The Crazy Ones Will Change the World -R.I.P, Jobs
Oct. 8, 2011—I was immensely inspired by the quote: “they (some people) leave the world a better place than they found it.” People may pass away, but the world will remember them forever because their impacts will continue to knock the hearts and to inspire other souls. These great people are a source of courage, a trigger...
Going International -A Celebration of Culture and Adventure
Oct. 7, 2011—This past Saturday was one of those grateful days that reminded me how privileged I am to have the opportunity to travel, to live, and to grow.

Outdoor Recreation: Climbing at King’s Bluff
Oct. 5, 2011—One of my favorite things to do on a weekend is to get away for a day and go outside! I don’t just mean reading a book while basking in the sun. I mean good ol’ hiking, kayaking, canoeing, and above all (pun intended!) climbing!

Oct. 5, 2011—This weekend marked my first and only trip back home (the wonderful Bloomington, IN) until the end of the semester. And what a great weekend it was: international music, dancing, and home-cooked meals! Oh my!

Oct. 5, 2011—For some odd reason homework, meetings, more meetings, and class seem to have gotten together to perform a sneak attack on my sanity and sleep schedule today. Looking back though, it was quite a productive 16 hours!
Midterms are here…
Oct. 4, 2011—It’s that time of the semester again–that time when sleep and sanity are hard to find in many students’ vocabularies, when being surrounded by flawless weather makes you a little angry because you know you can’t let yourself be distracted…but you do anyway. Well, it’s that time for me, at least!
Fall is Finally Here!
Oct. 3, 2011—It’s officially fall here at Vanderbilt. How do I know?
Free Pizza for Everyone!
Sep. 23, 2011—I am currently sitting on a couch outside of Rand anxiously awaiting free pizza. At 12 noon, CityVU is hosting the Nashville Pizza Challenge. This event, held once a year, is a chance for Vanderbilt students to decide which pizza is the best in Nashville.
9/11 at Vanderbilt
Sep. 19, 2011—A week and a day ago, America remembered the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center on their 10th anniversary. To many of us, even those just starting college, the idea that this tragedy took place ten years ago is startling – It is ingrained in our national memory vividly and deeply. Vanderbilt took time...
