Over the past weekend, my university had its annual homecoming weekend. I am obsessed with homecoming weekend because I have an overabundance of school spirit because I love the school I attend. That's not the only reason, though. I am also a dancer for a dance team at my school called Boogie Knights, and we get to perform in the homecoming weekend too.

Homecoming is a great time. It gives you something to look forward to in the middle of the semester to take your mind off your studies. It is a bunch of events hosted in the weekend by the students for the students. It's just a great time.

Homecoming takes off on the Thursday of the weekend. Thursday is when we hold our annual King and Queen of homecoming pageant, which is basically a talent show. My dance team performs in this as well. We get all dressed up and made-up and it is awesome because we work so hard for weeks and then we finally perform.

On Friday on Homecoming we have the bonfire. There is also a bunch of fireworks and it is a dance party for all of your friends to come to. Homecoming weekend is my favorite time of year, because I love Fall and I love bonfires. You get to come together with your friends and have an overall great night.

On Saturday, it is family and alumni picnic day. The campus gets filled with tons of alumni and families. They have cool events for everybody to do, and they have lots of food, and once again we performed for all of the families.

Homecoming weekend is one of my most favorite times of the year, besides recital in April.
