Summer Class

I wish I had taken more summer classes. Now that I am a senior, I am both extremely ready to be done and extremely frightened about graduating. While I am mostly ready to be done, I keep thinking about how my sanity would have benefitted if I had taken more summer classes. I get very busy with rehearsal and school so the last thing I ever want to do is a paper for a general education class. I truly love keeping busy, but sometimes I turn into a huge worrywart. Had I taken more summer classes, specifically general education ones, I really think I would have enjoyed myself more during the school year. Not that I do not enjoy myself when I am at school, but I guarantee I would have tried a little harder in some classes if I had not had such a full schedule. Summer classes are great! I am really happy to be taking one now even though it is my final summer as a student, unless of course I go to graduate school. I believe I would have even tried to graduate earlier if I had gotten more

What Do You Meme?

I love memes. Honestly, that is probably why I am on social media more than I used to be because there are so many great memes on my feed. I am sure a lot of people I know would not use “great” to describe memes on their Facebook feed, but alas, I love humor so naturally, I laugh at everything. Half of them are incredibly ridiculous and stupid, but I soak up the wit. The stuff that is on the Internet can be absurd, but the good memes always find a way to make me giggle. Some people truly despise them and I do not understand why! Sure, they can be silly, but isn’t life a little silly sometimes? I mean if you are going to use social media, the memes are going to be unavoidable so you might as well join in on it and enjoy them. Truthfully, I feel like I am a walking meme sometimes because my life can be an absolute joke. Oh well, I laugh it up. I have always wondered if utilizing memes for businesses on social media would be appropriate. The more I think about it, the more on the

Yay For Summer Health

Being a college student in the summer and not having a specific schedule makes it easier for me to become lazy. I love school because it keeps me super busy and on track, especially health wise. With several dance classes and rehearsals, I love how active my major can be, but when summer hits and I am not in a show or going to dance class, I feel like quite the slacker. Recently, I have picked up running to try and stay in shape before school starts again. I even bought an app to help me get started. This is the first app I have ever actually paid money for so I am hoping it works. The Green Monster has been a great friend to me and I have gotten a chance to admire how beautiful ONU’s campus really is. We are so lucky to have a campus filled with trees! For me, it also becomes easier to eat worse in the summer because I feel like I am constantly going out to eat with my friends. This summer has been a little different though because I am so poor. The older I have gotten, the m

Finstagram Should Vanish

“A picture is worth a thousand words,” and I totally agree. I love Instagram. I love looking at pictures and I love posting pictures. Besides Instagram being my favorite platform in general, I believe it is a great tool for not only personal purposes, but business purposes as well. You are able to market yourself in such a creative way. There are several social media fads that come and go, but the worst has got to be what is called, “Finstagram,” otherwise known as, fake Instagram. I hate it and I have seen awful things come from it. “Finsta” is a way to create another Instagram profile that is supposedly for posting random pictures, videos, and long captions where you can be as ruthless as you want; essentially, a diary. So, in my opinion, why not just get a diary? Sure, they can be hilarious. I have friends that have them and they go wild with their posts, (mainly posts they only want a select group of followers to see). Usually set on private, these “Finsta” users go as far as

Cuisine

One of the most popular restaurants in Ada, Ohio for students is El Campo, the only authentic Mexican cuisine you can get if you do not want to drive twenty minutes or more. We love it. Some students might even find themselves there multiple times per week. Whether it is a margarita or queso you are in need of after a long week of classes, El Campo provides. But, more recently, since I am living in Ada for the summer, I have discovered that I do not think El Campo is actually that good, or as good as it is cracked up to be. More often than not, whenever I visit El Campo it is usually just for a quick margarita and endless amounts of chips and salsa. Usually, I am just too poor to eat out. I am always satisfied but there are times when I look at meals around me that do not look appealing in the slightest. This is where I have come to the conclusion that students adore El Campo simply because it is all we have in this measly municipality we call Ada, Ohio. My thoughts were provoked
