I barely got out of my Philosophy class and it was barely 12:30pm so I decided to go to the aggie lounge to do my field notes since I didn't have anything else to do. Once I entered the Aggie Lounge, the first thing I noticed was that there was many people towards my right wearing crimson shirts that had "NM State" on the upper right part of their shirt. As I looked down to see what they were doing here, on the table it said "Aggie Welcome and Orientation". This explained why there were many tables in the middle of the whole aggie lounge covered by crimson sheets. Although the television was, like usual, nobody was putting attention to it, probably because the tables and decorations were in the way of everyone.
As everybody sat in the corners of the aggie lounge, including my friends, they were all doing being quiet as they were doing their homework except the people with the crimson shirts. Two of the girls from the orientation table were making some weird noises and moved around as if they were dancing. After they did this for quite a while 3 others of that same table stood by them and started singing in Spanish as more of them started to join. Once they finished, one of the girls from that table came to where we were sitting, and then she told him something in Spanish which I didn't get to hear. They started talking about some class and catching up on everything, after a few minutes of feeling uncomfortable I started to leave but as I was leaving, someone in the pistol pete costume came in, guess they were about to start the event.
