What I’m Looking Forward To
Nov. 17, 2015—It’s been a little while since my last blog post. I’m still recovering from a killer week with two big exams and a research paper, but I figured I should write something before finals approach. Oh boy. Don’t want to start thinking about that.

Silent Light
Dec. 9, 2013—Actually, it really wasn't silent at all. And that was a far-fetched play on words. So really, the title is pretty silly. Oh well. This blog post is about lovely lights.

A Sweet Tooth Satisfied
Feb. 26, 2013—In my dream world, I would grow up to be a famous food blogger and get paid for eating gourmet food day in and day out in glamorous cities like New York and Paris. Unfortunately, this is not my fantasy world, and I am eating 14 out of 21 meals on the Vandy meal plan. Don't fear, though, prospective future Nashville dwellers, because Nashville is full of delicious noms to satisfy ever palate.
Free ice cream? Count me in!
Sep. 19, 2012—This morning I was feeling stressed about my biomechanics exam that was happening later that day, and I was worried that I wouldn't have time to go over everything that I needed to, as I am quite the crammer. However, my day instantly got 100x better when my friend texted me to let me know about free ice cream on Alumni Lawn!
