February, 2012
Vanderbilt Hockey
Feb. 20, 2012—It’s around this time of year that I get a little homesick for the North. Although I love the South dearly, winter sports just isn’t their strong suit down here!
Radnor Lake
Feb. 19, 2012—This weekend, the weather was a little dreary, but Saturday was pretty warm, so I decided to take a hike at nearby Radnor Lake.
The Happiest Place on Earth?!
Feb. 19, 2012—This past Friday was Vanderbilt’s Dance Marathon–a night where Vanderbilt students spend 13.1 hours on their feet in support of Vanderbilt’s Children’s Hospital. Each year as a part of Dance Marathon, there is a silent auction where all of the proceeds go to the Children’s Hospital as well.
The Children’s Hour
Feb. 19, 2012—For the next week, Vanderbilt University Theatre is performing The Children’s Hour. It opened on Friday night and I was lucky enough to see the first performance.
Human and Organizational Development
Feb. 19, 2012—When I tell non-Vandy friends and family that one of my majors is Human and Organizational Development (HOD), I usually receive lots of questions. At first, even I was confused about what this major entails. But after two and a half years in the program, I feel I have a much better grasp on what...
A Freshman in Disguise: Move Crew 2011

However, if you ask a Vanderbilt student, all the students remember move in day because of Move Crew.
Kickboxing!
Feb. 15, 2012—In light of this new semester, I've been trying to exercise more (big emphasis on trying). I'm not particularly a fan of working out, so I like to find ways of exercising which are actually fun as well. I love swimming at the Rec, but I generally don't have enough time to set aside for a good swim, so recently I've picked up a new hobby--kickboxing!
Valentine’s Day!
Feb. 15, 2012—I was about to type that I’d had too much chocolate yesterday, but then I realized that’s not possible. Either way, I probably ate an unhealthy amount of chocolate because it was Valentine’s Day! Come on, all the sugar, chocolate, and baked goods are one of the best parts of the day.
Viva Las Vandy!
Feb. 15, 2012—I realized the other day that I neglected to post about Viva Las Vandy!–an event that transformed the Commons Center into Las Vegas last Friday night. (Actually, it was the Friday before that, but I can’t bring myself to get rid of that link.)
