Busy Weekends vs. Lazy Weekends

For me, I feel like there are only two kinds of weekends when I'm at college: busy weekends and lazy weekends. Obviously busy weekends are exactly how they sound, you feel like you constantly have to be somewhere or have something to do. Lazy weekends are the opposite, they're not necessarily boring but you have nothing that you need to do, which is nice. Most of my weekends this semester have been busy, but this weekend, I finally had a lazy weekend.

There was only one thing that I had to do all weekend and that was work the men's soccer game on Saturday afternoon. After the game, I came back to my apartment to write the men's and women's soccer recaps, then I laid on the couch watching "Friends" the rest of the afternoon. For supper, my roommate and I ordered a pizza from Viva Maria's, which we think is the best pizza place in Ada. After eating, I went to my friend's dorm to hang out with her since I hadn't seen her all day.

Sunday morning, I woke up early to go to Columbus with my friends. One of my friends had test-driven a Tesla overnight because he wants to buy one, so we rode to Columbus with him to take it back, which I didn't originally plan to do. After we dropped it off, we got brunch at the restaurant Scrambler's, then did some shopping at Easton. I didn't buy anything but it was nice to walk around with them. After we got back to campus, we went to Lima to watch the new movie "We Live in Time." It was a really good movie but it was also very sad. I'm not much of a crier, so you know it was sad when I'm sobbing at the end of it!

Overall, it was a very relaxing weekend. Many people may like having busy weekends with a lot of plans but I would rather have a lazy weekend. I like not having much planned and just going with the flow, so this weekend was perfect for me. Even if I had done nothing but sit in my dorm all weekend, I would have enjoyed it!

    Sounds like an unexpected blast of a weekend! I bet that test drive blew your mind with how far technology has come in the recent years. I definitely agree that a lazy weekend is my go to as I am a certified homebody but I love making spontaneous plans with friends, those are the best memories!

    I completely relate to these types of weekends. It sounds like you were able to get the recharge you needed to continue pushing through this semester. I can't wait to be able to take my lazy weekend coming up.

Halloweekend!

Image
I had been looking forward to this weekend for a while and it finally came, Halloweekend! Halloween isn't my favorite holiday but I still love being able to dress up and have fun. One of my favorite parts about Halloween is seeing everyone else's costumes, because some people come up with funny ones. This year, my friend and I decided to go as Abraham Lincoln and John Wilkes Boothe! I saw the idea on TikTok last year, so we have had this planned for a year now. I think it's so funny, so I have been looking forward to this weekend for a long time! My weekend started off slow on Friday night, I just hung out in my apartment with my friend and watched some movies. Saturday, I worked the men's soccer game. It was a very exciting game because it was close the whole time but we scored with just a minute left to win! And the same guy scored all three of our goals for a hat trick, so it was really cool! After the game, I wrote the game recap for the men's and women's ga...

Thanksgiving Break

Image
I feel like I have been going nonstop since the start of the semester, so Thanksgiving break was a much-needed time to relax and not worry about classes or work for a while! Over the break, I was able to travel to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina with my friend, Kennedy, and her dad, Tim, to visit Tim's aunt and uncle, Joyce and Jerry. I also went to Hilton Head with her over spring break last semester, so it was nice to go back! Tuesday, we spent the whole day driving. We left at 6 a.m. and didn't get to their house until 9 p.m. because there was a lot of traffic. When we got there, Joyce had made us chicken noodle soup and grilled cheese, so we caught up with them while we were eating. Since we woke up early that morning and had spent all day in the car, I slept so good that night and didn't wake up until 10:30 Wednesday morning. Wednesday after we got ready, we rode their bikes to Duck Donuts, which has the best donuts I've ever had. I'm not a huge fan of donut...

A Family-Filled Weekend

Image
This weekend was much needed, not only because I got a break from classes and homework but also because I was able to see family that I haven't seen in a long time! I am one of the youngest on both sides of my family, so many of my aunts, uncles and cousins have moved away from the area, so it's always nice when we can get together again! My weekend started off busy, having to work both Friday and Saturday. Friday night, I worked the home women's basketball game, which was the first of the season. Basketball is my favorite sport, so I'm glad it's finally basketball season again! ONU won 77-49, so it was a great game to work! After the game, my roommate and I watched a couple episodes of "Friends" before calling it a night. Saturday afternoon I worked the women's soccer OAC Finals game. ONU won, which means they are OAC Champions and have an automatic bid into the NCAA III Tournament! The men's soccer team didn't earn an automatic bid into the N...
