If Your Alumni Dad Comes to Visit OSU...

If Your Alumni Dad comes to visit OSU...

He's going to want to see campus. When you start walking around, however, he's going to get lost.

When he gets lost, you're going to have to remind him that it's been a few years since he's been at school.

You'll continue walking and at least he'll remember Mirror Lake.

He'll be jealous of all the new improvements that OSU's added recently.

When he starts ranting about new things, he'll definitely want to see the RPAC.

He'll want to work out and play tennis, and run the track, and take a class, and...

you'll have to distract him to get him back on track.

By the time you get to the Oval, he's probably going to be hungry. He'll ask you to go to Sloopy's.

He'll be overwhelmed by how big and loud the Student Union can be, so you'll have to get in and out pretty fast.

When he's finished eating, he'll probably want dessert. So he'll ask to get Buckeye Donuts.

On your way down High Street, he'll point out how different everything is again.

He'll get confused by the giant bull's head on one of the buildings and you'll have to explain the existence of Bulls to him.

When he hears about Bulls, he'll probably want to dance.

He will start "dad dancing" in the street. You'll have to pretend that you don't know him until you get to Buckeye Donuts.

Once you get a donut, he'll probably get tired and want to relax back at your place.

When you get back to your dorm/apartment, he'll remember how small your living space is.

He'll want to talk about your life at school and reminisce about, "the old days."

When he starts talking about, "the old days," he'll want to go visit the Thirsty Scholar.


After you've been all over campus, it'll be time for him to head home.

He'll tell you that he had a great time.

and chances are if he tells you he had a good time...

he'll want to visit again.

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.
