Well when you have been on the road with someone for almost a month, you are bound to get annoyed with the person no matter how much you like them, especially when the communication goes out the window.

On our first day of rest and relaxation, we decided to have a slow morning, going for a walk around the OSU campus, enjoying the scenery and reminiscing over my years at school here (I went to OSU for two years before transferring to ‘Cuse). After this, we decided to go on a little trip to t

You don’t realize how preciously good a shower feels until you haven’t had one for days, even if it is only for 4 minutes.
