Treeking
Nov. 7, 2013—Are you allowed to come up with new words? I think it's almost legitimate. Do you remember the Tebowing movement, the planking craze, or the milking silliness on YouTube? I'm calling it now: treeking started here. If you were wondering about the etymology of "treeking," the words "tree" and "freaking" were combined one day in the fall at Vanderbilt to describe the state of a particular student. So treeking is exactly that: freaking out about trees.
Passport to Nashville- Country Music Hall of Fame
Nov. 5, 2013—Since the 47th Annual Country Music Association (CMA) Awards are tomorrow, our campus is buzzing with student who are desperate to get into the show. A lot of my friends have found opportunities through Vanderbilt to volunteer at the show, and others have won free tickets from CityVU. I, sadly, will not be attending the show in any capacity. Instead, I visited the Country Music Hall of Fame through the Passport to Nashville program.

A Lecture at the Parthenon
Oct. 30, 2013—I recently attended a lecture at the Nashville Parthenon and it has reminded me just how lucky I am to live in a city so dedicated to celebrating history and art. How many people can study for their Greek art history exam by walking in the park?!
Exit/In Produces Ridiculous Dance Moves
Oct. 29, 2013—I like music. I mean, I really like music. Especially live music. And there's no better place for the live music-loving Vanderbilt student than Exit/In.
Just Bein’ Corny
Oct. 28, 2013—This past Saturday, I went to one of the happiest places on Earth...no not Disneyworld, but a corn maze/pumpkin patch called Shuckles!
When Dad Comes to Visit
Oct. 27, 2013—A few weeks ago my dad wanted to see me, so he booked plane tickets to come down to Nashville last weekend! I haven't seen any of my family yet this semester, so I was super excited to see him. We spent the weekend doing the usual family-comes-to-town things: eating out, going to the Vandy game, and shopping.
A Brunchy Bunch!
Oct. 27, 2013—Shameless loving on Nashville's awesome variety of gastronomy...
