Fall Break Blog 4 & 5

My fall break started Thursday evening by me driving for the first time in two months.  It was a weird experience getting behind the wheel and driving for two hours especially considering the fact that my parents were always hesitant of me driving long distances.  When I got home that evening I could not wait to sleep in my own bed so I went straight upstairs and plopped down on my comfy queen sized bed I did not have to climb up a ladder to get into.  The next morning I woke up and headed to my aunts house where I was given some good ol' homestyle cookin'.  Then I had to relive the duty I had before I came to Purdue which was chauffeuring my brother home from school.  After that I met up with my mother to participate in my first presidential election.  The next day my brother had a soccer game which put them against the number nine ranked team in the state.  It was good to see all of the parents and team members I played soccer with last year.  It was also good to actually be able to sit on the bench with the team members rather than all of the adults who know who I am, but I have no clue who any of them are.  After that game I went back home to watch the Purdue football game but once I saw the score I changed it to University of Cincinnati game where I watched the Bearcats secure a victory.  Sunday morning I went to church for the first time in two months.  It was a strange feeling being awakened by my mother telling me to get ready for church.  After church I was able to sit back and watch football for the rest of the day which was also a first in two months.  Monday, my mother took me shopping to buy a suit and some warm clothes preparing me for the West Lafayette winter season.  Tuesday, my last day seemed like the longest of all my days on fall break.  I woke up early in the morning to go to the dentist office where I had to suffer through the teaching of a new hygienist.  Later that day I attended my brothers soccer game in which he scored the final goal giving Walnut Hills High School the Eastern Cincinnati Conference title.  After the game my father drove me back to Purdue where I arrived at midnight and had to wake up to attend a seven thirty recitation that Wednesday.
