Hey everyone! This semester has gone by so fast! I actually can’t believe that I’m writing this last blog. With the last full week of classes wrapping up, I’m trying to get all of my work done for the semester before finals start in less than two weeks. As I have shared with you before, I will be staying on…

Spring Weekend!!!
Hi everyone! April is a month of contradiction here at Wellesley — the weather is in the 70s one day, the next it’s snowing; there are a ton of social events and people having fun, and everyone is super stressed about deadlines and exams. Last week I was fully embraced by the rainy and stressful side of April. This week…
An exciting week on campus: Solar Eclipse and the Ruhlman Conference
Hey everyone! It has been a really eventful and exciting week on campus. On Monday we experienced a partial eclipse, which was really exciting. There was an event at our observatory where they were giving out special glasses to look at the sun. And I’m not exaggerating when I say that there were hundreds of people there, both Wellesley students,…
Spring is in the air!
Hi everyone! I don’t know what it is about the week after spring break, but somehow it is always a really busy and tiring one. The campus just feels gloomier and quieter than normal. I personally like to blame it on the disrupted sleeping schedules. But the positive side is that since spring break ended, the semester is almost over…
Spring Break!!!
Hi everyone! I’m writing this on a Saturday night at the end of my spring break on campus. I wasn’t planning on getting anything done before tomorrow (yes, I plan not doing things, it’s very necessary sometimes), but I got a burst of energy and decided to check off some stuff off of my to-do list. So, let me tell…
Celebrating traditions in Wellesley
Hi everyone! March is a pretty busy month back home because a few of our bigger holidays are in the first two weeks of that month. The first of March is Baba Marta, a holiday dedicated to the ending of winter and the welcoming of spring. We usually wear red and white bracelets that our family and friends have given…
Homework in College
Hi everyone! I will be honest—this is a really long and busy week for a lot of students at Wellesley, including myself. With spring break right around the corner and the midterms nearing, I’m prepared for a busier schedule in the next couple of days. In the spirit of that, I thought I would share with you what my typical…
A Day in the Life!
Hi everyone! I realized I haven’t done “a day in the life” in a long time, so here’s one from my Friday during a relatively chill week. 9:18 a.m. I wake up to my alarm (I don’t like my alarms being at a time that ends at 0 or 5 for some reason) for my 9:55 a.m. physics class. My…
The Dining Halls on Campus
Hi everyone! I know that food and the dining halls are something that students are always interested in before coming to college. That was definitely the case when I was preparing to come to Wellesley for the first time. This is why I thought it might be useful to tell you about the four dining halls that we have on…
Sitting in a College Class
Hi everyone! I know that many of you are probably wondering how going to a college class feels like at Wellesley, what your relationship with your classmates is in college, and how to talk to your professors. So, I thought I would share my experience with those things at Wellesley. I don’t know if it’s just me and my experience…
