Bearcat Mania, Still Runnin' Wild!

And A Good Tuesday Morning to All-A-Y’all!

Well, let me just go ahead and apoplogize for not posting a blog on yesterday, as I was some kinda busy all day yesterday. Notwithstanding that yesterday was Veterans Day (and I did all my Cousin Keith and talk to him for about a good hour or so), I also took advantage of the opportunity to pre-register for the second semester here in Bearcat Country… oh, I’m seriously responsible when it comes to my academic career! All this money that my mom and dad have put into my education to attend Rust College—I’ll be damned before I give any inclination that it’s all in vain.

Well, y’all, I’ve got to say it one mo’ ginn: Rust College showed up and showed out this past weekend! Founders Day Weekend was off the heezy fo sheezy, my breezy… hahaha! As always, I want to congratulate Miss Rust 2013-14 for a beautiful coronation—and for you fellas out there, she was glamorously beautiful (Yes, I’m talking more and more like my Grampa Clark, but that’s how gorgeous she was). And of course, I broke the news this past Friday that I will be running for Miss Rust 2015-16. I figure that I’ve got just as good a shot as any other gal up here, so why not throw my name in the ring!

And the rest of the Founders Day weekend was just as tremendous. This is my second homecoming that I have attended, but it seems that the Bearcats outdo themselves every year. And my goodness—all the alumni that showed up and showed out… it was like a big ol’ party. Speaking of alumni, I got to hang out with My Auntie Gladys again, but this time, Ruby and Theo tagged along with me. One of these days—hopefully before the end of the year—I’ll post a picture of me, Ruby, Theo, and Auntie Gladys just chillin’ in Bearcat Country. And check this out, y’all: Just to rub it in, Auntie Gladys sent a mass text message to Gramma Jewel and Great Aunt Reesie that she was having so much fun “just kickin’ it with Natasha and her peeps.” I told y’all that Auntie Gladys is a trip and a half; she said that she understood Gramma Jewel’s reason for not attending this year, but Great Aunt Reesie “ain’t got no excuse to not show up, especially when she’s on this side of the Mississippi!”

My response: “Oh, well—there’s always next year for Double-Double Trouble.”

Well, it looks like it’s time for me to close up this blog; I didn’t have Intro to Humanities class today, which explains why I’m posting a rather early blog. I shall holla at y’all later, but until then, y’all take care and be good.


Hugs & Kisses,
Natasha

It Begins Again, Y'all!

Me and Auntie Gladys at last year's Founders Day Weekend.
And A Very Happy Friday to All-A-Y’all!

Well, this is it, y’all—the 2013 Rust College Homecoming (a.k.a. Founders Day Weekend) is officially upon us!

I don’t know what it is, but Bearcat Country seems to get that much more exciting around this time of year, considering that this’ll be the second time that I will be part of the festivities. Let me put it this way: Founders Day Weekend is to Rust College what the SuperBowl is to an avid football fan.

Now y’all understand the importance of such a monumental event as Founders Day!

And yes, that is a picture of me and my Auntie Gladys from last year’s festivities. I can just hear some of the fellas now: “Dang, Tasha—your Auntie Gladys is a fox!”

One of the reasons why I am excited about this year’s festivities revolves around the coronation of Miss Rust 2013-14. I think I mentioned in a previous blog post that the coronation is fit for a queen—in every aspect of the word. It’s full of royal regality, and only one young lady is chosen as the elitest of the elite to represent her school, in a positive light, of course. And by the way: I have decided that before I graduate, I’m gonna throw my name in the ring… that’s right, y’all! As of this blog post, I—Natasha Renee Stewart—am running for Miss Rust College 2016-17!

Well, I guess I had better close up this blog post; after all, I’ve got Intro to Humanities in about ten minutes. Hopefully, I’ll be able to post a blog for tomorrow, but just in case I am unable to do so, I’ll just holla at y’all on Monday. Either way, y’all take care of yourselves and have a good weekend.

Hugs & Kisses,
Natasha
