FOREVER A POLAR BEAR


Everything has been changing so quickly in the world lately that at times it seems overwhelming to keep up with it. This past week all students were required to move out of their college housing and return home. I have seen a lot of seniors post about their senior year getting cut short. Several seniors were angry, sad, and hateful towards the announcement. Although, I truly loved ONU and my experiences I had at ONU, I do not feel angered or upset that I will be finishing classes online. Although it is strange to think that I may not be back on campus for a long time, I know this is not the end. The friendships I have made while at ONU will not end after I graduate. I realize now, growing up means that you will not spend every minute with your best friends. Instead, you spend it growing your career and spending time with family. Your true friends will not disappear because you do not talk to them every day. Even though I will not experience a lot of things seniors typically do; I am happy that I had the opportunity to have all the experiences I did while I was at ONU. I am also happy that ONU has built me into who I am today and that I can always say that I am/was a Polar Bear. I will be forever grateful and humble for my time at ONU. Forever a Polar Bear!

Using Social Media to Find Gluten Free Recipes

Being gluten free can be difficult as it is, so why struggle to find things to make or eat. One of the most challenging things about being gluten free is finding a place to go out to eat at. Therefore, I often decide to stay in and make my own meal. Luckily, there are so many gluten free baking blogs and accounts on Instagram and other site, that it makes making your own meal so much easier. The thing about baking gluten free is that gluten free flour does not have the same elasticity as flour with gluten. When you look at a gluten free recipe you will likely see Xanthium Gum or other additives that create the elasticity, so your bread does not crumble as easily. Recently, companies have started to make gluten free flour that you can replace regular flour with one-to-one. This make a world of difference when you are converting a recipe to gluten free. I follow quite a few gluten free baking accounts on social media. Below I have compiled a list of my favorite accounts to find g

ALUMNI BASKETBALL GAME AT BUCKEYE CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL

On Feb. 24 th , I live-tweeted the boys alumni basketball game. There were two teams playing. Since the players only play for fun, they do not have actual team names. Instead they wore red and white shirts to distinguish themselves. I referred to the teams based on their shirt color throughout my tweets. The game was held at Buckeye Central High School in their gym.   It was a close game for most of the game, with lots of back-and-forth. The final score was 86 to 82, with the red team coming out on top! Both teams did an excellent job and had a great game! Congratulations to the Red Team! You can check out my live tweet by searching #AlumniBBall2020 on twitter or by following me on twitter @Lydia74353175.

TRAINING TO RUN A 5K

Running use to be something I always enjoyed doing. I was in cross-country, track, and always liked the conditioning part of basketball. Even after I was out of sports, I continued to run consistently up until last year. I am not sure why I stopped running I just ended up not running anymore. So, since my classes are all online now, I have no more excuses to not run. In order to keep motivated, I am running with my sister Paige and we set a goal that we want to complete a 5K without walking. Since we do not know when the next 5K will be because of COVID-19, we decided we would have our own 5K on May 1 st . We are training five days a week, Monday through Friday. We also made challenges for different days of the week, so we continue to challenge ourselves. One of our challenges is that we run as far as we can in one direction without walking. Then we are forced to either walk or run all the way back. This is something my coach use to do when I was in cross country, so that we
