During Spring Break, most Vanderbilt students will go off to the beach or go on Alternative Spring Break. I chose to...

The Deed is Done

Mar. 2, 2013—It is finally done. It is finally official. Back in November, I said I was going to declare my major "in a few weeks." Turns out I lied, but I finally got around to making everything official.

Cabaret!

Mar. 2, 2013—This past week has been a crazy mess of midterms, lack of sleep, and caffeine. That’s why my roommates and I decided to end it on a glorious note. Tomorrow I’m driving them to the airport at 6am, but tonight we went to go see Tennessee Reparatory Theatre’s production of Cabaret...

A Sweet Tooth Satisfied

Feb. 26, 2013—In my dream world, I would grow up to be a famous food blogger and get paid for eating gourmet food day in and day out in glamorous cities like New York and Paris.

Feb. 26, 2013—As college continues to fly by at frightening speed, I realize I am getting closer and closer to being that terrifying and frightening word--an "adult." Due to my love of lists, I present you some reasons why recently I've felt closer to being a "real person":

The Vanderbilt Political Review

Feb. 26, 2013—At Vanderbilt, there are close to half-a-million extracurricular activities in which you can get involved. These include religious groups, service groups, cultural group, intermural sports, and so many others.  One group with which I have been active for several years is the Vanderbilt Political Review.  We are a non-partisan group that publishes an academic journal...

Signing Day

Feb. 26, 2013—I cannot believe that I forgot to blog about this- but better late than never, I suppose. A few weeks ago was national signing day.

Midterm Madness

Feb. 25, 2013—Midterms are upon us! In the coming week, I’m sure you’ll hear a great (and valid) amount about the trials and tribulations of midterm examinations, pontifications and dissertations on Westernization, and other such things. I’m beating the rest of Inside ‘Dores to the punch, however – my midterm week came early, and it was a...
