    It’s hard to believe I never wanted to be here.

    Wednesday, March 20th, 2013

    Earlier this week as I was walking around campus from class to class, the misty rain slowly soaked me and the cold hit my face with a vengeance. As I looked around, the sky was murky gray, all of the tree branches stood bare, the muddy ground held puddles, the wind blew from every direction, [...]

    I’ve been seeing a lot of awesome Ohio State stuff on Pinterest lately, and I thought it might be time I shared a few photos of my favorite Buckeye paraphernalia!

    Where are you, Christmas?

    Sunday, December 30th, 2012

    Almost everybody is familiar with the story of “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”. We read the Dr. Seuss book as children and laughed at Jim Carrey costumed with wrinkly green skin and a wry sense of humor in the Hollywood adaptation. Watching the movie this holiday season, there is one particular song that stuck out [...]

    Happy (Belated) Veteran’s Day!

    How do you choose to honor them?

    We Survived the Evacuation of 2012!

    Sunday, September 30th, 2012

    A little over a week ago, somewhere around 2,000 students were evacuated from dorms on south campus. I was one of those students. And I have to say, I’m so glad that it happened!

    I. AM. STRESSED.

    Tuesday, September 25th, 2012

    Hey all, I’ve gotta admit it. This year is kind of killing me. And it’s not even that I have too much homework, or too much extracurricular involvement, or anything like that. Nah, I am stressed because I can’t seem to DO anything.

    Buckeye Bucket List Pt. II: SAC Bucket List

    Sunday, September 23rd, 2012

    A while back, I blogged about my own personal “Buckeye Bucket List”. I came up with 50 things I wanted to accomplish before I left campus in a couple of years, and many people have commented on how inclusive my list was. Recently, I have been looking into applying for SAC, or the Student Alumni [...]

    I definitely made the right choice.

    Monday, September 10th, 2012

    I work as an Office Assistant at my residence hall, Baker West, which means it’s a 24/7 staffed front desk. Of course, as a result I am usually awake at odd hours of the night, scouring my computer for something to entertain me when I don’t have homework or studying to do. As I tried [...]

    We’re Baaaaack!

    Sunday, August 26th, 2012

      Well, it’s August 26th, and by now everyone is moved in, classes have started, and Ohio State’s first year on semesters is in full swing! It’s crazy to think that it’s my second year here at The Ohio State University. I’m actually somewhat in denial, and am probably more excited than half of the [...]

    It’s almost here…

    Move-in day, that is!

    I love to PACK.

    Tuesday, July 24th, 2012

    As my short & sweet summer winds down to a premature end, I’ve gotta start preparing myself for my sophomore year at The Ohio State University. This includes ordering textbooks, picking up some new clothes, shopping for school supplies, and my favorite part of all…packing!

    Mid-summer spike!

    Saturday, July 14th, 2012

    At least that’s what I’m calling it. Blame it on Pinterest boards, or on the fact that I lost a couple pounds at college, my swimsuit bottoms no longer fit, and family friends and relatives keep making comments about it…but I’ll admit, it’s all been motivation for me! I have less than weeks left at [...]

    College Survival Tips – Part 1 (Classes)

    Thursday, June 21st, 2012

    As newly graduated high school seniors start to get ready for their freshman year of college, making their lists of dorm necessities, getting new clothes, and scheduling classes, it’s important to keep in mind that college is a lot different than high school. While I was waiting to talk to an adviser one day, I [...]

    Buckeye Bucket List

    Monday, June 18th, 2012

    As my freshman year at Ohio State comes to an end, I’ve been thinking about all the things I’d like to do in the next three years I am lucky enough to be at Ohio State. I’m hoping to continue adding to this list, and am always taking suggestions! :)
