‘Midterms’
What I Learned by Almost Sleeping Through a Midterm
Feb. 17, 2019—I woke up at 9:39 AM to the sound of pounding on my door. Class had started at 9:35 and it was the day of our first Country Music midterm. The next six minutes were a blur. In that time, I managed to put on a hoodie, grab my backpack, rush down a few flights...
How To Manage Stress Effectively
Apr. 4, 2017—It’s that time of year again. Finals are in a few weeks, professors are holding midterm after midterm, and upcoming recitals and concerts require hours of rehearsal.

On Monday, I had 3 classes- Philosophy 105 (Ethics…currently reading Immanuel Kant’s Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals), Spanish 203 (Spanish Literature-just finished reading La Casa de Bernarda Alba, for all you spanish literature junkies out...
