Christmas Break

Christmas Break is so close I can touch it!! Being a college student versus a high school student, the break is longer and the stress of homework is not looming over us. The needed break is felt even more as a college student. 
This semester, I do not have any exams, but I did have papers and projects to finish! I am very excited for Christmas Break as it will be a great time both relaxing and spending time with friends and family. Andrea and I’s birthday is the 20th, so we will start to break by celebrating turning 19. On Christmas Eve, I will be at my church for most of the evening. Being a preacher’s kid, my favorite memories are on Christmas Eve. My family and church staff order pizza between the services and Andrea and I are anxiously awaiting to get our new pajamas on!  As a family, we will celebrate Christmas at our house this year! There isn’t anything specific that I have asked Santa this year but my mom, sister and I are looking at two puggles to get! We shall see how that all plays out.  My mom’s birthday is soon to follow on the 26th. We celebrate the new year with family friends and watch football!
In the first week of 2020, Andrea and I will be spending it in Florida with our grandparents! I am looking forward to getting a tan and enjoying the warm weather!

Do you have exams before the break? What do you plan to do on Christmas Break? Are there any family traditions that you partake in?

    I'm also so excited for Christmas break. It's crazy that we only have a day and a half left before break. I have two finals, but they are both take home so I will be taking them in Chillicothe instead of Ada. Christmas break is pretty jam packed already with work, Christmas activities and my friends and I are also going to Florida the first week of January. I am so excited but I already know this break is going to go by so fast.

    I (thankfully) only have two finals next week but can't wait to get home for the three weeks of break! I'm planning on working just about everyday while I'm home in order to make some money for next semester, and spending the outside time with my best friend from home Ally (yes we have the same name haha), my parents and my cat. Overall, time flies here at ONU and I can't wait to have a few weeks to chill!

Can I be Klondike?

Being Klondike, the mascot here at Ohio Northern, is a big deal! It is a huge reveal when the persons who are Klondike graduate or end their Klondike careers. I have heard and have seen many pictures of the head reveal, and it is an exciting event for everyone. I happen to have a background as a mascot, and the hope to be Klondike one day is there. In my senior year of high school, no one was able to be our high school's mascot, Sparty the Spartan. There was one basketball game, and the opposing school had brought their mascot the Colt. I turned to my sister and our best friend Grace and said where's Sparty? I then ran over to my principal, who is a dear family friend to ask where Sparty was and that I wanted to be Sparty for the game. He laughed, and we went to get the outfit. This was a spur of the moment, but knowing how fun I am, this wasn't surprising to many. Let me preface that the costume had just been dry cleaned, and I am 5'3. The outfit was a little bit b...

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

  For my final blog post, I had this big thank you letter written to Aggie but accidentally deleted it. So now I am going to write something a little bit more exciting! The holidays!!! December has a lot of fun days coming up!!   For starters it is Christmastime so listening to Christmas music is one of my favorite things to do in the car and studying for exams. During December there are a few other celebrations. My twin, Andrea and I are celebrating our 21 st birthday on Dec.20 and my mom’s birthday is Dec.26! Those will be great celebrations with a lot of adult beverages.   I am a huge fan of traditions or yearly events especially during the holiday season.One of the things my family does is drive around the neighborhood or a light display and see all the pretty lights and set ups. I went with Zach and a couple of friends this past weekend to the Upper Sandusky lights! They did not disappoint. I am looking forward to seeing new light displays in our new neighborhoo...

So Long Spooky Season

    So Long Spooky Season             This past weekend was Halloween!! Friday night was a girls night! A group of friends and I went to two events on campus. The first was called A Haunted Walk sponsored by the student planning committee (SPC). This occurred out by the sand volleyball courts and we walked along the green monsters with spooky stores shared along the way. It was a good event, I would have loved to see it even more interactive but happy it was short as it was cold and rainy. The second event was Haunted Hill Sponsored by a Fraternity and History group on campus. It was a little spooky if I’m being honest. Friday night was a great time!             On Saturday My boyfriend Zach and I had a great time! We worked Admissions in the morning, then I went to the ONU volleyball game (which ONU won) and then I took a nap. Zach was on call so he stayed in his ...
