Apr. 12, 2010—Today for Easter I went to Campus Crusade‘s sunrise service on Love Hill. It was beautiful – the view of the city of Nashville, the friends, the rising of the gleaming sun.

Stuck Between a Few Schools? Analysis of College Location…
Apr. 6, 2010—This past weekend, I went up to Boston to visit my best from grade school at Tufts University. As soon as I got to Boston, the city came at me with full force. Everything was at a fast pace, people rushing in and out of subways to get where they needed to go. While the...

Health Care For All!
Mar. 22, 2010—No, this blog is not political at all, but it sure got your attention. Whatever happens on capitol hill happens.

Every Story has Two Sides
Mar. 22, 2010—Vanderbilt is a campus of wonders and amazement, but we are a very two-faced campus when it comes to certain things. The weather and music scene are two of the more meaningful and important dichotomies that exist on campus!
Citizenship
Mar. 17, 2010—Many people don’t understand the true value of a U.S. citizenship. Being a U.S. citizen gets you access in some countries without a visa for a certain length of time; it’s also extremely easy to get a visa to most parts of the world. I am currently a citizen of the People’s Republic of China,...
It only took 19 hours to fall in love with Vandy
Mar. 10, 2010—I have been at Vanderbilt University for two and a half years now and I could probably compile you a list around 3,487,298 pages long stating all of the reasons I have come to love Vanderbilt; but we will get to that later. Right now I want to tell you about the 19 hours that...
At the Tips of my Fingers
