‘Freshman Life’
What Time Is It? Summertime!
May. 3, 2011—Yes, I did just reference High School Musical because I’m feeling nostalgic, even though I’ve only been away from Vandy for a few hours. My last exam ended at 9 pm yesterday, and I officially checked out of my room around 1 pm today :(
Full Circle. The End of My First Year.
May. 2, 2011—Things have truly come full circle. I am currently cruising at an altitude of 35,000 ft as I draft my last post of the semester. For those of you who don’t know, before I started blogging for Inside ‘Dores, I actually kept a personal. I started this blog back in August, on my way to...
New Bloggers Selected
May. 2, 2011—After an extensive review of applications, the Inside ‘Dores exec board selected eight new bloggers for the 2011-12 academic year. Below you’ll find their self-authored bios. I am incredibly excited to read their work next year! So without further ado… Welcome our newest Inside ‘Dores bloggers!
Move Out
May. 1, 2011—Today, I am moving out of Stambaugh House. I never thought this day would come. Moving out of the Commons is bittersweet. How has an entire year already come and gone? It seems like just yesterday that I moved in. Unfortunately, the move-out process is a little more arduous than the move-in process.

Study Breaks!
Apr. 29, 2011—Finals week has once again struck Vanderbilt as you’ve probably seen from the posts of my fellow bloggers. This, combined with the ever-looming task of packing and making sure everything is in order for the end of the year means that every once and a while, a study break is essential.
Finals!
Apr. 27, 2011—It’s that time of year. All college students dread it. As the weather warms, the work load builds, culminating in one week of hell (better known as finals). Although finals are incredibly stressful and intense, Vanderbilt has done some awesome things to ensure that the stress level of the overall student body is kept in...
Food for Thought
Apr. 27, 2011—I’m officially done with one of my four classes! I’m about to turn in my research paper for my American Studies writing seminar Food for Thought (I think it’s actually the same one Erica took last semester).
Mayfield Orientation
Apr. 26, 2011—As I’ve mentioned before, I’m living in a Mayfield next year. We had our Mayfield Orientation tonight, which consisted of ice-breaking, team building, and elections, not to mention delicious catered food.
