Back to School and Football

     After a long 3 months, I finally got to move back to campus. It's very unusual for me to actually want to move back to school, but I was really excited to come back this year. There are a couple of reasons why I think I was so excited to move back to school this year. I got to see my friends again that I hadn't seen in forever. I also got to come back and play football again which I have been missing all summer. It took me a couple days to get back into the routine of school and football, but now that I have adjusted again I am having a lot of fun. I'm not going to lie, I got very bored at home with just working all day every day, so coming back to school was a really good change of pace for me. As much as I don't like the school aspect of moving back in, I love getting to see my friends every day. Whenever I am going through something I know that I have so many friends that have my back if I need anything because they are going through some of the same issues. I personally think I have the best friends ever. I can be myself around them and they accept me for who I am. I can truly be myself around them and I have so much fun with them. Also, football has been a huge part of my life these last 2 years on campus and I am so excited to be able to continue to play the game I love with the people that I love the most. To sum it up, I am really excited to be back on campus.

  1. Hey Noah, I loved when you mentioned the change of pace part, I totally agree. It has been hard to re-adjust my routine, but it is starting to get better. Good luck this year academically, and on the field!

Coming to an End

 If you are following the football team and our season, you know that this is the season's last week and last game. I am not going to lie, it has been a very long season for us. We are currently 2-7 which is very unfamiliar territory for many players on our team. In high school, I never had a season with more than 3 losses, so this has been relatively different for me.  Even though our record doesn't show it, this has been the closest team that I have been a part of since coming to campus three years ago. In the future, that is what we are all going to remember. We are going to remember the relationships that we formed and that are going to last for the rest of our lives.  Some of the seniors that are graduating have been some of my best friends for the last three years. I actually live with two seniors that are graduating now. As this week has gone on and we continue to do events for senior week, it has gotten to be very emotional. I still don't think it has hit me that so

Bounce Back

The game on Saturday was not fun. If you don't already know we got upset very badly at Musky. I don't think anyone on the team really expected us to lose this game. We had an iffy week of practice, but I don't think anyone really predicted that we would end up losing the game. In my personal opinion, I thought that we were the better team with more talented players, but we just didn't get it done. I felt embarrassed and upset after this game. I was in pure shock. I had a long bus ride home to think about how the game went as a whole and what we exactly did right and wrong. I did a lot of soul searching on the way home and I realized that I have to be better and it starts now.  What is most important now is to bounce back. There is no point in dwelling on this game anymore. There is nothing that we can do about it anymore so we shouldn't think about it. The only thing that we as a team can do is to bounce back. It all starts during practice. Everyone knows the saying

Much Needed Break

 Last week we students here at Ohio Northern University finally got our Thanksgiving break. I talked to many of my friends and classmates around campus about the break and they all agreed with me that this break was very much needed. It has been a long semester for many of us and the break gave us time to recharge and get ready to get through these last 3 weeks of school and do well on our finals before we get a month off for Christmas break. I did many things that helped me relax and recharge over break. The most important thing that I did was SLEEP. It was very nice not having to wake up at 8 am and attend a class. Getting the opportunity to sleep in my own bed and sleep in was so refreshing. It was also good to see some friends and connect with people from back home that I haven't seen in a while. On Friday, I hung out with some of my childhood best friends from home and it was awesome to see them. I haven't seen them in forever and it was great to catch up. On Saturday, I g
