
On Monday, I went to the comedy show. It was a good show! The comedians were so much fun to watch and each one had me laughing so hard. Me and my friends left with so many jokes (some of which I won't mention on this blog) that we still talk about.
Tuesday, I went to the Poetry Cipher at Lincoln Theater. One word: Incredible!! The students and the celebrities had good poetry! My favorite poet was Queen God Is. She had such conviction in her poetry. Everyone in the audience was captured by her presence and her enlightening words. Then Talib Kweli came out and brought the house down! It was such a good show that I went home and wrote some poetry too (lol).
Yard Fest was Friday (I didn't go to any of the other events between Wednesday and Friday) and it was great! I didn't realize that it was going to be as big of a deal as it was. I saw so many Howard Alumni all in their HU and Greek paraphernalia. It was so exciting seeing everybody on the Yard at my school! There was so much school spirit and everyone had such a good time comming together young and old to celebrate Howard University and its legacy.
The R&B show was also that night. That concert was so much fun! It was like the biggest 90's party. Avant, Tyrise, Joe, and Monica brought the house down!
My first Homecoming was certainly an experience that I will treasure and Howard winning the game was the icing on the cake. Over All this weekend was so great!
