the oval

i have come to love the oval at ohio state this year. i hate some of the stuff that goes on at the oval, but from a sociological perspective it is fascinating. strangers cross paths and impact lives forever. random convos start about religion, a stranger tosses another stranger his frisbee back, a man brings his dog with him to hit on cute girls, tour groups walk through and high school kids wish they had this everyday, coupons and fliers are distributed, free crap is handed out to poor college. it is freakin awesome to see the exchange of goods and services that occur on this plot of land, that hasnt been comprised in decades.

as i eluded to earlier, there are some things i hate about the oval:
-stupid, dumb campus "preachers", these guys (for the most part) are terrible and give the worst image of christianity to non-believersl i find their christianity unappealing and univiting
-i am sick and tired of usg people standing there begging you to vote for them
-the biggest issue is these crazy college girls that lay out on the oval in their bikinis and just seek the attention of guys. it is odd, i didnt see any sand on the oval or any water, so what makes it okay to lay out there...go to mirror lake where you can jump in when it gets too hot. (side note: i was talking to my mom about this, she is very modest, but she sees nothing wrong with this, she said she use to lay out in the quads at bg, i was stunned and threw up in my mouth a little, i still love you though mom)
