Hm... so Thursday I only had one class an hour and eighteen minute lecture for biology class, and Friday I just had two lectures :) The end of my week makes me feel happy. Saturday, I had most of the time to myself as most people were at the game. Oh! I also went to Potbelly on Saturday for lunch to use my coupon. (Side story: The first time that I went to a Potbelly was in Chicago with some of my friends. Anyway, I liked it so much that it influenced me to choose OSU over my other schools... ok maybe not. Anyway, I really like Potbelly.) I ordered a chicken salad sandwich with a apple banana yogurt smoothie. The sandwich was really good, but the smoothie definitely wasn't all that great. I could only taste the apple and a little of the yogurt. The 20 or so minute walk was definitely worth it. That night I tried to do some chemistry, but then I realized that I had to read the book/consult the prof's posted answers since I had forgotten everything during the summer apparently.
Then Sunday, I woke up early (for a college kid on a weekend), ate breakfast and then registered for the Miracle Miles 5K run. Atleast it was suppose to be a 5K. Anyway, the race started at noon-ish. Overall it was ok for my first race in a while... ok well maybe that would actually translate to years. I guess I'll try not to start in the middle so much next time. I ended up spending a majority of the first half mile or so trying to find the space to pass people. Then the person riding the lead bike messed up and lead us to run an extra .28km (.1740 miles). I guess I can take comfort in that I could have ran a sub 25 minute run had the race been distanced correctly. I placed 18th in my division (M 15-190)! Woo! For the rest of the day, I basically sat down as much as possible.
That afternoon, I did the most awkward thing possible. So I randomly decided to go to the Undergrad Chinese Student Soc. meeting. Totally didn't know that it's mainly for international students. I felt so awkward there while everyone else communicated in almost any which way in Chinese. Surprisingly, I met one of my Toledo people (like the kabillion of them here). (Side story: we met because we bought Starr's piano from the family.) So I guess that made me feel better. So as with all first meetings, we had to play an "ice-breaker" game. So the game was basically a chain game, where everyone wrote down a fun fact about themselves on a piece of notecard. Then the notecards were randomly redistributed. A person started off and introduced themselves and then read the card description for someone else. This continued for a while until we took a food break. There were some funny stories haha :P During the food game, about half of the people left so we stopped the game. Not much else happened after the game stopped except that then we had to introduced ourselves one by one. Chenglish all the way baby! Oh yeah! lol.
Yeah I think that's about it. I'll write about today's adventure later this week. That way the story will be more complete. I guess I should dedicate an entry to just class sometime soon I guess.
