The title of this post is a twofold title. On one hand, this last weekend at Point Loma, it was Homecoming weekend! On the other hand, this is my homecoming back to this blog which I have been so terrible at keeping updated. It's been more than a month since I've written about it anything. But hopefully this homecoming won't just be a one weekend event like Point Loma's was!
Anyway, let's talk about Homecoming! Homecoming at Point Loma is super exciting because it's really an all week long affair that culminates in the Homecoming basketball games that bring out the most school spirit in students and alumni that you'll see all year. Here's some pictures that give a glimpse of what the spirit is like. There's so many more that you can find on Point Loma's Flickr page where you can see what kind of stuff goes on around campus. Check that out too! Without further ado:
 |
| A big majority of the "Green Sea," which is basically the school spirit
section in the gym. As you can see, everyone is decked out in green and yellow shirts, morph suits, hats, wigs, face paint, pom poms, etc. to
support the Sea Lions! It's quite fun to get spirited up. |
 |
| An up close shot of the center section of the Green Sea! The few guys you see in the front are what we call Green Sea Hooligans. They get their own shirts and their role basically is to be the most spirited of the fans and get everyone to get loud and energetic. It's like they're cheerleaders, but from the stands. We were cheering really hard obviously for the game. Or maybe just for the picture. I'm not sure. |
 |
| I'm messing with Roary, the mascot here. No, he is not an actual sea lion. Our mascot is a lion with seaweed for his mane. That makes sense, right? |
 |
| I really like this picture. It's a shot someone got of me and my friend Jordan just walking around like the buds we are. It gives the warm tinglies to see this picture! It's my profile picture on my Facebook now because I liked it so much! I put a link to my FB not to become more popular or anything but to provide a way for whatever readers I have to interact with me in a more efficient manner than blog comments, which don't really happen too much ha. But I got a message today from someone who reads my blog and it was one of the highlights of my day, so if you see this, thanks Jessie! :) And to anyone else, I'd love to hear from you and answer any questions you have about Point Loma life! |
 |
| This last one was from half time where we had a basketball competition among the students. I participated (obviously) and got second place, losing to a girl. But in my defense she was really good. Even if I didn't throw the game, she would've come close to beating me anyway ;) |

Well that's all I have for now! I plan to keep you more updated on the happenings of my Point Loma career!
I pray that God would bless any who reads this and that you would be encouraged to maybe have your own Homecoming to something you've given up on recently like a relationship or something you really enjoy but haven't had time for. I don't know! Just find your "home" and stay there! Until next time,
That is all.
