Qualifying for OAC!!

-

This past weekend was kind of stressful but fun at the same time. My coach told me a couple of days before the meet that I was just about an inch away from qualifying for Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC) for triple jump. I was already nervous enough when the day came. That day we traveled to Wittenberg for the track meet and there were a lot of teams. But I did get to see some of my old teammates from my high school which was nice to see them. Later, in the meet, I started to triple jump I knew I had to jump further to qualify for OACs. They called my name to jump so I ran down the runway and landed right into the sand! I qualified for OAC with a jump of 30 feet 11 inches which was a personal record (PR) for me too! I was excited knowing that I PR and qualified for OAC. But not only did I qualify for OACs for triple jump so did my three other teammates Rylie, Kenz, and Chloe which is awesome! I am so excited that my teammates and I are all qualified to go to OAC. Once the whole meet was done we got on the bus and drove back home. But, let me tell you once I got back to my room, I got ready for bed and immediately fell to sleep. I didn't realize how tiring it would be just doing one event at a meet until now. I know that the weekend of OAC will have a lot of competition and I am excited to see what is going to happen. But I have a feeling that our ONU track team is going to do amazing things the weekend of OAC!

    I am so proud of you for qualifying for OACs! We just won our first round OAC tournament game and are heading to JCU Thursday night. College sports are exhausting! I remember that I felt like I could play a whole game after finishing one in high school, but that is not the case now. My eyes are half asleep as I am writing this on our bus. Keep up the great work! I cannot wait to hear all about OACs.

    Ammryn!! I'm so excited you qualified for OAC's! That's such a big accomplishment, and you should be excited that all your hard work is paying off. My best advice for you for next week is to have fun, don't worry about how far you're jumping, and focus on being aggressive and competitive!

Easter Weekend!

     Hey, guys welcome back to my blog! I hope everyone had a good Easter this past weekend because I did! Let me tell you what I did this Easter weekend! Friday, I got to see my aunt, uncle and little cousin. They are from Maryland and they just bought a camper so they brought it to Ohio with them so they could go camping and for my family and I to check it out which was pretty nice! Later in the day, we went on an easter egg hunt for my nephew and my cousin. I didn't know that it was the first Easter egg hunt that my town put on which was a great turnout but was pretty crazy when the kids went to get the eggs. I am going to tell you it was like the "Hunger Games." Saturday, my family and I colored goose eggs, duck eggs and chicken eggs for Easter this year which was pretty interesting. We even colored them differently this year by using shaving cream and food coloring, the eggs turn out pretty well! Sunday, we woke up pretty early to find our Easter baskets and do an Ea

ONU Life Week 1

A week ago, I came back early for track, but I can tell you it was weird but nice to be back on campus before everyone else came back to campus. Then a week later class started, my first day back for the second semester at Ohio Northern University was kind of overwhelming from a month break to rolling into the next semester. I have to say my professors wasted no time to start their classes. Right off the back, they had me doing assignments that were literally due next week! But that is not even the most overwhelming thing that happen that week. What made my week was not being able to buy my books. You might say buying your books for class should be easy, well your wrong. I tried buying my books probably three times online and it failed because the server wasn't working so I had to walk to the ONU Bookstore to see if they could help me. But you probably think "Oh she went in and they got it fixed for her right away." Let me tell you I went back to the bookstore probably se

      A couple weeks ago I went to Bellefontaine with my friends. We usually try to plan things every weekend to keep us busy but this time we decided to go to Bellefontaine again! This time on this trip we had a couple of things planned but not a ton so the first thing we got was some hot chocolate because it was a cold day then we went shopping. We looked at antique shops and little small business shops. All the shops that we went to were very cute and we had a lot of fun! I got a shirt at an antique shop so did my friends too! A couple hours later, we went to my friend Maddie's house to have dinner. For dinner, we had chicken alfredo with garlic bread and my friends and I ate all the garlic bread! Later that night, we planned on going to Maddie's sister's play which was a musical called "Into the Woods." The play was amazing with the actors, actresses, and the decorations too! After the play, Maddie's sister was so excited and happy to see us and we were ha
