10 Lessons Learned in Cincy.

1. Rental car stores in downtown Durham are a no-go. Unless you want to pay $200 extra, bless their HIDES

2. It's worth it to drive 8 hrs to see this stud.

 

3. Sometimes the 5k you haven't been training for, and you almost miss because you purposely wake up too late for, and the one you have to run in the rain for, is the best one.

4. Free t shirts are even better when they're matching free t-shirts. And sometimes feeling like a dork in public wearing matching shirts doesn't make you feel like a dork at all, but increases your cool factor by 55% when it's with your boyfriend who's awesome.

5. Sometimes it rains for 3 days straight and your plans get ruined, but not really because it's still just as fun to just be with your boo.

   

6. Sometimes driving 2 hours to the temple is worth it.

 

7. Sometimes you just have to give in to the urge to take a picture with a bearcat when you see one.

8. Sometimes it's better to combine two words if the combined word is cooler than the sum of it's parts. ie) basket + cart = bascart. Check.

9. Sunsets after 3 days of rain are stunning. Ab-so-lutely stunning.

10. Cincinnati has the coolest bridges. And the cutest man.

 

11. Sometimes you have to cut your hair over a toilet. Sometimes you have a mullet in the process. Or a backwards mullet?

 12. Sometimes fortune cookie fortunes are true.

13. And sometimes they're just awkward.

 

14. Sometimes Chinese food isn't that good and sometimes you get nervous when you try to speak Chinese to your waitress. 

15. Sometimes your boyfriend can do a grandpa smile better than you can, even though you taught it to him.
