10 Struggles of an OU Bobcat

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Ohio U chapter.

Bobcats love OU, but there are some things that are just a struggle to deal with…

1. Literally walking uphill both ways. Anywhere.

I can’t wait to tell my grandchildren about my journey to class.

 

2. Going to the bookstore, finding a super cute Bobcat hoodie, then realizing how much money you actually have.

 

3. I’m sorry, the nearest Target is where?

 

4. No Panera, no Skyline, no Cane’s. When you go home for break you smash on all your favorite food because you know you can’t get it in Athens.

 

5. It’s too warm to snow in Athens, so it rains. And rains. And rains.

Seriously, you might as well live in Seattle.

 

6. If one more person thinks you go to Ohio State after you tell them you go to OU…

 

7. We don’t have the best football team…

 

8. One-way streets is the only way.

 

9. Want to wear those really cute heels you bought this summer? The bricks will make you regret that.

 

10. Construction. Construction everywhere.

 

Regardless of the struggles we endure, we love our school and couldn’t imagine going anywhere else!
