The Suite Life of Chaffin 115
Nov. 25, 2014—It's the Thanksgiving season, so I thought I might write a little about how thankful I am for my suities. The formation of our suite came together rather haphazardly, mostly because we had never all met each other before, but now we are lovely, wonderful friends.

A Crêpe-y Kind of Day
Nov. 23, 2014—Celebrations were to be had after the our last classes on Friday. DeSano's, The Red Bicycle, the Nashville Farmer's Market, and running up Capitol Hill were all achieved. Just casually starting off Thanksgiving Break with mere awesomeness.

A Not-Quite-Winter Wonderland
Nov. 17, 2014—I’ve been at Vanderbilt for just over three months now, and some pretty cool things have happened. I made some great friends, learned a lot from my awesome classes, and even saw Bill Nye. But all of that pales in comparison to what happened today. Yes, lovely Inside Dores readers. Today, it snowed. I had...
