OSU!

So I've been at OSU for eight days now (tonight will be the 9th night, move in at night). So I thought that some things are worth writing about now. OWL Move-in really fast. I basically didn't do anything, everyone else did everything for me. First night there was a 9:00 meeting basically as soon as I got there. That night I feel asleep quite quickly (not sure whether that's good or bad). The next couple of days I went to a lot of meetings for OWL and made some friends. Things were kind of boring though since there weren't that many people. Then on Sunday everyone else moved in and things started to get better.

Monday... first we had Convocation. See pictures attached I guess. It was long ish and boring. But I guess I proved that the world really is small. I met one of my friends from Miami Multicultural camp. Well I guess it's not that weird, since we're all very similar, but I thought it was cool though. Anyway, back to Convocation. So at first we were just listening to the speeches and such, blah blah blah... and then a speaker comes up and says, " and now we have a special speaker." At first I wasn't too excited until she started to give the speaker's background. So now I can really say, I've heard John Glenn talk. So cool!

Yeah that's him at the podium. You can see it more clearly on screen kind of.
After Convocation we walked through Ohio Stadium. First time for me, I guess. Took some pictures here too, lol. It was cool to see it from the bottom instead of in the stands where I wouldn't be anyway since I don't have pictures.

Then I sent to the Invovlement Fair. That was so crazy. There were so many clubs (approximately 800 or so) and so many people (like almost all of the freshman/1st year students). Apparently college students, atleast at OSU people like to go by "rank" as in how many years of credit you have. Anyway, I signed up for so many Asian/Chinese clubs, running club, ping pong club, and a pre-med honorary. I'm sure that I also signed up for other things that I forgot about.

So Wednesday I had my first official day of school. The survey class, basically a post-orientation class where they teach you how to do scheduling, picking a major, and etc, was really laid back and easy. Chem was definitely something else. We jumped directly into solubility. Wow, I was so blown away. What we did in 48 minutes was what I did in 1 week in AP. Ah! The lab in the afternoon was a titration lab. It shouldn't have been that hard, but it still took me 3 hours somehow. So yeah... English was a lot less scary than Chem. I guess that's good. Thusrday, I had Bio lecture and that was about it. Bio wasn't that scary but I think that was because it was ecology. Hm... Other than that, nothing else really for now.

Oh yeah, just remembered. I like the food plan here at OSU, I can get food for all three meals, and I can get so much for one swipe, even if it's not the traditiona buffect commons. While they don't always taste the best, it's definitely enought to get by and more. Ok I think that's all for now.
