‘end of the semester’
Favorites of Fall 2011
Dec. 8, 2011—To shake things up a bit, I wanted to give other non-blogging Vanderbilt students the chance to get a few words in. As we finish the Fall 2011 semester, we are excited for the coming of Winter Break, the ability to sleep in, watch TV, and hang out more than is possible while school is...
DONE (with classes at least)
Dec. 8, 2011—It feels nice to be officially done with classes, especially considering I thought I would be in class for two more hours than I actually was today.
The end is near.
Dec. 8, 2011—Today is officially my last day of classes. Do you know what that means? Finals are literally right around the corner. AHHHHHH!
Rand’s Holiday Feast
Dec. 8, 2011—Instead of the usual Quiznos for dinner, last night I feasted on lamb, oysters, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. No, I’m not an amazing cook all of sudden, but rather Rand hosted its annual Holiday Celebration from 5-8pm.
Writing a Parody of a Classic
Dec. 8, 2011—For my FREN 261: The Age of Louis XIV course, I chose to do a creative assignment for my final essay. The assignment? — Write a fairy tale in the style of Charles Perrault, the Brothers Grimm, or Hans Christian Andersen. I chose to write a parody of the childhood classic, “Sleeping Beauty,” originally written...
The “Last” Day of Classes
Dec. 7, 2011—Today is Dec. 7, 2011. Significance? Today is the last day of the Fall 2011 semester! …for me! Both of my classes tomorrow, Dec. 8 aka the actual last day of classes, were cancelled since all that we have left to do is turn in our final papers. All that’s left is one week of...
Last Weekend of Relaxation
Dec. 6, 2011—This past weekend, I spent most of my time hanging out with friends, sleeping, and mentally preparing myself for the week ahead.
Acting for an “A”
Dec. 6, 2011—For my Fundamentals of Theatre class, the final project was performing a short scene for the entire class. We were not simply given a script and told what to do by our professor, but rather the performances were entirely student-run.
Sunday Funday
Dec. 5, 2011—Yesterday was such a great day filled with on-campus activities. Currently counting down to final exam week, I decided that yesterday was going to be a day of fun, friends, and minimal studying (I may pay for that last part later).
Final Friday of Classes!
Dec. 2, 2011—I know I’ve been mentioning how I can’t believe how quickly this semester has gone by for the past few posts. You’d think that I’d be used to it by now, but no such luck. Within a mere week, my third semester at Vanderbilt will officially be over! Ahh. Still can’t get over that.
