To be honest, I have been procrastinating on this post for a long while now. I couldn’t really get myself to write a farewell junior year post, given how the semester ended so abruptly and whatnot. Special thanks to Sophia for nudging me to post this! Anyway, I thought it would be best to reflect on what a whirlwind year…

What I’ve Been Doing in Quarantine
Hello hello! I hope everyone reading this is having a good day and staying healthy! It’s been about six weeks since I’ve been back from Wellesley (time just flies). Today I thought it would be nice to just share some of my favorite things to do while at home. Here’s what has been keeping sane: Netflix Party + Zoom On…
A Week in the Life: Quarantine Edition
Hello y’all! I am still under a shelter-in-place order here in Northern California, so my family has been staying inside except for walks around our neighborhood! We have had awesome weather this week –– yesterday it was 80º –– which is definitely making it harder to stay inside. Online classes are in full swing and I have established a solid…
10 More Wonderful Aspects About Wellesley
Happy April everyone! Today concludes Wellesley’s first week of online classes/remote learning. I’d say it was a success, and I’m slowly getting back into the swing of the semester. I can’t even begin to say how much I miss my friends, professors, and campus, but I’ll take Zoom classes over nothing any day. Anyway, I’m back again this week, to…
Welcome 2024!

Boxing It All Up
Last Wednesday, I sat in the quad playing a card game with my friend Anna. One week later, I write to you from my bed in California. What a week it has been. To be entirely honest, this week was the longest of my life. There were many tears and hard goodbyes, but I was also reminded over and over…
Chem Midterm and a Quick Jaunt to Vermont
It is officially midterms season folks. Like many of my peers, I had an incredibly busy week with assignments due in almost all of my classes. I’ve been practicing lots of self-care by enjoying the warm weather we’ve been having and reading outside. It has been exhausting at times but overall a great week. I had my first chem midterm…
Introductions! Introductions! Introductions!
Hello y’all! My name is Caroline and I’m about halfway through my second semester back at Wellesley. I was born and raised in Walnut Creek, California –– in the San Francisco Bay Area –– and I’m loving life on the East Coast. I am an avid reader, coffee drinker, lover of politics and fresh flowers, Ben & Jerry’s connoisseur, and…
It’s Friday, I’m in love (with my schedule)
Hello hello! Hope everyone had a good week! Current status: It’s almost the weekend, it’s sunny (but cold), and it’s the last week of February. We just wrapped up week 5 of the semester, so I thought it would be fitting to write about what my schedule is like on a typical Friday. Fridays are my chill days, because I…
walking around the lake
It’s been a quiet week so this will be a shorter post. The most exciting thing I did this week was walk around the lake. Many Wellesley students will tell you that one of their favorite things about Wellesley is the Waban. The lake is one of my favorite things as well. When I was studying abroad, I always ended…
