The chill is beginning to set into the air. Soccer is in full swing and my metabolism is peaking that hill that will run until next June.
Amid soccer games, conditioning, school work and theater starting up, comes homecoming week.

Each year every class is assigned a rival team of another school. We incorporate their mascot, build a float with a theme around said mascot
and then a parade is held through town. After the parade is a pep rally and then a huge bonfire in wich we burn an effigy of the rival mascots.

This being my junior year and third go at homecoming week I've got the routine down. Our float is almost finished and the games have begun.

This year my class got the Dexter tigers as the mascot. After a brief debate we decided to go with a circus themed float.
Usually we have so many unattainable plans and things that never work out. Well this year was different. It being a circus theme
and the mascot being a tiger, one of the field hockey players ( she usually takes the leader position in everything) decided we needed a clown and a tiger.
So they rented a clown costume and a tiger suit.

Any of you that know me probably know that I'm pretty shameless. (ie cross dress day this past summer at UMO) . And I'm pretty energetic and out going.
Well the first day of float building alot of my class mates were thinking of who would make a good tiger. Naturally the majority (to my pleasant surprise) felt
I would be a good candidate. I agreed to do it not really expecting the plans to go through but thought it would be cool if they did.

This evening to my surprise I arrived at the float building to find a tiger suit.
So wish me luck Thursday evening!

Because tonight, I'm a tiger :)
