AGGIE SPIRIT - I CAN"T BELIEVE IT'S NOT OCTOBER!!!

Hey Aggies It's Me Again, Ya Friend, Ya Boy, Ya Aggie: T.J.

     How are all of my readers doing?! I hope all is well. Here I am coming at you with another post! I hope all of you had a safe Halloween weekend and my weekend was great. Quick recap it all started with the Men's Basketball team first exhibition game against UC San Diego, then the following day Women's Volleyball was great as we cruised past Louisiana Tech. I have cheered my heart out and AGGIE PRIDE is alive and well here on campus!!!

     This week is the first week of November and I can't believe it! This semester is really going by fast!!! However, this week not only is there a Men's Basketball game & a Women's Volleyball game this Saturday. I can't wait for Wednesday night because there is another Big Band Jazz Concert which I'm sure will be one of the best of the semester. Also, in lighter news Psi Sigma Phi Multicultural Organization Incorporated will be hosting it's first annual Black & Purple Ball! And I hear this will be one of the classiest events of the year So get excited!!! Enjoy the video below I found about AGGIE SPIRIT (It's a little old school but you'll get the point!)

Be Encouraged!!!

P.S. Shout out to all my readers who came out to the Utah State open house this past week. It made me happy to see so many potential AGGIES!!! I LOVE ALL OF YOU & Thanks for your support!!!

HEY IT'S FALL!!! HAPPY HALLOWEEN MY PRETTIES!!!

AYO Wut's Up My True Blue Unbelievable Aggies!!!

 It's Me again, Ya Man, Ya Cousin, Ya Brother: T.J. Coming at you with another Blog. 

Right now as I write fall is in full swing up here at campus, and i don't know about you but I can't help but run through heaps of leaves or feeling that morning breeze from the mouth of the canyon. Logan is always beautiful this time of year and I love it!!!

So here we are a little more than halfway through another semester and I can't believe it! In the spirit of Halloween I wanted to share with you some of my experiences in celebrating the spooky holiday. 

     Odyssey Dance Theater returned to Utah State for a performance of its incredible Halloween dance show Thriller this year. I didn't get to see them when they came up to campus before so I was very excited. This show was filled hilarious moments, scary comedy, & some awesome dancing. This definitely set my mood for HALLOWEEN (OoOoOoO!!)

     Lastly, As a young man from the "BIG" city aka NYC I had never been in a haunted corn maze before let alone knew of what it was. Some friends and I went to the haunted corn maze after the USU Hockey game (which we won of course!!!) and it was one of the most terrifying and funniest moments of my life. Believe me I was scared out of my mind, my friends and didn't have a map or used any lights and on top of that they made me lead (AHHH!!!) There were some hooded figures, some guys with chainsaws, and I think I saw a dead zombie in there. Honestly I'm just glad I made it out of there alive!

I Decorated My Door For Halloween!!!

P.S. On a serious note:

Even though there is never a dull moment for this AGGIE I want to encourage you to be safe, responsible, and alert this Halloween, And I will be back next week with another post MY PRETTY!!! (HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!)

SHORT BLOG, AGGIE BASKETBALL & POETRY

Hey Aggies It's Ya Boy, Ya Man, Ya Nephew again: T.J.

I hope all is well with you like it is for me. This week was Mid-term week so not a whole lot of action going on for me but during my study time I wrote this poem that I wanted to share with you because you and I both know what's coming up soon: AGGIE BASKETBALL!!!

Utah State Basketball: Aggies

By: Anthony Pratt Jr.

This year I believe that we will win

We be true blue aggies see

Our passion lies within, so pick up

that ball, teamwork is the key

brush your jersey off, and lace your sneaks

It's that time again

To show this world that you belong here

and there is no other way

history lies on our spectrum floor

we abide by what we say

I'm ready for an upset this year

I wanna be blown away

Be Encouraged!!!

Please Don't Go Home This Weekend & Middle Week =D

Hey Wuts Up Aggies!! It's Ya boy, Ya Man, Ya Nephew: T.J.

                  And I'm coming at you with another post!

          I hope all is well in your classes, family, life, etc. This week is what i call "Middle Week" I call it that because it is the middle of the semester. So congrats to all Utah State Students for working hard and moving foreword. We aren't near the end of the semester yet, but well enough into it so there's no turning back now!!! 

          This past weekend was great. There were a lot of events going on around campus. Some of those events included a Gospel concert, Women's Soccer, Men's Rugby, A 5K Run, etc. Most importantly, the USU Aggies Football Team had a great showing against the Wyoming cowboys who visited Romney Stadium Saturday night. I say all of that to say this: THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING GOING ON HERE ON CAMPUS!!! This weekend I went to the football game and I felt that there were way too many empty seats in the students section. As USU students we need to stand up, and show out our AGGIE PRIDE!!! I want to encourage students to refrain from going home every weekend. Part of being in college at Utah State is enjoying the student social life. I am not trying to put college over family, but I believe one of the best ways to "gain from" college is to experience all that it has to offer.

        P.S. Don't forget to checkout the "JAZZTOBER FEST" aka the BIG BAND/JAZZ concert this week and it's all going down up here at Utah State University!!!

Be Encouraged!!! 

CHOIR WEEK!!! DO RE MI!! LEGOO!!!

Hey Ya'll its me, Ya Aggie, Ya Nephew, Ya Kinfolk:  T.J.

        I hope by this time a lot of you have settled into your school routines, and probably taken an exam or two, and even figured out a rhythm to this whole College Thing. If not keep working at it but meanwhile here's another post from yours truly about what is going on in my life this week. This week is the week I call Choir Week! Where I will be performing. This year however I will be showcasing in two concerts. This Wednesday is the annual Autumn Voices concert which will feature some of Utah State University's best choirs such as Chamber Singers (which were recently nominated for three Grammy's), Women's Ensemble, & University Chorale. This will take place on campus and it's free to USU students! I would invite everyone out to this show and come early because this show Always Sells Out!

        

         Moreover, this Friday is another concert of epic proportions. American Festival Chorus is presenting: "Celebrate! An Evening of Gospel Music" This concert will leave you feeling uplifted, blessed, and holy-spirit filled. There are also several guests coming to perform at this concert. Salt Lake city's very own "Calvary Baptist Choir" will be performing. Also, my mother will be coming all the way from New York City to perform and I am so excited! This concert will take place in the Kent concert Hall on campus so i recommend you get your tickets early (prices vary). So strap on your Aggie Belts and come with me on another action-packed week for me so I hope I see you at these events because they will be stellar! Other than that keep working hard, keep studying, and keep that AGGIE PRIDE!!!

Be Encouraged Y'all!!!
