Homecoming at my school took place from October 17th to the 24th. Having heard so much about homecoming and knowing that it brought out some of the hottest black celebrities to the DC area(Taraji P. Henson, Ludacris, Wale, Fabolous, The Clipse, Audio Push, Terence J from 106 & Park, Lance Gross from House of Payne, Pooch Hall from The Game, Omarion, Melyssa Ford, Essence Atkins, Amerie, Trey Songz, Drake and others) I couldn't help but being anxious for it to arrive. However I'm not going to lie. Although I had fun, I think it was over-hyped a bit. Maybe it was because I had tests during that time that took away from the festive atmosphere. All I can say is that I expected it to be more fun than it actually was. Overall, it was good and I had a lot of fun. Experiencing my first Yardfest was very fun and even though I didn't get up for the parade, the homecoming game...or shall I say the halftime show, was impressive. Hopefully in the subsequent years, the HU Bisons can actually win a homecoming game. Of the activities that I went to, I would have to say that the Step Show and the Poetry Cipher were off the hook! Sadly I had to sell my ticket to the Comedy Show because I had to study for a test that night. Here are some pics from during the week:
