Thought of the week: "Stress is merely an illusion. Take a step back sometimes"
week 4
This week, I got to lead the intramural sports session for the same time. Despite it not being intramural football, I still had a great time. It was hot and dry and reminded me of my childhood. Like every German kid, I grew up on playing soccer. I played youth soccer for roughly six years before I found my one true love: American Football.
This friday, I had the opportunity to go to the Oktoberfest in Cincinnati - or Zinzinnati according to every Cincinnatian I talked to. It was funny and pleasant at the same time to experience my culture six time zones away from home. Especially with seeing all my friends going to the actual Oktoberfest, it was nice to eat some Brats and enjoy some familiar folk music!
On the weekend, all of the ambassadors worked at the annual UC Blue Ash Dash. We had students, faculty and most importantly their dogs compete in a 5K race. Even though all of us had to get up before sun rise, it turned out to be an awesome event. We raised roughly $25,000 for the UCBA scholarship fund. Moreover, all of us ambassadors bonded and had a lot of fun!
