Golfing on Spring Break

Over spring break the Ohio Northern Golf team went to Orlando Florida where we had three matches to play in. We flew out of the Columbus Airport on Saturday February 29, 2020 and had a layover in Baltimore Maryland then finally arrived to Orlando late that night and made it to our 40 person house at 11:30pm. We got in our rooms, unpacked, ate, and packed one of the vans with our clubs for the six-hour practice we were having the next day to prepare us for the matches that were starting on Monday. 

I golfed in two Ryder Cups, Tuesday and Wednesday both at 7am. A Ryder Cup is a nine-hole match where the first six you and a partner play a scramble, the second six you play best ball and the last six is alternate shot. The first day my partner and I lost all three rounds and the second day we tied the first two and lost the third. 


After playing Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, we got Thursday and Friday off to do whatever we wanted. Read the next vlog “Spring Break Fun” to hear what I did!

Missing Loved Ones Pt. 1

There are two people I miss most in the world. My Grammy and my Papa, my Grammy passed when I was 17 and my Papa passed when I was 15. In this Blog I will be talking about my Papa and in the part two, I will talk about my Grammy.             Ever since I was a baby, my Papa and I had a very special bond. He gave me the most special nickname I could ask for. He only ever called me “Gypsy” and there is a very funny reason why. When my mom and dad announced that my name was going to be Madylin, my Papa told them that he didn’t like it and that it was a gypsy name which is where the nickname started. For 15, my papa never called me Madylin or Mady, only Gypsy.              My Papa and I had many inside jokes, but my favorite was our sign language. For example, if you ever saw us in a public setting put our arms straight up in the air, with palms facing in, i...

It's Getting Warm

  In Michigan, I feel as though we are the last to get the warm weather. My friends from Ohio that I’ve made at school have been posting the 70-degree weather they are enjoying while I am inside in the warm because its 40 degrees outside. Well, lucky for me and my fellow Michiganders, it’s beginning to warm up here. All last week into the begging of this week, I’ve been spending my quarantine days at my neighbors (Madison) hot tub hanging out. She’s a senior in high school this year so she’s enjoys the company during this hard time.   As we’ve been hanging out in the, what we think, is hot weather (AKA 50 degrees) we have been trying different tropical drinks and snacks to really make us feel like were in the midst of summertime in *southern* Michigan.    I’m going to share our two favorite things we’ve tried so far.  Coconut smoothie – coconut milk, coconut, frozen: banana and pineapple, honey, and cinnamon Sunshine smoothie- vanilla almond ...

The Last Hoorah

Since ONU closed for the corona virus, my friends and I decided to go out all day Friday and hangout. There was a darty (day party) off campus and we thought it’d be fun to go play some cornhole, throw around a football and eat some good food. The party was St. Paddy’s themed because of the date being too close to St. Patrick’s Day, we got together to make/crop shirts and get ready for the party. It was a lot of fun and I’m glad I did it. Today we received news that ONU will be shutting down for the rest of the year, luckily, I got a good last memory in, my friends and I all hanging put from 2pm to 2am and making the best last memory I could ask for my freshman year.
