I’m Gonna Miss It Here
Dec. 15, 2012—With the cold weather seeming like its here to stay a while and all of my friends starting to head home for Winter Break, a constant thought in everything I do has been "I'm going to miss Vandy next semester."
Home for the Holidays
Dec. 14, 2012—I am so happy to be writing to you from chilly Chicagoland as I am home! Today, I've already eaten my favorite foods and decorated Christmas cookies with my sister. It was a little weird to see houses decorated for Christmas as I forgot that was a thing. I cannot believe that this semester is already over and I am 3/8 of the way done with college! It is flying!
Heading to the Shire! brb
Dec. 13, 2012—That’s right, folks. Finals week is, in fact, upon us. My schedule for the past 5 days has literally been: Wake up. Put on sweats. Go to the library. Eat and study. Study study study study. Eat. Study. Return from the library. Sleep. Rinse and repeat as needed. (5 days)
The life of a Peabody student during finals week
Dec. 13, 2012—Vanderbilt has an intriguing finals atmosphere: students meander around on 0-2 hours of sleep per night, moving from a test to the library and just maybe stopping for coffee in between. When you're a Peabody student, however, your life tends to be a bit different come finals week.
Caitlyn’s Catch-Ups: Nationals
Dec. 13, 2012—We played three games total in what was a blur of a tournament. I loved spending time with my team, and we got to spend time exploring Memphis and making great memories--which is why I really love Nationals in the first place!
Caitlyn’s Catch-Ups
Dec. 13, 2012—Please allow me to present to you Caitlyn's Catch-Ups, a series of blogs similar to (and possibly inspired by), but not affiliated in any way with the Catch Up with Nathan and Victoria series.
Dodecs Chillin.
Dec. 13, 2012—As this semester comes to an end, so has my time (until next August of course) with my awesome all-male a capella group, the Vanderbilt Dodecaphonics. I joined the “Dodecs” last fall as a sophomore, and since then it has been a really important [and fun] part of my Vanderbilt experience. This semester I was...
‘Tis the season for holiday parties!
Dec. 13, 2012—I adore going to holiday parties here at Vandy. They're always so great for relieving exam stress and providing a healthy dose of holiday spirit. This year, I went to two of them: one for Vanderbilt University Theatre and one for Victory A Cappella!
Performances! Performances! And yes….more performances!
Dec. 13, 2012—As the semester comes to a close, student group performances start popping up like mad! Every weekend is so chock full of performances you can't conceivably attend them all and still have time to study and sleep. As such, I wanted to write this blog post to talk about all the great students organizations that Vanderbilt has to offer.
A Snapshot of Samantha
Dec. 12, 2012—As I sit here on a slightly lumpy chair in a dorm on the 6th floor of Lewis, surrounded by friends and eating a fresh strip of bacon and a homemade omelet (the product of a breakfast-for-dinner attempt), I am overwhelmed by how happy I am. Mumford and Sons is blaring from someone’s Mac and...
