Mascot Day @ The Statehouse

Yesterday I traveled to the Ohio Statehouse for Mascot day. Honestly, before we left, I thought it was going to be a long day and I was just going to be bored the whole time, but I was wrong.

When I heard about mascot day, I was very confused. I didn't know it was even a thing. But I guess once a year the state government invites the independent college mascots to the statehouse to meet the people working for the state of Ohio, and this year they invited the cheerleaders too. Not knowing what it was, I decided to take the risk and go. (I mean I did get out of my classes for it so how bad could it really be?). I ended up having a blast.

We all went into one room in the statehouse and as the legislatures walked by, we took pictures. But in between the pictures, we got to watch the mascots interact with each other and that was hilarious. Everyone was being so silly and messing with each other. By the end of the two hours, we were teaching the mascot for Mount Vernon Nazarene and Klondike a popular TikTok.

After mascot day was over, a few of us cheerleaders starting birding around Columbus. Bird is an app you download and it's a lot like Uber, but you get around on motor scooters. You start a ride on the app, then you can drive your motor scooter around as long as you want and it's only like $0.30 per minute. We rode around a couple blocks, got Starbucks then made it back to the car. After we left, we got Cane's on OSU's campus then headed home.

I'm hoping they ask the cheerleaders to join again next year. I can assure you I will be the first person to sign up to go.

Snapchat

I remember when I first downloaded Snapchat. I remember thinking "I have to look presentable every day now because people will actually see what I look like every day." For everyone that doesn't know, Snapchat is a social media app that started at just a way to communicate by sending pictures back and forth. It has now advanced into a form of social media. You can share stories, which are pictures or videos that everyone you are friends with on snapchat can see, and you can see different magazine type subscription stories. Now that I have had Snapchat for multiple years, I don't know what I would do without it. I snap my friends on a daily basis and it's basically the root of all my laugher. Now you can make snap groups, which means you can have multiple people in a group and you can send pictures to the group like normal group message, and I have so many with my friends. We send anything from drama we want to spill to TikToks in these groups and it is so much f...

Birdin' Around Town

One of my new favorite activities is Birding. I found Bird's in Atlanta, Georgia two years ago and every time I go to any city that has Birds, it is a necessity. You're probably asking what Birds are. Bird is a company that has placed motor scooters around cities to help with transportation and help with the carbon footprint. Bird has created a fun yet helpful way to get around the city. It is super easy to use as well. All you do is download the Bird app, add a credit or debit card, then you're set. When it's time to bird, you pull up the app and scan the bird you are wanting to use. Once you scan it, it will begin your ride and you can ride for as long as you want. The more you use the app, the cheaper your rides become. When you're done, you select end ride and take a picture of your scooter to prove you didn't wreck it. This concept is so smart and a great way to show how technology and social media is growing everyday. Who knew you would be able to driv...

Dream Job Became Reality

When you hear someone is a model what do you picture? A beautiful girl with flawless hair, skin, makeup? Maybe someone that's really tall and slender. Yeah, I did too, well until I had the chance to model myself. I never in a million years would have imagined that I could have the opportunity to model for anyone at all. I am 5 feet, 5 inches tall, I weigh way more than a typical model and I have more visible muscle than most girls do, but this didn't prevent me from booking my first modeling job in 2016. I was so excited because I had traveled to shows with my mom to buy dresses for her bridal and formal store for a few years already and every time I wanted to model so bad but never thought I would get the chance. Like I said before, I did my first show in March 2016 and I have continued modeling since. I have modeled for two dress designers; Rachel Allan and House of Wu . With a job this like comes traveling, but I can't complain. I have traveled to cities like Chica...
