More Study Breaks!

Apr. 29, 2011—Studying for finals can get pretty boring/intense/repetitive, so I try to make sure I take sufficient breaks to maintain sanity.

Apr. 25, 2011—Yesterday was Easter, and because most of us will be leaving Vandy in a week or so, not many people went home for the holiday. That’s not to say we didn’t take a break from studying and spend it with loved ones, though.

Rites of Spring

Apr. 18, 2011—This past weekend was Rites of Spring. “What is Rites of Spring?” you may ask. Only the biggest, funnest (look it up, it’s in the dictionary now) concert held at Vanderbilt each year. It lasts for two days and features multiple artists of different genres.

Last Bash!

Apr. 17, 2011—Last Thursday night, AOII had our Last Bash party to say goodbye to the seniors (I realize I’ve blogged about two of the three parties we’ve had this semester which might give you guys the wrong impression, but I promise we’re about a lot more than that. We have our big philanthropy event this Wednesday!).

Just Another Vandy Weekend

Apr. 12, 2011—Weekends at Vanderbilt are never short of things to do, and this weekend was no exception. On Friday night, I went with some friends to an ice rink in Franklin to play broomball with a group from Rolling Hills Community Church. I had gone last semester, and it was so much fun, so I was...

Holi

Apr. 10, 2011—Holi, also known as the Festival of Colors, is one of the most popular celebrations of the year for people of the Hindu faith. It is considered one of the happiest days of the year and this past Saturday, Vanderbilt’s Masala-SACE student organization hosted their very own Holi event on the lawn in front of...

Pancakes at the Pantry! (Courtesy of CityVU)

Apr. 9, 2011—I just left Pancake Pantry. I had a 4:15 reservation. You are probably wondering how this is possible when the restaurant closes at 4. Not only this, but even when the restaurant is open, they do not take reservations. People line up around the block to eat at the Pantry.

Family

Feb. 14, 2011—There comes a time in every college student’s life when they realize that they have a person or group of people that makes them feel completely at home. This could be a roommate, a friend group, an extracurricular organization, a professor, or even a particularly friendly janitor. For me, it’s the Original Cast.

The College Freshman’s Guide to Tough Weeks

Feb. 11, 2011—It’s that time of year when all my classes are picking up and things are starting to pile up on one another. The beginning of this week happened to be particularly bad. I had a busy weekend, including helping put on a Super Bowl party, so I knew I wouldn’t have much time to prepare...

Fridays at Dismas

Feb. 1, 2011—Friday nights I go to the Dismas House. I know what you’re thinking – don’t you have fun on the weekends? Well, yes I do. I really do.
