Happy A.L.F!

Boy things haven't slowed down a bit for me since I last wrote! Which is why I haven't posted in a while. It's been great though, and this is the best week ever! It's the annual Autumn Leaf Festival, and I love every minute of it! My roommates and I went into town yesterday to get some yummy food you can't get but twice a year (at Spring Fling too!) After we walked around aimlessly, trying to decide what to get, we loaded up on a bucket of fries, lemonade, sandwiches, and I got a garlic pasta bread bowl: My favorite food to eat there. And next time I go: a poor man's caramel apple. I highly recommend all the food, but those are my favorite. The Quaker Steak and Lube wings are wonderful as well!
So that was my first ALF experience so far (this year), and it was great. I'm very excited for Saturday because I was asked to commentate the parade for our television station! It's tradition I guess you could say, that seniors get asked to do things like that first for the parade, then it trickles down to juniors and so on. I'm so excited! It'll be an early morning, but a fun day. And the weather is supposed to be great!
Tonight I get to go cover the kiddie parade at 5:30 for the news! I love kids, and I think it'll be such a fun story to do. Hopefully I can get some cute kids to interview.
Now I must tell this story that I remembered. Last Friday, as I was done with the news, I had to go to the Tippin Pool to film scuba diving classes for a package this week. The class started at 6, but since I anchored, I couldn't make it until 7:30. So Megan and I walk into the pool area, and the only people present were the instructors. And they're putting all their gear away. So we started talking to the instructor and she informs us there were only 2 people, so the class was cut shorter than planned. And after telling her how I have always wanted to learn how to scuba dive, and was bummed I missed this story, she tells me to come back in 3 weeks. She has an underwater camera and everything for me to use, so she's letting me get into the pool and learn to scuba dive! I am so excited! That is one of the fun things on my life's 'to-do' list that I want to complete. Who knew that would happen! I'm sure I'll write about it and how much fun I had. Even for a college TV station, you never know what kind of 'perks' you could get.
Until next time, if you haven't already, get out and enjoy ALF! There is so much to see and do, and lots of food to keep you going! It's definitely one of the great things in Clarion. Have a great day everyone and be sure to keep reading my blog! :)
