Buckeye

Morning world!

Brutus the Buckeye!

He wants you (;

And apparently he got one more Buckeye!

After a lonnnng college decision journey, somehow I made my final choice. The Ohio State University will be my home for the next 4 years (:

It's crazy how I would have never considered even applying to OSU a few years ago. My goal was to get the heck outtta Ohio. I wanted to be far, far away from cornfields,buckeyes and my high school peers (and preferably by a beach!) But..after considering Pitzer in LA, Indiana University in Bloomington, South Carolina, University of Cincinnati, Belmont and Miami...somehow I found myself at Ohio State. Actually, this  was a really new epiphany for me. I hadn't even been up to the campus till yesterday! But walking onto the campus,I just felt at home. My mom and I attended the GoBuckeye Day for prospective students. I couldnt have asked for a more beautiful day to see the school. Everyone was so welcoming and as big as the campus is, I ran into several people I knew which put me at ease.

We attended a few speeches, walking tours, residence hall tours and the dining hall. Being able to feel like a Buckeye for a day made my decision a lot easier. I could totally see myself living here.

I thought that I wanted to do Journalism as my major, but while submitting my acceptance fees, I had a gut instinct to switch majors. So I now am enrolled as a Psychology major for the Fall of 2012! I plan on double majoring in Psychology and Journalism. Hopefully, I can incorporate my love for learning about others and writing while also helping teens live a healthy life to find the right career choice for me. I know that it takes practice, patience and passion. But I'm so ready to actually start real life.

 Officially a Buckeye (:
