Thank God, for Hurricane Rita moved to the right at the last moment and avoided Galveston and Houston. We still haven’t even gotten any rain here in San Marcos. This is quite a relief, as the storm was originally expected to make landfall in Galveston as a category 5 hurricane, which most likely would have resulted in the entire destruction of the island. Anyways, all is well.

This past Thursday, the TX State Bobcats took on Texas A&M University in their first game against each other since 1949. The Bobcats did lose 44-31, but they put up quite a battle. The game was intense and full of energy, as TX State, a division-1-double-a school, came dangerously close to beating out a division-1 Big 12 program.

That same night, I got into a crazy wrestling match with one of my fraternity brothers. The only thing was, he was bigger than me and definitely had some whiskey in his system. Our scuffle was crazy, with us flying all around the room. At one point, I lifted him over my head and slammed him on the kitchen island. Anyways, the match came to an unfortunate end when he had me in a head-lock and toppled over backwards; I managed to basically dive into the concrete floor, knocking my head so hard that people outside even heard it. I just saw black and then a bright flash… Concussion. No big deal though, I was fine the next morning.

Ahh, good times. Enjoy the week!
