WAITING FOR A LONG TIME

Even with the help of my Macbook, I've never been too good at creating my own videos. However, if I were to make a highlight video in preparation for tonight's NIT Championship, I would be sure to include "Waiting" by Green Day as the background music. As you can see in the lyrics below, it sum's up the feelings of the Penn State basketball team and fan base quite well. The program has been starving for a championship for years and years, and tonight, all of the hope, dreams and hard work by the team are finally coming to fruition.


"I've been waiting for a long time
For this moment to come
I'm destined
For anything...at all
Downtown lights will be shining
On me like a diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour
No one can touch me now
And I can't turn my back
It's too late ready or not at all

I'm so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up

Dawning of a new era
Calling...don't let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all
So close enough to taste it
Almost...I can embrace this
Feeling....on the tip of my tongue

I'm so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up
Better thank your lucks stars....

I've been waiting for a long time
For this moment to come
I'm destined for anything at all

Dumbstruck
Color me stupid
Good luck
You're gonna need it
Where I'm going if I get there...
At all....

Wake up
Better thank your lucky stars...."
