Welcome from the University of Findlay
Alvin Trusty

Come one, come all to the brand new branch of The Odyssey at the University of Findlay. May I be one of the first to welcome you to our little slice of life! My name is Kelsey Nevius, and I am a junior English and Journalism double major here at our quaint University. I've been writing professionally for about two years, and I can't imagine doing anything else. I'm fairly involved on campus as well: I write for our campus newspaper and contribute/edit our literary magazine. I absolutely love what I do: the words on the page, the diverse people involved in the field, and the writing community are all very special things to me.

I'm very excited to begin writing for The Odyssey, and hope that I can both learn from other writers and contribute to this community in any way that I can. I'm extremely hard working, probably more than I should be, and I can't wait to see what challenges will unfold as we further develop our community within The Odyssey. The University of Findlay is a wonderful college, and I hope everyone else can take part in our world and love it as much as we do!

Throughout my time here, I'd love to bring together ideas and opinions from all walks of life. We're all different in some aspect, but I'm hoping our little society can help bring it all together to make sense of our crazy world. Diversity, disagreement, and conversation are the spice of life: I love to hear different opinions and viewpoints on anything and everything, and to figure out how to live life to the fullest. I've learned a lot by writing so far, and I'm sure there's plenty more to come. Come along for the ride: it's going to be good!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
