Yes, me, bookish, theatre kid me grew up in a very rural, very hilly, and kind of wonderful part of eastern Ohio.
Being a Buckeye, I am of course an Ohio State fan. I've never attended OSU- my degree will be coming from a different, but equally huge, university. However, as a rule, those of us born in Ohio automatically becomes an Ohio State fan. It's like a birthright. I don't even have a shirt for the university I have attended for the past five years- but I have tons of Ohio State garb.
That's just how the scarlet and grey rolls.
Anyway- today was THE Championship game. For those of you not versed in college sports lore, the Ohio State v. Michigan Championship game is arguably THE BEST rivalry in college sports, and in football, really. It's intense. And awesome. I love when I can be back home during the game because everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, is watching.
Today, Ohio State finished an undefeated regular season, with a victory of 26-21 over Michigan. I'm far from Ohio, but I always feel close to home when my cousins and brothers and I all bond via facebook status updates. It seems ridiculous, but sometimes you have to make do.
I'm back at Coffee Bean studying, because I've managed to procrastinate EVEN MORE. I don't even KNOW how this was possible. So I got myself a scarlet colored tea.
Take the girl from the farm, but she will forever be a Buckeye.
OH-- !!!!!
