If Your Alumni Dad Comes to Visit OSU...

If Your Alumni Dad comes to visit OSU...

He's going to want to see campus. When you start walking around, however, he's going to get lost.

When he gets lost, you're going to have to remind him that it's been a few years since he's been at school.

You'll continue walking and at least he'll remember Mirror Lake.

He'll be jealous of all the new improvements that OSU's added recently.

When he starts ranting about new things, he'll definitely want to see the RPAC.

He'll want to work out and play tennis, and run the track, and take a class, and...

you'll have to distract him to get him back on track.

By the time you get to the Oval, he's probably going to be hungry. He'll ask you to go to Sloopy's.

He'll be overwhelmed by how big and loud the Student Union can be, so you'll have to get in and out pretty fast.

When he's finished eating, he'll probably want dessert. So he'll ask to get Buckeye Donuts.

On your way down High Street, he'll point out how different everything is again.

He'll get confused by the giant bull's head on one of the buildings and you'll have to explain the existence of Bulls to him.

When he hears about Bulls, he'll probably want to dance.

He will start "dad dancing" in the street. You'll have to pretend that you don't know him until you get to Buckeye Donuts.

Once you get a donut, he'll probably get tired and want to relax back at your place.

When you get back to your dorm/apartment, he'll remember how small your living space is.

He'll want to talk about your life at school and reminisce about, "the old days."

When he starts talking about, "the old days," he'll want to go visit the Thirsty Scholar.


After you've been all over campus, it'll be time for him to head home.

He'll tell you that he had a great time.

and chances are if he tells you he had a good time...

he'll want to visit again.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
