Hello, Blog! I am glad to say I have spent another week eating good food and seeing what London has to offer. Here’s what I got up to! In an effort to continue my London initiation, my flatmates took me out to a British pub called J.D. Wetherspoons, commonly known as “Spoons,” where we enjoyed drinks and delicious chocolate fudge…

Goodbye October!
Hi everyone! Fall in Wellesley is an amazing time: the trees are full of color, the leaves are gorgeous, it’s not yet cold, and the animals are constantly moving around (I especially love the squirrels running everywhere). It is also exam season, which can bring down the mood a little, but hey, all in all, the fall season is one…
Religious Life at Wellesley
Hi Blog Readers! Today, I want to write about a topic I have not discussed before on the blog—religious life for students here at Wellesley. I think there are two main ways to engage with religious and spiritual life at Wellesley. Firstly, there is the college’s Office of Religious and Spiritual Life (ORSL). ORSL has Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Buddhist, Muslim,…
Beakers, Blunders, and Monday Vibes 🧪
Greetings, my lovely readers! I hope y’all are doing well and having a great week 😄. This week for me has definitely been interesting to say the least….

Changing Leaves and Changing Playlists
Hello, Blog! October is surely flying by, and I’m finally getting a taste of the typical London weather: rainy, grey, and wet. Rather than let this get my spirits down, I’ve decided to embrace the persistent gloom and see a silver lining in the overcast skies. This week, I conducted what is one of my favorite annual projects—formulating the perfect…
Study locations power ranking using BeReals
Hi everyone! I had this idea to tell you about my week through my BeReals. For those who might not know what that is, BeReal is a social media app that goes off once a day at a random time, and you have to take a photo of you at that exact moment. The idea sounded fun in my head,…
Tower Court Tales: Friends, Food, and Full Stomachs
Greetings, my lovely readers!I hope y’all are doing well and having a great week 😄. In my case, I am reaching the end of midterm season and so I have truly been working 24/7 (I am so tired y’all I can’t even lie….😅). But, the end is in sight, so I’m happy about that! Anyways, for this week’s blog I…
Finding Out Who’s Scarier: Ghostface or Regina George?
Hello, Blog! Yet another week has passed and I’ve run into nary a British celebrity—not even Harry Styles on a Lime bike. In other words, nothing particularly interesting has transpired in the world of Camden on account of my dutiful attendance to many English lectures and seminars. While I find the subject matter to be quite interesting, I refuse to…
Fall Break in New York 🍁
Hi Blog Readers! This past weekend was fall break. Fall break at Wellesley is a long weekend every year in mid-October where we do not have classes on the Monday (Indigenous Peoples’ Day) and Tuesday. Combined with the weekend, that is four days off. Wellesley students like to use fall break to travel, rest, and catch up on schoolwork. During…
Fall Break
Hi everyone! Fall break was this past weekend, and it was a much needed rest (and time to catch up with work if you are a busy senior). Here are some of the things I did during this break: 1. My friends and I had an early Halloween inspired night. We reserved the TV room in Stone-Davis and watched some…
