#5: Communicate with each other exclusively through John Mulaney impressions.

In This Article:


1. Watch "Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior"

Here is the longest fight scene you'll ever watch in your life (but also the best, obviously).

2. Walk a total of three miles up and down The Short North for literally no reason

But we did get to take the funky photo you see at the top.

3. Spend three hours and buckets of blood, sweat, and tears trying to assemble our LED strip lights and actually get them to work

4. Try out Peace Tea, an iced tea available at the best dining location on campus, Marketplace on Neil

It is very good and we are very obsessed.

5. Communicate with each other exclusively through John Mulaney impressions

6. Host two-person dance parties while blasting AJR and setting our LED strip lights to "seven color strobe flash"

Yes, I know you were worried, but we did finally get them working.

7. Go to Target

Don't worry, our masks were on, because masks do actually help stop the spread of viral infection, in case you are one of those people out there who didn't know.

8. Buy iced coffee at the Starbucks inside Target

See the dance party listed at #6.

9. Bring bath towels out to The Oval at 11 p.m. to lay on while we try to watch Jump In with a shoddy internet connection for 30 minutes, at which point our Sloopy's orders were ready and we went back inside

10. Take a girls' trip to pick up a prescription I accidentally sent to a CVS two miles away

11. Lay in bed for hours complaining about classes starting and coping by sending each other memes

This one still makes us laugh a week after we saw it.

12. Watch "Another Cinderella Story" and laugh the most at Jane Lynch's lines, every single one of which is gold

Here is our favorite scene (just the first 27 seconds).

13. Inspire endless amounts of content for our respective Twitter feeds and private stories on Snapchat

Because I told her I would plug it: follow Sarah on Twitter at @DruhanSarah.

14. Get Jeni's Ice Cream delivered through Postmates for a total of $40

But! The delivery was free.

15. Watch "Looks That Kill," a movie about a guy who has to wear bandages around his face all the time because he is just so gosh darn handsome he kills anyone who looks his way

16. Take out our always-full garbage full of iced coffee cups, Sloopy's takeout containers, and cans upon cans of Peace Tea

Don't worry, the Peace Tea went in the recycling.

17. And throughout it all, the ups and downs, the movies and the Peace Teas, we were truly Together as Buckeyes

1. Nails done hair done everything did / Oh you fancy huh

You're pretty much feeling yourself. New haircut, clothes, shoes, everything. New year, new you, right? You're ready for this semester to kick off.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Cambio

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
