Warm Weather...Finally!!

-

             One thing about me, I absolutely hate, hate, HATE, the cold. I am meant to live where it is warm, I am not meant to live in Ohio. If I could never see snow again in my life, I would be so incredibly ecstatic. My mood is very dependent on the weather – when the weather is nice, I am nice and vice versa.


            Since the weather has been so nice the past few days, this week at ONU has been so much fun. My roommate, Remi, and I have been laying outside by the pond, soaking up the sun and doing homework. Although, neither of us seem to get far in any homework because we always end up closing our laptops and talking. Anyway, it is very refreshing to be able to enjoy the warmth and get some vitamin D after surviving winter in Ohio.

            The sunshine makes me eager for summer and over all things school. I don’t know what it is, but the past two weeks have felt like I’ve been drowning in schoolwork. Anytime my friends text me and ask what I am doing, I’m sitting at my desk studying or doing assignments. Needless to say, I am itching for summer break. Remi and I talk about how it feels like we have ‘senioritis’, but we’re only sophomores so I’m terrified of what it’s going to be like in two years. I’m just thankful we had four-day weeks the past two weeks because of the eclipse and honors day. I am hoping the rest of April goes by as quickly as possible, because in my mind once the calendar hits May, it’s summer.

    I totally agree with the weather, I've always hated the cold even though I've always lived in Ohio. I can also agree it makes me think about summer. It just makes me want school to be over with for this year so I agree that the last month won't be easy.

    Once the sun comes out there's no doing work, it's just like a law of the universe! It's so hard to motivate yourself to do schoolwork when the weather is so nice out! Feeling like you have senioritis as a sophomore is so relatable though especially when there's so much work to do!

Social Media Impact

      Social media is a widely used tool today and is constantly continuing to change and develop. With how prominent social media is today in society, it's crazy to think about how there was a time before it, or even just how the use of it has changed from when it was first introduced.     Social media has always been used to connect people and network in a way. When platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram first came out many people used it to stay connected to those around them and in their community such as family and friends. While many people still do use social media for this, it also is used now to connect people to employers, companies/businesses, products, etc.       It has even become a tool in many workplaces and now something that is being studied and taught in some universities. Social media has impacted different lines of work and is used daily, such as in careers in marketing and public relations. It has ch...

ONU's Social Media Workshop

               On Friday, March 22, Ohio Northern University’s PRSSA hosted its annual Social Media Workshop. The day started with hearing from the keynote speaker before breaking to begin the first session of the workshop. The workshop was split into four blocks, with each session having two speakers presenting simultaneously – one speaker would be in the Activities Room while the other in the Bear Cave.              Amy Hertsenberg, the keynote speaker, gave what I found to be one of the most interesting presentations. She discussed all things AI – the powers of AI, how she uses it as a tool in her work, how we can use it, how it is changing the way we work, etc. Hertsenberg puts an emphasis on the idea of ‘hyper-personalization’ using AI technology throughout her presentation. This idea stems from the fact that AI has changed the way we gather information of a customer base. Thi...

Is It Summer Yet?

                         As the final weeks of the spring semester drag on, the boredom of endless assignments and exams has me anxiously waiting for summer freedom. The thought of waking up without the burden of early classes, tedious homework and stressful deadlines becomes an increasingly tempting fantasy. I can almost taste the refreshing lemonade, feel the warm sun on my face and hear the laughter of my friends as we enjoy the long, lazy days. The thought of trading textbooks for beach reads, pencils for pool floats and classrooms for backyard barbecues fills me with excitement. Although I know there are still a few weeks, my mind has already wandered to the carefree bliss that awaits on the other side.                Each day, I find myself counting down the few weeks that remain until the glorious summer break. The relentless grind of classes, assignments and ...
