Fall Semester Senior Year Schedule
Sep. 1, 2019—Happy September everyone! Can’t believe August is already over, but I can’t wait for the weather to cool down and for the leaves to change color for the fall! In other news, I can’t believe that I’m a senior…Time seems to fly by faster with every year and I’m honestly a little sad that this...
Summer Plans
May. 3, 2019—I thought I’d talk a little bit about what I’m doing this summer since many of my fellow Inside ‘Dores bloggers have shared what they’re doing.

Post Finals Fun
May. 1, 2019—Can’t believe it’s May and that I’m senior now! I swear the time goes by faster with every year that passes.

Blair Life: ft. orchestra
Jan. 31, 2019—A big part of the music major life is participating in one of Blair’s large ensembles, orchestra and wind symphony. As a cello performance major, I am required to play in orchestra every semester and it has been such a wonderful experience to perform masterpieces written by the greatest composers of all time. Tonight, the...
Spring Semester Schedule
Jan. 11, 2019—I’m excited about the classes I’m taking this semester, so I thought I’d share what I’m taking. As a Cello Performance Major and French minor, I couldn’t take that many academic classes until my junior year, because my freshman and sophomore years were mainly filled with music major core classes (like AXLE requirements for A&S)....
