Undergraduate / 'it's electrifying' - Why I want to go to OSU [4]
Throughout my life, I've watched our scarlet and gray flag on the front porch endure the scorching heat of the summer, countless rainstorms, and icy mid-winter blizzards. I've been a part of the magic of yelling "O-H" and complete strangers shouting "I-O". I've experienced how all of Columbus buzzes with OSU pride and hope of another win on game day.
There's an inexplicable connection that comes with being a part of this amazing university; it's electrifying. I've tasted it myself in a Buckeye Stadium hotdog at my first game. As the whole stadium bounced in scarlet and gray, I had a giant grin from ear to ear, bouncing along in my jersey, buckeye beads, and war paint. I knew, dripping ketchup from my hotdog and recklessly cheering with everyone else, that The Ohio State University is where I belong.
The idea of wanting to attend this university spread like wildfire through my mind. I became captivated with the endless possible opportunities that await me. My passion lies with the School of Medicine, but I want to expand my interests with a philosophy class or two and maybe explore a course on anthropology. I want to spend sunny afternoons sprawled out on the oval thinking about which club I want to try out next or which new place I'm going to try for dinner that night with my BuckID in hand.
This is more than just a consideration for me. I want to be an official part of it all because I'm an explorer, a city girl, a life-long fan, and hopefully a student at The Ohio State University.
