1. Watch "Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior"

Here is the longest fight scene you'll ever watch in your life (but also the best, obviously).

2. Walk a total of three miles up and down The Short North for literally no reason

But we did get to take the funky photo you see at the top.

3. Spend three hours and buckets of blood, sweat, and tears trying to assemble our LED strip lights and actually get them to work

4. Try out Peace Tea, an iced tea available at the best dining location on campus, Marketplace on Neil

It is very good and we are very obsessed.

5. Communicate with each other exclusively through John Mulaney impressions

6. Host two-person dance parties while blasting AJR and setting our LED strip lights to "seven color strobe flash"

Yes, I know you were worried, but we did finally get them working.

7. Go to Target

Don't worry, our masks were on, because masks do actually help stop the spread of viral infection, in case you are one of those people out there who didn't know.

8. Buy iced coffee at the Starbucks inside Target

See the dance party listed at #6.

9. Bring bath towels out to The Oval at 11 p.m. to lay on while we try to watch Jump In with a shoddy internet connection for 30 minutes, at which point our Sloopy's orders were ready and we went back inside

10. Take a girls' trip to pick up a prescription I accidentally sent to a CVS two miles away

11. Lay in bed for hours complaining about classes starting and coping by sending each other memes

This one still makes us laugh a week after we saw it.

12. Watch "Another Cinderella Story" and laugh the most at Jane Lynch's lines, every single one of which is gold

Here is our favorite scene (just the first 27 seconds).

13. Inspire endless amounts of content for our respective Twitter feeds and private stories on Snapchat

Because I told her I would plug it: follow Sarah on Twitter at @DruhanSarah.

14. Get Jeni's Ice Cream delivered through Postmates for a total of $40

But! The delivery was free.

15. Watch "Looks That Kill," a movie about a guy who has to wear bandages around his face all the time because he is just so gosh darn handsome he kills anyone who looks his way

16. Take out our always-full garbage full of iced coffee cups, Sloopy's takeout containers, and cans upon cans of Peace Tea

Don't worry, the Peace Tea went in the recycling.

17. And throughout it all, the ups and downs, the movies and the Peace Teas, we were truly Together as Buckeyes

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

WP content

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.
