Former Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz tweeted out Monday evening directly at the Boston Globe newspaper simply putting, “@BostonGlobe.” This was enough for Red Sox fans and the rest of the Internet to go into a panic thinking up every possible scenario.


Ortiz plainly said nothing at all, but it was directed toward the Boston Globe. Social media users hyped up the idea of him possibly coming out of retirement. The Boston Globe tweeted the former slugger poking fun at the situation.



The Boston Globe tweeted again almost an hour later to get an update, but was still left with no response.



The rest of Twitter took over after this, with various responses and ideas to the mysterious tweet.


Some users mentioned directly for the story.



This user reacted by channeling their inner Will Hunting trying to decipher Ortiz's tweet.



Instead of taking the strategic Will Hunting way of figuring out the tweet, he just panicked.



Some took a more subtle approach waiting patiently. No matter how long.




The sports radio morning show Toucher and Rich out of Boston agreed with the tweet. Agreed to what exactly, who knows.



This user brought to light how Michael Jordan came out of retirement. Makes you wonder..



The most logical tweet of them all goes to this guy.


Who really knows what Ortiz meant when he sent out the tweet. Realistically thinking, he probably has no idea it even happened. He could have accidently sent out a draft, or was searching for the Boston Globe in what he presumed was the search bar, but ended up tweeting the masses instead.

Ortiz most likely will not come out of retirement. However, this has not yet been addressed by him or the Red Sox management. That being said, speculation continues and fans are left to ponder.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
