11 Signs You're From Bowling Green State University
BGSU.edu

Football traditions, giant squirrels, night life and more... BGSU has it's own unique experiences that only those who go there would truly understand! If you can quickly relate to these 11 BGSU things, you're definitely a student or alum from Bowling Green State University!

1. You can handle brutal winds.

When you get to class with dried wind tears streaking your face is the norm... you know you're at BG. BGSU students become masters at walking with heads down during the cold months.

2. Pics at the vagina... I mean Metamorphosis rock.

Smack dab in old campus.. the giant rock on display right next to the University seal. Don't lie... you've taken a picture with it before!

3. Ayy Ziggy!

Every sporting event sings Ayy Ziggy! After just one BGSU sporting event, you'll be singing Ayy Ziggy and doing the arm motions, too!

4. SIC SIC candy

One of the most unique college traditions, SIC SIC has been a part of BGSU for years scaring children (and students) with their masks and high pitched voices! But more importantly, they spread University sprit and candy! SIC SIC keeps their secret identities for years!

5. Silent eighth floor

When you're at Club Jerome to meet up with a friend and study, you avoid eighth floor at all costs, considering it's so seriously silent that if you cough, you'll get looks.

6. The Legal Joint

What better way to end (or begin) a night with a legal joint drink at Brauthaus!? You can't leave without a giant basket of ranch or white cheddar popcorn!

7. Squirrels


Everywhere! No surprise if the chubby ones awkwardly approach you at your feet. And if you're lucky while walking through old campus, you'll come across the albino squirrel running around!

8. El Zarape

The college budget restaurant for any occasion from a 21st birthday to visiting friends and family, Zarape is the perfect go to! Oh, and the margs... you can't forget the margs. Well, you might forget by the end of a monster one!

9. The Battle of I-75

The T-word is not used around here... blue and yellow? Come on!

10. Parking Services

If you think you can park in a lot for five minutes to print a paper and not come out to a $20 ticket, think again! BGSU parking services are on it like a bee to a flower!

11. Massive DQ Blizzard

BGSU DQ is not just any normal DQ! They give double the amount of ice cream! Located perfectly downtown!

Bowling Green State University leaves students with memories that will last a lifetime. Bringing friends to BGSU is fun because you get to share all of the bittersweet experiences with those who don't get to every day! It's comforting knowing that every time BGSU students and alum return, the little things are still the same.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
