‘Academics’
Oh, Thank Heaven for Semester Seven!
Sep. 12, 2013—(The title’s a stretch, I know. It’s hard to rhyme with seven.) We’re about 3 and a half weeks into my second-to-last semester here at Vanderbilt, and the fact that I haven’t blogged yet is a pretty good indicator of how busy it has been. That being said, it is so good to be back...
Senior Schedule
Sep. 6, 2013—Since we’re now in September, I feel like I’m getting into the routine of my classes. I’ve really enjoyed them so far and luckily haven’t had much homework (knock on wood). So here's my senior schedule for the fall:
Senior Year- A Different Schedule
Aug. 25, 2013—I cannot believe that this is my last fall at Vanderbilt. Between football games, Homecoming week the opening of Alumni Hall, this semester is sure to fly by. Because I am a senior, my schedule is a weird mix of classes that I need to complete my major and AXLE. Thus, although the timing of...
What Now?
Jun. 29, 2013—If I am being honest, my blogging has been quite sporadic this summer. I am usually a regular blogger and I try to set a posting schedule for myself each semester. Thus far this summer, however, I have been traveling, which has left me with inconsistent internet access. Both of my trips were absolutely amazing (thank you parents!), but now I am back stateside for the foreseeable future. There is only one thing left for me do to this summer: apply to medical school.
Chin Up
May. 3, 2013—So this is it. Overweight suitcases and hastily stuffed duffel bags line the hallway. Parents scurry around, last minute packing ensues. Someone inevitably loses a something – a room key, a microwave, a Kindle. It’s all quite cacophonic, but a singular bleakness pervades the air. As the freshmen – or should I say the rising...
Home at Last
May. 2, 2013—It was a long semester and I am finally home. I am leaving to Guatemala on May 11th, so for the next two weeks, I will be pretty busy.
Remaining Calm.
Apr. 30, 2013—If you haven't figured it out yet, it's finals week here at Vandy, and remaining calm is a test of its own! Thankfully the worst is over--I just have one final left (and it's the only actual sit-down final that I have...so of course it's on the last day!) in Formal Logic. In the meantime, I've been doing lots of fun things as study breaks and to cope with the stresses.
Bittersweet Goodbyes
Apr. 30, 2013—The tents are out, the chairs are lined up, and the moving trucks have an increasingly large presence on campus. Yup, it’s already time for the end of the semester. Some students are done and long gone as they commence their summer plans. I, however, will be here until the end–I have a final waiting...
