Weird happy grins

Fall is my favorite season!! And, welcome September! Here it is!!! :) I now have to wear a sweatshirt while walking to classes, and shorts just don't cut it anymore. *insert happy weird grin here* And, soon, with the help of my brother and the computer engineers on my floor, pictures will be a possibility! I can't wait to show you my view at night from my dorm, my roommate, and my new friends.
Another reason I love fall: FOOTBALL!! (College is my favorite!) This past weekend was the wonderful ISU v. UNI game here in Ames. Congrats Cyclones, you pulled it off! With a win under our belt, the (evil) Hawkeyes (puke) travel to challenge us. (to my dismay, they will probably wipe the field with us, but i would like to pretend they won't.) Nebraska (another team i love) also won! :D
But, instead of actually going to the wet and rainy game last weekend, a few girls and I found a little kitchen and baked cupcakes! :) DELICIOSO!!!! (and you can see the recipe here)And, as a shrewd business woman, I sold them for $1 a piece or 3 for $2. I know, I was giving them away at that price, but, alas, people bought them! And not just people from my floor! Silly people like to check out the activity on all the floors and got suckered into buying cupcakes. haha crazy kids!

New to my posts: Every time I post, I will try to incorporate a funny story about non-Midwesterners misconceptions about our awesome traditions.
Here's number one:
On the really hot days, a bunch of us were sitting in the common room, wishing winter would come sooner! (In March, I'll wonder about our sanity) Then we transitioned to our favorite fall/winter treats. One girl said she couldn't wait for hot apple cider, and the kid from New Mexico yelled, "WHAT???" We all stared at the crazy 'foreign' child. "I thought that was only a Christmas myth!!" We thought he was kidding... he wasn't. YAY FALL!

Have a happy fall! :)
