2 Days ’til ASB!
Feb. 28, 2013—On Saturday morning at 8 AM, I will be driving one of two minivans pulling away from Vandyland headed for Kansas City, MO for Spring Break. While KCMO may not sound like the most exotic, or even exciting, Spring Break destination, it is actually going to be one of the best weeks of the year...
A Sweet Tooth Satisfied
Feb. 26, 2013—In my dream world, I would grow up to be a famous food blogger and get paid for eating gourmet food day in and day out in glamorous cities like New York and Paris. Unfortunately, this is not my fantasy world, and I am eating 14 out of 21 meals on the Vandy meal plan. Don't fear, though, prospective future Nashville dwellers, because Nashville is full of delicious noms to satisfy ever palate.
Figuring it Out
Feb. 26, 2013—As college continues to fly by at frightening speed, I realize I am getting closer and closer to being that terrifying and frightening word--an "adult." Due to my love of lists, I present you some reasons why recently I've felt closer to being a "real person":
The Vanderbilt Political Review
Feb. 26, 2013—At Vanderbilt, there are close to half-a-million extracurricular activities in which you can get involved. These include religious groups, service groups, cultural group, intermural sports, and so many others. One group with which I have been active for several years is the Vanderbilt Political Review. We are a non-partisan group that publishes an academic journal...
Signing Day
Feb. 26, 2013—I cannot believe that I forgot to blog about this- but better late than never, I suppose. A few weeks ago was national signing day. This day has never really been a big deal here because Vanderbilt is not known for contending and signing big-name recruits. This year, however, was different.
*Cough Cough*
Feb. 25, 2013—For me, being sick at college is always one of the saddest moments because I start to miss home terribly. Luckily, the people surrounding me this time were incredibly helpful...
Midterm Madness
Feb. 25, 2013—Midterms are upon us! In the coming week, I’m sure you’ll hear a great (and valid) amount about the trials and tribulations of midterm examinations, pontifications and dissertations on Westernization, and other such things. I’m beating the rest of Inside ‘Dores to the punch, however – my midterm week came early, and it was a...
The Weekend That Keeps On Giving
Feb. 24, 2013—Hello folks! I apologize for my long-term absence. The bar is higher this semester all around—so I had to make sure my FIRST BLOG POST OF 2013 is/was the best thing you have ever read, which means I had to step up my game in the “living life” department. And it goes a little something...
Theatre “Homework”
Feb. 24, 2013—I felt very cultured this weekend because I saw not one, but two plays at Neely Auditorium (one of them was even Hamlet!).
Midterms
Feb. 24, 2013—With just one week before spring break, midterm season is upon us. I have two exams this week and a project due, but compared to some of my friends, I suppose I got off easy. Here is the short list of things standing between me and my beautiful family in sunny Miami Beach.
