Readjusting to Vandy Life
Jan. 19, 2013—I’m baaaaaaack! Granted, I’ve been back at Vandy for two weeks now but I forgot how busy life on campus can be. Hence, this blog post:
YOSO: You Only Scotland Once.
Jan. 16, 2013—So after a 3 hour drive to Newark Airport and a 7 hour flight to Edinburgh, I made it to Scotland safe and on-time last Wednesday morning. My first observation: this city is probably the most beautiful city I have ever seen. Moving on… my first few days in Edinburgh were spent in my IFSA [institute for...
Warranted Wanderlust
Jan. 9, 2013—If I were rushing a sorority this semester, I would have had so much to talk about during rush past the programmed greetings. And that's just one of the perks of travelling internationally over winter break.
Winter Break/Deuces ‘Murrrrica
Jan. 7, 2013—GREEEEEEEEEEETINGS from Nashv…jk my house. While all of my Vandy friends had their first day of classes today, I packed and ran last minute errands to get ready for my semester abroad in Scotland!

Imma miss you, Vandy.
Dec. 15, 2012—Well folks, I survived the semester. After a stressful morning of last minute packing, goodbyes, and two plane rides, I am finally made it home.

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."
Coming (Back) to America
Dec. 13, 2012—I can’t believe the time has actually come, but I’m flying back to America tomorrow! I’ve seriously had the craziest three months of my life, and I’m so thankful for this experience. So this is my post reflecting on my favourite and not-so-favourite parts of living in London (notice the spelling?):
My Job
Dec. 9, 2012—Though many of my friends at Vandy hold on campus jobs during the semester to help cover expenses, I have never worked during the school year - until this semester. I started working in August for the Vanderbilt Global Education Office (GEO) as a Peer Adviser. This basically means that I sit at a desk and talk about my study abroad experience, so it was pretty much my favorite thing.

Nov. 27, 2012—I know I’ve seriously been the worst blogger for the past few months, but I’m trying to make up for it with lots of pretty pictures from my adventures!
First Post/ I’m Going to Rome!
Nov. 20, 2012—Well, this is my first blog post of the semester, so I should explain why I’ve been so busy. This semester, I spent much of my time working on an application to study abroad. Working on writing samples and paperwork for this process was definitely time consuming considering I have regular schoolwork as well, but...
