‘choosing Vanderbilt’
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.
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...
Move Out
Apr. 29, 2013—Today, I officially checked out of my dorm room. I turned in my key and stored all of my stuff. You could say that my junior year of college is over, but I beg to differ. Although I am leaving Nashville, I have a take-home exam to submit electronically by Wednesday. Therefore, at least until...
Getting Ready for Summer- my trip to student health
Apr. 21, 2013—This summer is going to be one of my most exciting ever! I have three finals this week leave Nashville next Sunday (just SEVEN days from today). Where did the year go?! I will be home for about a week and a half before my first summer adventure begins. On May 11th, I will be traveling to Solola, Guatemala to serve as a program intern with Manna Project International.
Scenic Nashville
Apr. 15, 2013—This weekend, the weather in Nashville was beautiful! I took advantage and did some sight-seeing and hanging out in the great outdoors. Here are some of the highlights: I went for an 8-mile run through downtown Nashville and around LP field. I stopped in Printer’s Alley and on the pedestrian bridge. I also ran down...
Sips n Strokes Comes to Campus
Apr. 15, 2013—Last Thursday night, I got to attend a free painting class courtesy of VPB. The class was held in The Anchor, which is an open space in New Rand where students can paint banners and make posters. Many materials are provided in the Anchor, but this class was special because VPB brought in Sips n Strokes to teach it.
What Will You Be?
Apr. 9, 2013—If you haven’t figured it out, I already love the future class of 2017. So of course, I couldn’t resist following in the footsteps of fellow bloggers Nathan and Ryan. Reflecting on my Vanderbilt experience and trying to sum it up in a few words is always difficult, but here’s what stands out: You will...
What Will You Be?
Apr. 7, 2013—Today, I provide you with part 3 of the series inspired by Nathan. I suppose I should start in the same way as the other two. Congratulations to the admitted students of the Class of 2017. You guys are so talented and amazing. I am sure that you have heard this millions of times, but I would have NEVER gotten in if I had applied this year. I hope that you choose to attend Vanderbilt. I absolutely could not imagine myself anywhere else. And so now I ask you, what will you be?
I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends
Apr. 6, 2013—Last Thursday, I took the MCAT and amazingly didn’t have any breakdowns or major freakouts because my friends have been especially awesome these last few weeks.
Ice Skating
Apr. 4, 2013—Did you know that Centennial Sportsplex is right across the street from campus? I always knew this, but when things get crazy, I quickly forget that these opportunities for fun exist. Yesterday, though, I took advantage and went ice skating with some friends.
