Oct. 31, 2015—Not only was my Week of Super-Fun Academic Assessment much more manageable and much less stressful than it would have been had I not carved out the time to be productive, but I also got to do some Nashville exploring.
It Goes On and On with the Avett Brothers
Sep. 22, 2014—The first time I heard the Avett Brothers, I was sitting in the backseat of a fifteen-passenger van with some other eighth graders on an outdoor summer leadership trip, wondering why in the world my Teva-wearing, quick-dry-pants-sporting, wilderness-loving camp counselors enjoyed listening to twangy singers.

Last weekend, my friend J., who was slightly obsessed with them, and I "saw" them live.
Tour Talks
Dec. 14, 2013—Today, Caitlyn and I gave two tours. Two tours in one day is definitely not the norm, but it got me thinking about the questions I hear most often on a tour. Those are very likely questions that you, dear readers, might have as well, so I figured I'd answer a few!

While having access to non-bus and non-cab transportation has been a luxury, having a car at Vandy is definitely something I could comfortably live without. The "swagger wagon", if you will, is a nice-to-have, but not a must-have.

Apr. 9, 2013—For my social studies methods class, our final project is to create a geodiary about our community and it got me thinking about how my physical community broadened significantly after I got my car this year. So, I realized that this could be an important blog post for prospective Vanderbilt students: do you bring a car to Vandy or not? Here is my pros/cons list...

The Case of the Kickstand
Dec. 6, 2011—This Tuesday morning at approximately 5:36, I walked outside into the frigid air to unlock my bike to ride to PT. As I went through the mechanical routine of inputting the combination and removing the bike from its stand, something went horribly awry – my kickstand was missing.
