Living Big in a Small City

Monday, February 6th, 2012 by 

Upon starting at Hastings College, I had embarked on an adventure to a small city in the middle of Nebraska. Being from Omaha, it was a culture shock. No nightlife, lack of entertainment, and minimal chain restaurants. I thought I would hate it. But, spending most of my time on campus taught me how much more important the people are—instead of all the available activities.

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012 by 

The definition of a coach in the Webster’s Dictionary is “one who instructs players in the fundamentals of a competitive sport and directs team strategy.” While I would agree with that 100%…coaching involves so much more.

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012 by

Up until then, each and every high school kid gets a 45-minute recess. I would happily give up a study hall for a 45-minute recess, who wouldn’t?

Monday, January 23rd, 2012 by 

One thousand can either be a lot or a little. It’s a little when you’re burning through Chuck E. Cheese’s game tokens at a fourth grade birthday party and have to share those tokens with a hundred other kids. But this Christmas, a thousand seemed like an endless number.

An interesting topic was brought up last week in English class.

Post-Season Comments

Wednesday, January 11th, 2012 by 

The 2011-2012 football season is over, and I can’t help but feel a little disappointed in our Husker football team. It was another average 9-4 season. I had Nebraska picked to win the B1G this year partly because of bias, but mostly due to the fact that I really thought Nebraska had a strong shot at being Big Ten champions. Such an insane thought that was.

Gluten Free

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012 by 

I’ve been gluten free for one week now and I have one more to go. This two week experiment of gluten free eating was my boyfriend’s idea. He has quite a few family members that have gluten intolerance so he finally decided to try it to see if he could notice a difference. And being the good girlfriend that I am, I said I’d to it too.
