5 Things That I Will Not Regret Doing In College
Jul. 16, 2014—Oh dear. I'm going to be a senior this year. How did I get so old so fast? Move-in day is still so fresh in my mind- most likely because I do it every year- but boy, did the past three years go by quickly. Say, did you just ask for advice, young ones? Here you go:
Holler Out to Houston
Jul. 12, 2014—It was only a twenty-one hour bus trip to Houston. As you know from previous posts and from Humans of New York, Dmitri always has to travel with me. We made it through the journey by napping most of the ride.
The Nash Bash
Jun. 29, 2014—Upon arriving back home in the States, my friend M. picked me up and we drove back to her quaint summer home. Boy, was my body was grateful for horizontal sleeping surfaces after flying back from Switzerland!
Competitions Galore and Glory!
May. 2, 2014—The month-long hiatus of Blair news is over! It's been busy over here on the Blair side.

Storytime Snippets
Mar. 31, 2014—Hello friends! Time to draft a list of everything blog-worthy that has happened in, oh say, the past two months that I haven't yet told you about. Okay Ann. Goal-setting time. I'm going to tackle each one of these subjects, including events like Unveiling the Hijab, BCM Spring SPOTS, a trip to Chattanooga, and perhaps twelve other things, and write about them. Just one a week. Doable.
The Culturally Literate
Feb. 10, 2014—My Friday night led me to experience the visual arts, modern dance, an medley of Vanderbilt voices, and a jubilee for the XXII Winter Games. I certainly was inspired by this culture-filled evening!
Blair Audition Day!
Jan. 24, 2014—I just came back from my Friday class at Blair, and the school is crowded with musicians today. Today is the first day for auditions for the Blair class of 2018. I can already tell that it is going to be a great class. There were people playing music everywhere, in the hallways, stairwell and...
Surprise in Music Literature class
Jan. 18, 2014—After a long day I got to listen to a wonderful band in my American Popular Music class.
Blair Salon Series: Singer-Songwriter Night
Jan. 18, 2014—This is my second time attending the Blair Salon Series at Dean Wcislo’s House. This particular Friday night was just as wonderful, and perhaps even better, than last time. When I attended in October last semester, the theme of the evening was “fairy tales,” including a piece from the musical “Into the Woods.” Tonight’s theme...
The Last One Begins…
Jan. 15, 2014—I am now more than a full week into my last semester at Vanderbilt. That sentence is much easier to write than to really accept. So much still to do, so little time!
