My creative way of blogging about myself will be for me to tell you some random facts about me because I'm not sure how else to do this. First off one of my worst qualities is being the biggest procrastinator ever! I don't know why I do this to myself but I always do. Don't get me wrong, I always end up getting everything done but I leave so much unneeded pressure on myself and I could maybe do a little better if I gave myself more time. Even though when it comes to midterms and finals, I'll always stay up the whole night before to study weather I'm prepared or not. Another thing about me is I am a huge sports fan. As I've mentioned in many other blogs, I am a die hard Pittsburgh Steelers fan. My favorite player is Mike Wallace and I also Troy Polomalu and Hines Ward. I am also obviously obsessed with Ohio State football and basketball. I watch every single game and go to most of the home ones. This takes up a lot of studying time, just like just now when I should be at the library but I watched the game that went into overtime, but we won so it was worth it. I hate finals week but that's a given I think we all do. I'm so not looking forward to this long weekend of just studying. I'm isolating myself from my friends for this whole weekend so I can actually get things done. Then I can go home and somewhat relax until spring quarter starts and will be even harder than this one. Good Luck to everybody on their finals!

Hmm well if I was born in the early nineteen hundreds I would have been a flapper because I love fashion, the newest trends, being girly, and kind of standing out and doing what I want to do. If I was alive during the sixties I don't know if I would have been a hippie or not but I would have went to Woodstuck because it seems like one of the funnest things. I would also love discos because I love dancing and having a good time. I probably wouldn't be a hippie though cause I would be married to John F Kennedy because I love him and I think I would make a great first lady and be very helpful. Or if I alive at the time of the world wars I would have been Rosie the Riviter. If I was alive during slavery I would have helped the slaves because that's sad and nobody should have been treated like that. If I was in Germany I would have helped the Jews because that is also sad and they shouldn't have been treated like that. This is a really random blog but I don't really know what to write about, I know I'll think of something better I should have wrote some other time, when I realize when I would have liked to live but right now I'm just stressed out and my mind is just on chemistry and math and studying for finals because there are going to be very hard and I'm very worried. I should be doing much better than I am in those classes but I'm not so I'm going to study! bye!

My biggest mistake was taking math 151 and not doing the suggested problems and webwork for the class. Since none of this was taken for a grade I didn't feel there was a need to do this stuff, when in fact, in would have been great practice and I would have learned so much. Instead now I'm scared I might not pass the class which is really sad and depressing to me. I am really stressed for the final for this class and need to study a lot. We had a midterm last night and it was terrible. Everyone in the class thought so though so hopefully the average was really low so the curve gives me an average grade. I'm terrified to check what I got. I studied so much for this midterm and I feel it didn't help at all so it was just a big waste of my time and made me really tired. One of the reasons this is so depressing to me is before college I never had anything but an A in math my whole life. Then first quarter I took math 150 and got an A and a B on the two midterms while my friends would fail. My friends even called me the math fairy. I wish I would have took calculus in high school but instead I took algebra twice instead of going straight to geometry when I got to high school, so I only got up to pre calc by senior year. Hopefully I do well on this final and then learn my lesson to do my webwork and suggested problems next quarter in 152. I want this quarter to be over! I'm so stressed about our papers and my chemistry and math finals. Well guess I'll start studying! Bye.

My best friend is Sarah Louise Muncey. We have been friends since third grade and the summer after fourth grade she moved across the street for me and we became best friends. She moved the summer before    our freshman year of high school but only like 7 driving minutes away. She moved because her mom got married and they built a new house, I was sad and thought we wouldn't spend as much together but I think I might have been at her new house even more than her old one. Sarah and I were voted best friends in our senior class for our senior awards. We have went on vacation together every summer since eighth grade excluding this pass summer because of ours and our friends graduations parties. We have went to Fripp Island, South Carolina, Orlando, Atlanta, Chicago, and Myrtle Beach. We are going back to Fripp Island this summer too like two weeks after we get out of school. I'm so excited. It's a private island where her step uncle lives and it's beautiful and so much fun. Everything I do with Sarah is so much fun we can make anything a good time. Sarah plays softball at Adrian College in Michigan. I haven't seen her since I went home about a month ago for her brothers wedding. I miss her so much I finally get to come visit her at her college during spring break since I'm not going anywhere. I've only visited her once and that was before we started school and she has only visited me once because she always has softball, but since Ohio State gets out much later than everyone else she is going to come here a lot during spring quarter. I don't know how we go so long without seeing each other when everyone found out we were going to different colleges everyone was shocked and always asked us what we were going to do without one another, but we're still as close as ever and will be all summer. Me and Sarah will be best friends forever!

My favorite place in the whole world is The Ohio State University. I am so proud to say that I go here. This place has so much to offer and I've enjoyed every bit of it. The best 6, or so, months of my life have been the six months that I have attended this university. Since I've been here I've have learned so much both in and out of the classroom, made the best of friends, met tons of new people, and had so much fun. I didn't think I would meet as many or as good as friends as I have since I've been here but I have made just as many friends, if not more, as I had in high school. I have also met four best friends that I know I will have for the rest of my life. I've have taken challenging and stimulating classes and learned so much, even if it was very hard and annoying, in the two quarters that I have been here and am proud to know as much as I do and learn more in the next 3 or so years. I have also had unbelievable experiences, the best ones being the football and basketball games. It has been unbelievable to be a part of the student section and buckeye nation and to watch in person the things people watch on television all over the country. Also to get to interact with the student athletes that people back home, and all over the country, know of and hear about all the time on TV. The pep rallies, the mirror lake jump-in, the concerts, the parties, the bars, everything has been amazing and life changing so far and I wouldn't trade it for anything!

1. For one of the boy's basketball games this year (not tonights) I decided to go a few hours early so I could get good seats like right behind the bench. I was probably like the twenty some person in line and was with just one other friend. When I went to hand them my student ticket to exchange for the real ticket they asked how many were in my group and I said just me and my friends and they said we were the two seats filling the end court  side tickets right in front on the student section. So we got to sit court side. When the ball was knocked out of bounds one time it came right to me and I got to throw it in to Jon Diebler. It was so sweet, ever since I try to get there early and pray that it will happen again. 

2. Over winter break I went to stay with all of my friends that I met here at school in Akron, which is obviously close to cleveland. I was staying for three nights and we wanted to think of something to do one night so we went to the Cavs game since it was only a half hour from their house and the tickets weren't expensive at all. We were going to a friends party after so we figured we'd leave a little after half time so we could get there on time and figured they would be getting killed by that time anyways. We started having a really good time and getting into the game which was really close so we decided we wanted to stay till it was over. It ended up going into overtime and the Cavs won!

3. One time in a cooking class in high school we were making cookies and we got tons of dough so my group was exciting to get to make a lot of cookies because we were all always really hungry at that time in the day. We made a tons of cookies on one sheet and just put a few that wouldn't fit on another. When the cookies were done I went to take the tray with all of them out of the oven and it burnt the side of my finger so i like tossed it onto the stove and it slid off into the trash can and started a small fire and was smoking everywhere. No cookies for us.

My word for this blog is going to be basketball because today I went to the boy's last home regular game of the season against Wisconsin. It was probably one of the coolest things I've ever been to. As most of you should know Wisconsin gave us our first lost of the season ruining our perfect record so everyone was jacked to play them again especially at home. I got to the basketball game four hours and twenty minutes early today, so I could get good seats. I did get pretty good seats but not the ones you think I would deserve for waiting in the cold for three hours until they started letting people in. Tonights basketball game was senior night, which was sad but the cool thing about that is David Lighty, an all-star senior guard for the buckeyes, went through the whole line like two and a half hours before game time taking pictures with the fans, signing autographs, and thanking everyone for waiting in that long, cold line for so long to support them. I got a picture with him! The arena was so loud and hyped for the big game and there was even fireworks for the pregame show. The buckeyes did amazing. They set two NCAA records shooting 93.3 percent from the 3 point range, and following the first 3 point miss with 14 straight made. After the game we got to run onto the court and watch the team receive the big ten trophy and cut down the net. The buckeye's basketball team finished with a perfect season at home and are rated number one in the nation. Go Bucks!
