I mentioned before classes started that I’m taking more credits than I need. 1.5 of my current credits are required for my major, and another is my fourth 300-level course, so there are two that I could drop: anthropology of Latin America and philosophy of language. But I have a problem. I love them both. Anthropology is with my major…

Hello blog, and happy Monday! I’m going to be totally honest with you all: we’ve really reached the time of year where I’m running very low in my capacity to do all things college and desperately counting down the days until I get to go home. In my time at Wellesley, I’ve found that I’m much more prone to…
Monday, Monday
Hello blog, and happy Monday! In the interest of full transparency, I think it’s important that I let you know I’m actually writing this post Sunday evening. I have a lot of assignments due at the front end of this week, and I’m really trying to stay on top of things by getting a couple of my usual Monday…
Another Week in the Life
Hello blog, and happy Monday! Today has been a very long and very cold day, but it’s been a pretty okay one. This past week has really been very long and very cold, but there have been many highlights, some of which I’m here to tell you all about. First of all, I’m making great progress on my knitting…
Presidents’ Day (It’s Time to Reflect)
Hello blog, and happy Monday! Today I am feeling very grateful for time off and time in between, and the rest of this blog post will be, in some way or another, an elaboration on that idea. First of all, today was Presidents’ Day, which means I had a beautiful three day weekend. Personally, I think every weekend…
A Trip to Global Flora
Hello blog, and happy Monday! More importantly, happy Valentine’s Day! I think the theme of this month so far has been work, and I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel, where I can go to bed at ten o’clock, wake up at nine, sweep the Dorito crumbs off of my floor and finally do…
February Seven
Hello blog, and happy Monday! Today marks my first post of February, which is very exciting to think about. We’re only one week away from one of the year’s best holidays: Valentine’s Day! I was always a huge Valentine’s Day as a kid. When I was in elementary school, we used to call our classroom Valentine parties “Friendship…
Walking in a Winter Wonderland
Hello blog, and happy Monday! Wellesley is looking a little different today than it was last time I wrote: this weekend New England was hit by a blizzard and we got what I read was maybe sixteen inches of snow. Being from Iowa, this was much less of a big deal to me than it was to a lot…
Always Something to Celebrate
Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This time next week, I will be writing to you from back home in Iowa, where I’ll be spending my November break. Five days of family, food, and rest sounds like exactly what I need right now, and I cannot wait. Before I can get to that, though, there are a few other things…
Planning Ahead
Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This has been a very eventful week; it seems like something is always happening at Wellesley, and while I do love that I never have to look far to be entertained, I’m definitely looking forward to the break we’ll be getting later on this month. I think it’ll be nice to have a few…
