You Know You're A Medina Bee If...
MHSTV Ohio

Ah, Medina High School. Between the dress code and the amazing school lunches (yes, our school lunches were amazing), every student at MHS survived their high school careers with days they loved and days they hated.

If you graduated a Battling Bee, you'll understand.

1. Hashtag #WeRMedina is the only hashtag that ever mattered to you.

Fight in the cafeteria? #WeRMedina. Snow day? #WeRMedina.

2. You wore the same jeans every day because wearing anything else was totally prohibited.

All the teachers were allowed to wear cute little dresses and skirts, but God forbid a boy be distracted by your exposed knees from your athletic shorts.

3. You had to replace a tire from all the potholes in the MHS parking lot.

Leaving school every day like...


4. Speaking of Parking Lots, you’ve gotten a warning from the Rent-a-Cop about getting towed.

You parked in someone else’s assigned spot because someone parked in yours because someone parked in theirs.

5. You still dream of Thursday’s Cheesy Dipper day and Popcorn Chicken Bowl Friday.

6. You’ve gotten sick from eating too many Cheesy Dippers.

7. You know what a Cheesy Dipper is.

And no, we aren't talking about these...

8. You still accidentally yell “Bees” at the end of the National Anthem.

The land of the free and the home of the BEES.

9. You tell someone you went to Medina and they say, “Where is that?”

But trying to explain where Medina even is just straight up confuses the person.

"It's like kind of by Akron, kind of not. 45 minutes south of Clevelandish, but not really."

10. You’re used to a football team losing, because you attended football games faithfully even though you’ve never seen them win.

It was worth the $6 and the freezing cold, though. Kind of.

11. You got yelled at for standing in the front row of the Swarm because you weren’t a senior.

12. On graduation day, you didn’t know who 75 percent of the students that walked across the stage were, since there were 600 of you.

"I thought they were a junior!" "They still go here?"

13. You’re a beast at getting through crowded places, because getting from class to class was like walking through a can of sardines.

House 1 to House 3 in four minutes? No problem.

14. You knew it was going to be a good day when you walked in to see Mr. Gorski subbing for your teacher.

His war stories never got old.

15. You took your first Breathalyzer test at the age of 15 because it was required at all school dances.

And they only test every fifth person, so all your friends got skipped but you got stuck back while they all got let in.

16. And while you were at the dance, you got yelled at because your dancing was too 'dirty.'

17. But those couples that made out in the hallway like they hadn't seen each other in a year never got a word said to them.

YOU SAW EACH OTHER 50 MINUTES AGO.

18. Mr. Farson.

Enough said.

19. Whenever you hear mention of a “HUB” you’re flooded with memories of picking up your forgotten lunches.

Shoutout to the HUB Ladies.

20. You still call Brunswick “Brunstucky” even though you’re a senior in college.

Sorry, not sorry.

21. Make it a great day, Medina.

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.
