What I’m Looking Forward To
Mar. 12, 2013—Well, spring break is over, and it’s time to finish the last few weeks of classes before summer vacation. While the end of the semester is just around the corner, there is still so much to do at Vanderbilt and in Nashville. Here are a few things that I am looking forward to in the next couple of weeks:
Bringing the Music to Music City
Mar. 11, 2013—With a few tricks up my sleeve, I managed to score the gig of a lifetime for my next three years at Vandy.
Cabaret!

Jan. 20, 2013—The beauty of being in a city like Nashville is that you never know who you’ll run into when you’re least expecting it. Friday night, four of my friends and I went out into the city to go dancing and ran into someone unexpected...
Warranted Wanderlust
Jan. 9, 2013—If I were rushing a sorority this semester, I would have had so much to talk about during rush past the programmed greetings. And that's just one of the perks of travelling internationally over winter break.
