Everybody's working for the weekend,
Everybody wants a little romance.
Everybody's going off the deep end,
Everybody needs a second chance.

I consider myself to be fairly hardworking.

Whether it be Swing Dance Club, Theme Park Engineering Group, Fundamentals of Engineering for Honors (cursed robot!), Accelerated Calculus, Big Brothers Big Sisters, or any other number of things I do every week, I keep myself pretty busy. There's always work to be done!

But Saturday I took the day off. And it was glorious.

The first order of business was an event called Spring Fling. It's for current high school juniors to get a good first look at Ohio State. There are info sessions and the Spring Game (football game that previews the football team for the upcoming Fall season) and in the morning, a little reception time with breakfast. I went to this as part of Honors Ambassadors (Honors volunteer organization that helps with recruitment). Basically, I got to spend the evening talking to prospective students about why OSU is so awesome: the outstanding and ever-improving academic reputation of the University, the diversity of student life here, the city of Columbus, the opportunity for Study Abroad, and a million other little things. Muchos fun times.

Next up was a chillax afternoon of watching the Spring Game on TV from the comfort of my suite in Lincoln. Lincoln dorms have a living room to share among 10ish people, which I really enjoy. The Spring Game itself was pretty nifty, though I will confess to napping through much of it (hey! I had a long week, give me a break!).

The Saturday ended with a lovely trip to a Columbus Crew game with my roommate Frank and my favorite Emily in the whole wide world. The Crew, Major League Soccer champions, could only manage a tie against the evil Chicago Fire. Still, it was a great game, and thanks to the Student Union and ExploreColumbus I got tickets for only 10 bucks, including a $5 concession voucher. Sweet!

The day was fun, but now it's time to hit the books again. Alas!

Take care,

Rob
