Mormon Night at the Dayton Dragons

On Monday it was Mormon Night at The Dayton Dragons! (Meaning we had a stake choir sing the National Anthem, the opening pitch was thrown by a member of the Fairborn Ward and the two Dayton stakes bought group tickets to the game) It was a lot of fun to attend. Here are a few pictures from the night, taken on our cell phones which explains the poor quality. (I should have thought to bring my regular camera but cell phone pics are better than no pics :)

I'm in the final stretch of Spring Quarter at Sinclair. (End of the quarter is June 15th) Then a few days after the end of the quarter my summer classes will start. No rest for the wicked! I am excited though because summer I am taking the last math class that I need. (I once saw a t-shirt that said "I'm an English major: you do the math" which basically describes my feelings) Then after summer quarter is over I will start the application process for four year schools. Right now the list for schools I plan to apply to is UD, Miami and Ohio State. I've loved my time at Sinclair but I am excited to see where I'll be continuing my education at.

Catching Up with the Blog

Wow! I have gotten behind on my blogging (Sorry Heather!) So here is my attempt to catch up on recent events:

The Ohio State University
During the first half of my spring break we visited the campus of THE Ohio State University! I love OSU! It will be one of the many schools I will be starting the application process for in the fall. (UD, Miami and Kentucky are also on the list)

Dad joining in the spirit with me. (Notice the Ohio State polo he's wearing. What a classy guy!)

One of the many amazing buildings on campus.

One wing of Thompson Library (Possible employment option??)

Brother Gee's portrait in the library
Washington DC
For the later half of my Spring Break we went out to the nation's capital. It was really cool to see all the iconic sites. My personal favorites were The Museum of American History and the Library of Congress. I sure missed The Metro trains when I went back home to "beginning of the quarter traffic" at Sinclair.

"The Castle" of The Smithsonian

Washington D.C. Temple

National Museum of American History: One of the first Dumbos on the Disneyland ride






Library of Congress: Isn't it amazing? Biggest let down: They don't let tourists into the actual reading room where all the books are. Oh well I probably would have had urges to shelf read in there any way. (Oh I love my job :)

Nashville
I traveled to Nashville for The Phi Theta Kappa National Convention. It was a lot of fun but the convention didn't allow much time to be a tourist.
