Currently writing this post from the Boston Public Library. I’ve always been a huge fan of libraries and bookstores, because I really liked the librarians at my high school and for most of middle and high school I was a huge bookworm. I used to spend a lot of time at the Clapp Library on campus, but recently it’s been…

Busy with non-academic stuff, as always.
I’ve never been a big fan of Valentine’s day. If I want chocolate I’ll buy it myself or just eat whatever my roommate left in the room – that’s no holiday … that’s everyday. But this year I really felt the vday spirit. The two valentines I did receive were from two of my closest friends, the same two who…
Snow Days
It’s been snowing a lot so I’ve spent a lot of time indoors. But on the rare occasions I do step outside, the campus looks awesome. We’ve had so many snow days in the two and a half weeks of spring semester, that I’m still definitely in break mode. It’s been great being back on campus and hanging out with…
Getting Back in the Rhythm
Hi, it’s been a while. Hope you all had a great winter break, and are starting back up again in school smoothly. After school got out for WinterSession in December, I spent an amazing 5 weeks back home in Tokyo. I remember last winter, after my first semester of college and being abroad, I was so excited to be back…
Support Systems
People weren’t kidding when they said sophomore year was going to be hectic. My semester so far has consisted of going from one class to another and back to back meetings. I also joined a society on campus called Alpha Phi Sigma, a lecture society, and that’s taken up a lot of my time as well. I’ve met such amazing…

My friends and family knew this, of course, and the celebration of my bday lasted for a week this year. and I loved every minute of it. My…
A Busy, Beautiful Weekend

A Much Needed Break
***~~~ Fall Break ~~~ *** I spent the long weekend on campus and in Boston. The past few days has made me realize how much I love this season (especially in New England) and how attached I am to my roommate. She was gone the for three days and it felt like FOREVER. #vscocam I had a great lunch with…
Wellesley Life – it’s a balancing act.
My life: Slater, Phi Sig, consent (see SAAFE), cats, and my roommate. (Studying Eating in preparation for) Midterms It’s midterm season here at Wells and you can sense it all throughout the school. Tensions are high, study rooms are full, and the WiFi at times frustratingly slow. Especially in the Clapp Library where I used to spend the majority of my…
