Wow! This semester is flying by. September is almost over! But don’t worry, my crew and I have been making the most of the nice fall weather while it lasts. Last weekend, on Friday, we went to tie dying and s’mores roasting by the campus center. It was such a blast:) Then on Saturday night, we went into Cambridge to…

Back to the Grind (With a Grin)
Hello lovely readers! I missed you! And blogging! But now I’m back:) Yay! Returning to Wellesley as a sophomore is a totally new experience. Yeah, I was still a little anxious while packing up my things and driving away from home. But this time I knew what I was headed for. And so I was excited in a way I…
Only Just Beginning
Today, I am sad to say, is my last blog post of the semester. I have enjoyed blogging so much, I’m sad to see it end. This whole year has been such a roller coaster! And although there were times when all I wanted to do was go home and sleep, I can honestly say that this was one of…
Fun Weekend:)
This past weekend was awesome! Our meet at Fitchburg State went well. I bettered my 400 meter hurdle time by more than half a second:) And I got to watch one of my teammates win the steeplechase! It was pretty cool. Then on Sunday, my SAAC (Student Athlete Advisory Committee) team hosted a dodgeball tournament. It was held in the…
Difficult Week
I apologize for the late posting of my blog. This week has been a difficult one. On Monday, I experienced my first Marathon Monday. The festivities were wild and exciting. I watched the runners. I screamed at, clapped for, and high-fived many of them. I was moved by fathers wheeling their sons in wheelchairs and those who ran with prosthetics.…
Rubber Ducks, Registration (and everything in between)
It’s been a loooong week:) This past weekend, we had a track meet at American International College in Springfield. My parents and my aunt came to see me run the 100 meter hurdles. It was cold and windy but still fun! My good friend Madeline had her debut in the steeplechase. It was a lot of fun to cheer her…
Track and Studying (But Mostly Track;) )
I have now participated in my first collegiate track meet!!! It was so wonderful:) I LOVE track. <3 Our first meet (this past weekend) was at Mount Holyoke College. I ran the 4X100 (100 meter relay), the 100 hurdles, and the 4X400 (400 meter relay). The 4X100 was really cool because I’d never run that event before. I was kind…

Wellesley Beauty
Hello everyone! Wow, this week has flown by. I can’t believe its already Thursday. Tomorrow afternoon I’ll be headed home for a nice visit with my family.
