Thriving and Surviving

Long time no see! I reveled in spring break. I thrived! Albeit it wasn’t your typical spring break like that you’d see in the movies, but it was well lived. I spent time at the beach, with my boyfriend and my friends, and ate some amazing food. My friend from high school had recently came back to Miami from college…

Finals & Internship Real Talk

Hello! Let’s just put it this way, finals week is hitting hard! This term has been pretty nice such that I’ve been able to balance academics and free time very well. Then, finals week came along and hit like a trainwreck. I am partly joking and partly not. On the bright side, it’s just one week of full focus mode,…

Take yourself on a date

Hi! With one more week of class left, we’re now in the thick of this term. It’s hard not to feel stressed at the moment; Next week, I have my final and a few days after that is the deadline for my research paper. I am looking forward to the spring break week we have in between T3 and T4,…

Premature graduation anxiety

Hi everyone! The term is more than halfway through…it goes by very quickly.

Birthday’s and Song of the week?

Hi everyone! This week has been quite nice. Despite having a midterm tomorrow, I spent this weekend with family celebrating my cousin’s birthday and took some time to relax. I also took time to study in case you were worrying about my midterm tomorrow.    My cousin who moved to Miami in the midst of COVID turned 26 this weekend.…

Stress Olympics

Hi! We’re almost halfway through the term? This is pretty crazy considering we’re only three weeks in. Despite that, the term is going pretty well for me! I feel like the previous terms felt so rushed and fast-paced, and while this term is certainly going by quickly it doesn’t have the same “can’t take a break” feeling.    However, I…

The Term is Rewind!

It’s the end! I am taking my final on Monday, and this has called for a bunch of studying and reflection. Looking back at the past two terms, I am dedicating this post to the lessons I’ve learned as a remote college student and all that entails.    It’s not the same. Being on campus, surrounded by peers in classrooms…

Nearing the End

Finals are once again creeping up. I have a midterm this Tuesday so I spent most of this week studying, and meeting up with my group for some study sessions as well. It’s been a pretty stressful week since it’s the second to last week of the term and the last round of midterms and finals are looming around.   …
