February is a short month, but such an intense one! Sheesh! But it’s half-over, having already been split by Valentine’s day! I hope everybody had a good one! Wellesley celebrated with waffles! I must say, we have a pretty good snack game. Now, on to tackle the rest of the month. Ethos (organization for women of African descent, of which…

Add AND Drop
Whew! Okay I’m back for Spring 2011! I’ve done a lot of stuff in the two weeks that we’ve been in school, but I can’t say it’s been super exciting. Let’s see, to begin the semester I moved in all my new stuff. My best friend and I showed off our newest purchases (if you guys participated in the last…
Wintersession
It’s finals week! Yippee! I’m not being totally sarcastic either. Finals means that it’s almost time to be reunited with family and old friends, to take a breather and enjoy the break. For those of us that celebrate the holidays that fall around this time, doing so is awesome! Okay, so the next month and a half will go sort…
Roses, Thorns and Buds
Okay, I'll start by explaining the title of this post. Sometimes, at my meetings for Wellesley College TV, our producer (a really cool junior) will have us start by giving a rose (a good thing that happened to us) a thorn (something not so good) and a bud (something that we're hopeful about). Soooo, that's what I will do for…
Tradeoffs
Whew – back from Thanksgiving break! It was really nice to see not only my family, but also my dear friends from high school. Believe it or not, you may eventually miss the high school classmates who get on your nerves now. I’ll admit that I didn’t do much homework during the break though. In my high school, some teachers…
Break Plans
Welp, I’m on my last few classes before Thanksgiving break. I’m really blessed in that I’ll be going all the way home for the holiday. I’ve become really well-acquainted with airports in the past three semesters. Many of my friends are staying though. There are only a few weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas, so staying certainly isn’t the end of…
Busy!!!
Okay, I’m going to try and be perky for you guys – my Mondays are sort of long and my petals are already drooping. Let’s see; so far, I’ve done some reading, been to class, printed and dropped off an application, lunched with a friend, and now I’m blogging in the admissions office. After this, I know there will be…
Major Happenings!
So I’m in the BEST mood! Something to know about Wellesley women: scratching something of the To-Do list makes us VERY happy. I just sent my major declaration form to the Psychology Department chair, who will approve it (he told me so!) and sent it to my major advisor, who will also approve it. So, by this time tomorrow, I…
Why I Applied
Guess what? I’m sick! *sigh* Therefore, I have been trying to keep adventures to a minimum. I even had to miss most of a party that Women for Caribbean Development threw – the photos make me jealous. 🙁 Hopefully I should be back in the saddle by the online chat on November 4th. (yaaay!) I did muster the strength to go…
Moms and Advisors
I’m giddy from the best care package ever!!! I won’t tell you guys exactly what my mom sent, but just know that Godiva and Dillard’s (ya’ll Southerners know what that is) were involved. My advice to parents – be creative, and throw something in for the roommates. Parents: Care packages don't stop after first year. From Godiva.com Anyway, that lovely…
