i feel compelled to update, about what, i do not know.
all i know is that i really feel like writing.
but since the biggest change in my life right now from where it was is college, i should probably write about that.
college is great, i'm loving it. it's basically like constantly hanging out with people your age 24/7, and going to classes in between that. lol. don't get me wrong, i study and do homework! i'm not a bad kid! before i came to college i made a resolution to be a better student and to develop study habits! and i think i'm starting to! they're not 100% but, they're working on becoming better.
what is OSU like, many may ask, since it's such foreign territory to everyone? well, it's amazing. it's a huge campus, with so much going on, and with SO much school spirit, i've never seen anywhere that has as much school spirit as OSU [and all of ohio is united behind OSU, which is why the whole state of ohio is anti-michigan, because there is simply so much spirit here..] there's SOOOOOO many traditions here, i mean, the football games are just chalked full of it, from block-0, to the dotting of the i, to carmen ohio, to the OH-IO, to hang on sloopy, and soo soo much more!
Story time? here's some stories that have happened since i've gotten here...
1) So, i spend 90% of my time in the guys' room next door [the 2130s.. i'm in the 2100s]. it's fun. actually, there's usually an average of 15 people in there at any given time, including half of my suite and peter [who used to live on north campus but now moved to floor 22 of lincoln], and kevin [from the 2140s, but he went to hs w/ all of them]. We have fun. they're JUST like all the people at school that i've known for years... well some of them, anyways. I'm convinced that billy = a carbon copy of Kevin, Random witty insults included.
2) The guys next door to me[ish] aka the 2140s, have rockband :) that's always a fun time :). i was over there till 4am on friday night singing and such, while doing engineering homework when i wasn't singing, lol. but that didn't work out so well... i spent most of the time actually singing.
3) so 2 days ago, one of my roommates decided to volunteer my room to be toured by honors tour groups. this happened on friday, and on thursday night i didn't go to sleep till 4 and had an 8 am class.. so i was exhausted, and so i wnated to take a nap. so i took a 3 hour nap on the guys couch in the 2130s.. i'm convinced that they were like "wtf why is she in here?" whenever someone walked in after classes.. kyle didn't think i was serious when i asked him.. but i was. and i brought pillow, blanket, and teddy bear :) lol.
4) The RPAC is wonderful!!! for people who do not know anything about OSU, the RPAC = recrecational and physical activity center. It's like 500,000 square feet of amazing-ness, from basketball courts and tennis courts, and cardio machines and every sort of machine and free weight madness, to the pools [THERES 6!!! of them!!!] yeah, it's awesome. i go swimming everyday. it's wonderful. :)
5) there is now a shopping cart being stored in our trashroom.. because i went to target and on my way back, all of my bags began ripping [and i had like 6 of them anyways, and it was wayyy too heavy to carry back. so i brought the cart back w/ me... brought it into the elevator... took it up to the 21st floor, and emptied all of my groceries out of it... and then i put it in the trashroom, after consulting w/ the boys of what to do w/ it :P... so yes, we have a shopping cart in our trashroom... i'm sure i'll take it back someday? maybe?
6) on fridays, we play ultimate outside on the turf right outside of lincoln. it's a blast !!! we play w/ these guys that are really amazing, though. like seriously, they wear cleats and such and everything! and they just look like ultimate players. i'm SURE they play on some sort of team! and they're absolutely amazing! but despite being amazing, they're incredibly nice and include everyone of all skill levels, and like when i play, they don't just ignore because i'm the only girl and i'm not that great, they actually pass to me and try to include me :) they're really nice.
7) Real life is sweet :) it reminds me of Edge a ton... but i'm going to try out alive, which is where these guys that we played ultimate with go to. so we'll see how that is. i may just go to both :) that would be fun! haha.
8) my class schedule is crazy nasty. thursday and tuesday i have classes 11:30am-7:30pm almost straight [i have like 2 hours of time between swedish (11:30-12:30) and math (2:30-3:30) but not really cuz it takes me 20 min to walk to and from either, so it's almsot more like an hour of time only :(] i DO like all of my classes very much :) they're fun. my bio class is the only one that is sucky.. 8am lecture MWF, and 5:30-7:30pm lab TR.. yuckyy. but next quarter i get to schedule my own schedule, and i'm gunna have all classes between 9am and 3:30 pm.. or maybe even 7:30 and 1pm. i haven't decided yet, even though i only have like 2 days to decide...
uhmmm idk what else to say. it's so hard to describe OSU to people, when no one has any idea of what it's like. like seriously, it's amazing! and i cannot possibly describe how awesome this school is to people that have never seen it or visited before .
k bye.
