Those of you who know me well know that I love my shuteye. When I don’t count enough sheep, well let’s just say I’m less than accommodating. So why then did I SPRING out of bed at 4:00 A.M. this morning? I did it for the one thing that will always put me in a good mood…Ohio State football. For a homesick kid 7,000 miles away from everything I love, football is a welcomed dose of ordinary.
Even though I had to trade in my wings for chopsticks and my uncontrollable screaming for silent fist pumps it felt like home. The glaring differences between South Korea and the United States seem to be slightly muted this morning hearing the echoes of O-H-I-O and seeing the embarrassingly hilarious Snuggie commercials. My post game celebration will be a bit different but the facts remain the same, I bleed Scarlet and Gray. I’m going to turn in for a few hours, let’s hope I don’t have nightmares about Ohio State’s special teams.
You know it was worth it. You should get some of your O-H-I-O kids to watch a game. Then they will really know what an American from Ohio is all about. Go Bucks!
ReplyDeleteGreat that you can watch the Buckeye games. Way to go Bucks!
