Boomer Sooner!

The ABC's Of The University Of Oklahoma
University of Oklahoma

There is no place on the Earth like the University of Oklahoma. A majority of us are Sooner born and Sooner bred, but when we all die we will be Sooner dead. There is only one Oklahoma, and I am so glad that I get the chance to be a student at this university. The ABC's of the University of Oklahoma are things that all of my fellow Sooners can relate to.

A is for our athletics because nobody else can even compare.

B is for Boomer!

C is for Campus Corner.

D is for DBo (aka President David Boren).

E is for education because technically we are here to get a degree.

F is for Fuzzy's at Campus Corner; fishbowl anyone?

G is for Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communication.

H is for Hield, as in Buddy Hield. He might have graduated, but we still love him.

I is for intramural sports that many students participate in.

J is for Julie Siberts, the first female drum major for the Pride of Oklahoma (Who run the world? Definitely girls.)

K is for the kids that we support through CAC's official philanthropy, Soonerthon.

L is for Lon Kruger our head basketball coach.

M is for (National) Merrit Scholars (DBo's pride and joy).

N is for no parking (literally anywhere on campus).

O is for O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A!

P is for the Pride of Oklahoma.

Q is for all of the quiet hours we spend at the Biz (aka the library for those who do not go to OU).

R is for Rah Oklahoma, Rah Oklahoma, Rah Oklahoma, O-K-U!

S is for Sooner!

T is for Thursday nights at Seven's.

U is for the best university on the planet, aka the University of Oklahoma.

V is for victory because we have 32 national championships.

W is for Dede Westbrook, our beloved wide receiver.

X is for all of the X words I do not know, but hey our many National Mert Scholars probably know all of them.

Y is for my fellow Okies that say "y'all."

Z is for I do not know what words start with Z, but hey last year we had two Heisman finalists (Baker Mayfield and Dede Westbrook). What about you?

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
