‘choosing Vanderbilt’
Blair Audition Day!
Jan. 24, 2014—I just came back from my Friday class at Blair, and the school is crowded with musicians today. Today is the first day for auditions for the Blair class of 2018. I can already tell that it is going to be a great class. There were people playing music everywhere, in the hallways, stairwell and...
I went bowling!
Jan. 7, 2014—This past Saturday, my sister and I met up with some of my friends in Birmingham, AL to watch the Commodores take on the University of Houston Cougars at the BBVA Compass Bowl. I had never been to an away game before, although I guess this was technically considered a neutral field. It was the perfect ending to my last football game as a student.
Tour Talks
Dec. 14, 2013—Today, Caitlyn and I gave two tours. Two tours in one day is definitely not the norm, but it got me thinking about the questions I hear most often on a tour. Those are very likely questions that you, dear readers, might have as well, so I figured I'd answer a few!
My Winter Break To-Do List

The Drive to Miami
Dec. 13, 2013—Yesterday was a pretty long day. My sister and I were up at the crack of dawn to drive from Nashville to Miami. We did it all in one day and it took us just over 13 hours. I picked her up from Commons and we were able to use her breakfast meal to get coffee and muffins for breakfast.
Vanderbilt Football Bowl Announcement Party
Dec. 10, 2013—This Sunday night, my sister, some friends and I took a study break to ANCHOR DOWN at the bowl announcement party. This event, which has become an annual tradition, celebrates the accomplishments of the football team and announces where the Commodores will play their bowl game. Vice Chancellor Williams, Chancellor Zeppos and Coach Franklin spoke...
A Holiday Party
Dec. 9, 2013—As seniors, my friends and I are trying to fit a lot of fun in the little time left that we have at Vanderbilt. Therefore, despite the copious amounts of papers and exams that we all have this week, we decided to take a break and celebrate. We celebrated the holidays, the end of our last fall semester, and my friend's birthday.
Captain Philips and the John Rich Hunger Games.
Dec. 9, 2013—I know that title is a bit of a mouthful but read on to know why. So I was sitting down a few days ago and I got thinking about all that’s happened this semester. My conclusion: Vandy wants me to have as much fun as possible. So earlier on this semester I had the...
Titans Game. Fo’ Free
Dec. 8, 2013—I have literally been waiting 3.5 years to say this: I GOT TO GO TO A TITANS GAME FOR FREE!
