Performances! Performances! And yes….more performances!
Dec. 13, 2012—As the semester comes to a close, student group performances start popping up like mad! Every weekend is so chock full of performances you can't conceivably attend them all and still have time to study and sleep. As such, I wanted to write this blog post to talk about all the great students organizations that Vanderbilt has to offer.
Catch-Up with Nathan and Victoria: Chapter I
Nov. 17, 2012—Good evening, blogosphere. As has been my modus operandi for this semester, I am going to open this post with an apology. I’m sorry for disappearing for weeks on end, only to return for short stints filled with vague hints at the life I’ve been leading off the grid. The world is full of strange...
The Grind
Oct. 9, 2012—So, the number of blog drafts I have sitting on WordPress from mid-August when school began is a little embarrassing. I had every intention of posting updates on the first week of classes, Inside ‘Dores training, Melodores auditions, and a cornucopia of other beginning-of-year types of things. Fear not, reader, for I will deliver, albeit...
Fourth Fridays Return!
Oct. 8, 2012—If you all weren't aware, I'm a pretty big Melodores fan. I've written about their performances before, and I attended the ICCA South Semifinals which were held here at Vandy. I'm also a pretty big fan of supporting fellow bloggers in their endeavors and week from this past Friday I was able to combine both of those!
Food, festivities, and free stuff
Nov. 13, 2011—Fridays are marvelous. They’re probably my favorite day of the week because I only have two classes, the first of which isn’t until 11am and because there are always fun things going on. This last Friday was particularly excellent.
Legos
May. 2, 2011—A few weeks ago, while in NYC for the ICCA Finals with the Melodores, I visited a gigantic Toys R Us with a few of my current and alumni Melobros. As per my usual toy store method, I browsed everything but paid particular attention to the models section (for toy helicopters) and the Lego section...
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!
Hotel Vanderbilt
May. 2, 2011—Just because the semester is over, doesn’t mean the Melodores stop pressing ahead. In fact, in just 12 days we have an audition for NBC’s Sing Off just down the street in Nashville. This will be our third time trying out for the show…will it be a charm? We have been busy all semester, balancing...
ICCA and Lessons Learned
Mar. 20, 2011—This weekend, the Melodores traveled to the University of South Carolina to compete in the Semifinal round of ICCA. Fellow Melodore Seth Johnson wrote an article about the previous quarterfinal round at UGA, but I thought I’d beat him to the punch by posting tonight.
