Adios Seniors
Apr. 26, 2013—The end of the semester with Victory is always a bittersweet experience. We get to perform our concert, record our newest CD, and have an end-of-the-semester party. The bad part? We have to say goodbye to our seniors. :(
I love the contrasts Rites of Spring brings
Apr. 21, 2013—This weekend was tons of fun, thanks to Rites of Spring :) I loved going last year as a freshman and staying the entire time, but I think I enjoyed popping in and out more this spring. The entire atmosphere of the event is pretty relaxed, like your typical music festival—the bands perform enthusiastically, people bring coolers and sit on picnic blankets, and there are several food trucks and tables where people can buy T-shirts, drinks, or food...
How to Get Involved
Apr. 13, 2013—This weekend I’ve been realizing just how easy it is to get involved on campus and how much fun it is to interact with people who are not from your stereotypical social circle. This was brought to my attention when I started working as the house manager for the Original Cast's show Until Dawn: A Musical About War...
To drive or not to drive
Apr. 9, 2013—For my social studies methods class, our final project is to create a geodiary about our community and it got me thinking about how my physical community broadened significantly after I got my car this year. So, I realized that this could be an important blog post for prospective Vanderbilt students: do you bring a car to Vandy or not? Here is my pros/cons list...
It’s beginning to look a lot like the end of the semester…
Apr. 6, 2013—As a semester draws to a close, all of the performing groups on campus start strutting their stuff. Each spare moment starts to be packed with supporting other members of VPAC, and I would not have it any other way! This weekend I got to see VOB’s production of Spring Awakening and VUT’s W;t...
MTAC
Apr. 1, 2013—This weekend was a blast and most of what I did came up at the last minute. I had originally anticipated spending this weekend hauled up in my dorm room doing homework but, because my boyfriend was able to get me an extra ticket to MTAC (an anime convention downtown), I got to participate in the plethora of geeky activities instead...
Boondock Saints
Mar. 31, 2013—Last month I bought tickets to go see the movie The Boondock Saints this Friday at the Belcourt Theatre with the cast in attendance!! It turned out to be a great start to my weekend...
Breathe!
Mar. 27, 2013—Yesterday I was fortunate enough to participate in Breathe--Sigma Phi Lambda's night of prayer and praise. Victory has been invited to perform there since I was a freshman, mostly because we share several members. However, last night's event was so much more extensive than any night of prayer and praise I have ever attended. It was a campus-wide inter-denomination praise event, and I think it really encapsulated the interfaith (or in this case, interdenominational) nature of Vanderbilt's campus...
The first week of…spring?
Mar. 22, 2013—Nashville has always had weird weather patterns--you wake up at 7 a.m. and it's 30 degrees outside but by the end of the afternoon, you're yanking off layers because it's 65! That being said, the weather right now tops all of that...
It’s that anticipatory time of year!
Mar. 20, 2013—I have always been one of those students who loved planning. There's something comforting about sorting numerous subcategories into an overall compartmentalized unit. Or maybe I'm slightly OCD and Type A. ;) Regardless, now is the time of year where people like me get to excitedly plan out their summers, next year accommodations, and future classes...
