You know what my favorite season is? Spring? Summer? Football. I love it soo much. In fact, every time I hear Boys of Fall by Kenny Chesney I almost cry. I'm not sure what it is. Maybe it's the whole Texas, Friday Night Lights, small town thing. I don't know, but I love it.
One day I was thinking about why I love it so much, and then I realized. Football season kind of represents everything good in my life. That sounds weird, but just hear me out. Freshman year was the greatest football season. Our team was awesome, I was on the greatest dance team ever, everyone got pumped at football games and peprallys, and life was how it should be. Freshman football season represented a lot of firsts for me. My first dance gig every week in front of a huge crowd, my first time to travel with a football team, my first rainy football game where we just splashed in the puddles and cheered on the boys even more intensely, my first date, my first boyfriend. It was great. My life was perfect at that time. Every time I think of that couple of months, I start to tear up. I didn't appreciate how awesome my life was, and I would give anything to go back and experience that again. Ironically, my dad died at the end of my Freshman football season. I missed the last game. The last football season just wasn't the same. Dance was different, the school's atmosphere was different, the football team was different. Nothing was as exciting as it was the first time around. Now everything is changing. I won't be doing dance next year. I'm now a proud water girl of the LCCS Eagle Football Team. I guess what I'm saying, is just appreciate everything while you have it. Seasons of your life come in and out quickly. Enjoy it while you can.
I can't wait to see what Football season brings along with it this year.
