049 What's in? | What's out?

Before the start of spring break, Dave headed out to talk to Mountaineers who always seem to know what’s up, what’s in and what’s out! Listen as they discuss what they’re bringing with them into the second half of the semester and what’s getting left behind. We are talking about energies, habits and yes, you guessed it… water bottles!

Hey, Kyla!

Kyla

Jocelyn

I’m Jocelyn, what's out is those...do you know those like, Lululemon shorts that were, like, really puffy and, like, super high waisted? I hate them. They're out.

Dave

Yes, all right.

Jocelyn

They've been out. It's time to wear shorts again. And those are still they're still not. Okay. And what's in for me is probably I mean, honestly, just like tank tops, like it's time for my body to get some more sun.

Dave

It feels really good today.

Jocelyn

Yeah, it really does.

Anne Carol Sheely

I'm Anne Carol Sheely. What's out is social media TikTok even though I'm still on it. And then the new one this semester is hydration.

Kaleb Neal

Nice! Well, so what are the new ones we're bringing in then?

Kaleb Neal

Turning in assignments on time and staying ahead.

Owen Roberson

I'm Owen Roberson. Well, for me I'm trying to get out of being lazy I guess and try to be outside more. The winter season for sure is a bit of like the seasonal depression kind of thing. So trying to get back into being outside, being social a bit more.

Dave

We can't interview babies.

Stroller offerer 

Do you want to grab my stroller?

Stroller denier 

He wasn't holding on to the stroller.

Apprecia Lassiter 

No, but I had my dignity at the very least.

Dave

Oh no! All right, so what's in for you, then?

Apprecia Lassiter 

Hmmm, I guess chaos. We’ll it embrace it.

Dave

I'm hopeful it won't be super chaotic for you, but I don't know.

Apprecia Lassiter 

I don’t know either. I paid for it...so.

Dave

Yeah! You’re the one that came here! This was your idea!

Emily Daggerhart

Just in general?

Dave

It could be anything.

Emily Daggerhart

Out? social media. I'm so tired of being on my phone all the time. I'm over it. I want to be more present in the next half of the semester. Like, be outside, do things. Not scrolling through TikTok or Instagram. I feel like it takes up a lot of my time and it's not productive.

Better grades, better relationships, better attitudes.

Regan Petto 

Anything mid-day when you're, like, feeling kind of sad and you don't know why.

Dave

Wait, is that eating your feelings. That's not what that is.

Regan Petto 

It’s not. It’s is keeping your body fueled.

Dave

Yeah. All right. I like that. Good. All right. And Reagan, what is out?

Regan Petto 

Crying over your to do list.

Dave

Does it really bring you to tears?
