Thanksgiving Break

    This is our last week of classes here at Ohio Northern before we go on Thanksgiving break for a full week. Playing basketball my whole life, I have never been able to enjoy a full Thanksgiving or Christmas break but I need this break badly this year. I don't say that in a bad way, but I have only been able to go home for a total of four days this entire school year. I will only be home for three days on Thanksgiving, but I am going to cherish every second of it. 

    I have enjoyed my senior year a ton so far, but there have been stressful times throughout, just like every year. Thanksgiving is always one of my favorite times of the year, especially since I started college. I love coming home to all my family and friends and having everyone together in one room. Being at college, I rarely get to see my family and friends. I am not sure what we will do this year, but I am always excited to see what it brings. Of course, food is one of my favorite parts also. I can always count on my mother to make some fantastic food for all of us. 

    If you are struggling right now with seasonal depression, just keep pushing. The semester is close to an end, and Christmas is quickly approaching!

  1. Hi Adam! I remember my basketball days and not being able to enjoy Thanksgiving break fully. I also love Thanksgiving because I get to see my family that I only get to see a few times a year. Good Luck with all of your final senior activities and basketball season!

  2. Adam, I can understand how you feel. I see most of my family weekly, but my brother is coming home from Florida for the week and I can't wait to see him and catch up with the rest of my family. Enjoy your break!

Marketing Campaigns

    We can use many things in the social media world to our advantage, including social media marketing campaigns. In short, it is a campaign used to target an audience and advance your business and company in the long-run. It can also come from actions that can lead to influencers or audience to certain types of things. These campaigns can be most affective just like a lot of other things and that is by setting your goals and audience before you start your campaign.      You need to know where you want your campaign located at and what you want it to do. For example, social media is the main spot but you can also have it in other spots that can reach awareness also. Having your target audience is important, but you also want to know what the people in your target audience are interested with. For example, the social media apps that they are most active on, older people are more active on Facebook versus Snapchat, so it is important to know that. Also, setting a...

College Football Playoffs

     In 2014, college football finally introduced the idea we had been waiting on, The College Football Playoffs. This meant that instead of only two teams getting a chance at the national championship, it would know be four teams. Everyone that enjoys college football was very happy when this was announced.       The first year it was introduced, the final four teams happened to be Ohio State, Oregon, Alabama, and Florida State. In the first round, Oregon defeated Florida State and Ohio State defeated Alabama in an instant classic. This meant it would end up being Oregon versus Ohio State in the championship game. Ohio State went on to defeat Oregon by a score of 42-20 and celebrated winning the first ever college football national championship. I still remember Ohio State winning this game and I lost my mind. I thought it was awesome to see Ohio State win the national championship, but especially with it being the first year of the playoffs. ] ...

Back on Campus

    After a much needed time off from athletics and academics, it is great to be back on campus. I was very thrilled to go home for a couple of long days. I wasn't only happy to go home because it was first time home in a month, but also because it will be last time home till Thanksgiving. We start our first week of practice this Friday and once that starts it is almost impossible to go home, so I made sure to enjoy my break.             I have always cherished my time I get when I am back home because you never know what can happen and when it could be your last time. That sounds very straight-forward but is the reality of life. As I stated, we start our basketball season this week and I am beyond focused and ready to start my third year on the basketball court. I am especially excited this year because I know the potential this team has this season especially since we are a lot older and more experienced now.      In the...
