But Out Reflection

But Outs:

  1. I want to meet new people, but I also like to spend time with the friends I have already made
  2. I want to work out every day of the week, but I always get caught up with homework and lack of sleep
  3. I want to keep in touch with old friends and family, but I am always busy during the week.
  4. I want to sign up for mock interviews, but I do not know how to make a resume.
  5. I want to sign up for more clubs, but they meet while I have class.

Solutions:

  1. I want to meet new people, and I also like spending time with my current friends. So, I will introduce my current friends to new people and we can all be friends.
  2. I want to work out every day of the week, and I always get caught up with homework and lack of sleep. So, I will create a weekly plan that prioritizes work but also makes time for exercise.
  3. I want to keep in touch with old friends and family, and I am always busy during the week. So, I will set aside time on Sundays to make phone calls and Facetime the important people in my life.
  4. I want to sign up for a mock interview, and I do not know how to make a resume. So, I will go to Baker East’s resume workshop.
  5. I want to sign up for my clubs, and they meet while I have class. So, I will somehow get in touch with leaders of the clubs to let them know I am still interested and try to work something out.

Humans of OSU

Anna Weber is a third-year student at OSU.  She grew up in Chagrin Falls, Ohio and went to Chagrin Falls High School.  Growing up, she loved to play piano.  She chose to come to OSU because of its size and all of the opportunities that come along with it.  As a freshman, she chose to major in communications and was involved in Women’s Glee.  However, through Women’s Glee, she realized that she wanted to be doing even more with music.  So, at the end of her freshman year, she auditioned for the music school.  Although she was originally a pianist, she decided to try focusing on voice as her major instead.  Lately, she has loved playing art songs and arias from operas.  Now, she is in symphonic choir, which is the highest level choir at OSU. She says, “Basically, I would major in choir if I could!”  In addition to her involvement with choir, she is also in a band.  She sings and plays keyboard with three of her friends on bass, drums, and guitar.  They just recorded their first songs and are working on playing shows.  She also has a second major in English on the creative writing track.  She is currently taking fiction workshops and is excited to start with poetry next semester. She says, “Basically, I just love OSU because it is so big and thus there are so many opportunities.  So, I was able to switch majors and also easily join musicians Collective Club to learn about starting a band.”  Ideally, she would love to combine her two majors into a future career.
