This year I’m grateful for stress
Jan. 13, 2013—This first week back at Vandy has been an incredibly long and stressful one, but I’m still optimistic that things will improve...
The life of a Peabody student during finals week
Dec. 13, 2012—Vanderbilt has an intriguing finals atmosphere: students meander around on 0-2 hours of sleep per night, moving from a test to the library and just maybe stopping for coffee in between. When you're a Peabody student, however, your life tends to be a bit different come finals week.
‘Tis the season for holiday parties!
Dec. 13, 2012—I adore going to holiday parties here at Vandy. They're always so great for relieving exam stress and providing a healthy dose of holiday spirit. This year, I went to two of them: one for Vanderbilt University Theatre and one for Victory A Cappella!
Performances! Performances! And yes….more performances!
Dec. 13, 2012—As the semester comes to a close, student group performances start popping up like mad! Every weekend is so chock full of performances you can't conceivably attend them all and still have time to study and sleep. As such, I wanted to write this blog post to talk about all the great students organizations that Vanderbilt has to offer.
Adventures of a Tuesday Night
Nov. 25, 2012—Last week, Dexy and I decided to go to Target to pick up a few things we needed. We eat oats by the bucketful (overnight oats are my absolute favorite!!) and so we obviously finished all of the ones my mom and I bought during family weekend. We had absolutely no idea how the night would unfold.
It’s always fun to give thanks
Nov. 25, 2012—This past week was Thanksgiving break and I had a totally awesome time even though I wasn’t able to go home! That is one of the pitfalls of being an international student—since you live so far away, it is difficult to see your family during short-term breaks like Thanksgiving. But, that means that you can go home with friends (or in my case, my boyfriend) and get to experience the fun that is Thanksgiving in a different setting...
There’s a job for everyone!
Nov. 9, 2012—This week has been crazy because of the workload that is always heaped upon students pre-Thanksgiving break. However, it’s also been busy for me because it is one of the few weeks I hold an actual job during the semester. As such, I wanted to talk a bit about the perks of working at Vanderbilt!
Chicago – My Journey Outside the Vandy Bubble
Nov. 5, 2012—Last weekend I got to take a trip to Chicago to visit one of my best friends! I’d only been to Chicago once before and I hadn't really had time to explore it thoroughly, so I was super-excited!
Fun Times in Nashville!
Oct. 30, 2012—The past few days I’ve been able to journey off into Nashville for some city-specific events, which has been so exciting! This year my roommates and I splurged and bought season passes to TPAC’s Broadway performances. We literally sit in the last row but it ended up being under $20 a performance, which is totally...
I Love My Mommy
Oct. 16, 2012—Hey, everyone! I hope you all had fantastic weekends; I know I did! Family weekend proved to be everything I expected it to be and much more. :)
