Hello everyone! How are you doing? Here, on campus, the semester has really taken off, and, honestly, I have been really busy this past week. And so, I haven’t really done a ton of interesting things (unless, of course, you count going to classes, studying, working, and then more studying as ‘interesting’ or ‘fun’). Since all I have been doing…

First Day of Classes Recap
Happy Friday! Two weeks have gone by very quickly and I enjoy all my classes so far; the material is interesting and I like all my professors. This weekend is going to be interesting because Massachusetts is experiencing extremely cold wind chills and temperatures tomorrow– I plan on staying in my dorm for the majority of the day. Today, I…
Courses, Chromatography, and Carillon!
Hello Blog! I’ll start by an official run down of my courses this semester as promised: CHEM 212: otherwise known as orgo II. I really ended up loving orgo last semester, so I’m excited to continue this semester! A lot of what the course covers actually relates directly to the techniques I use in my research lab, so I’m looking…
The New Semester Is Ahead
Hello everybody! I hope your weeks are going well. I am finally settling into my new schedule and am getting used to my routine at Wellesley again. This semester I didn’t get into all the classes I hoped, but now I am happy with my schedule. I will be taking CHEM 105, PHYS 107, MATH 205, and ECON 101. The…
Winter Break and a New Semester!
Happy New Year and new semester! Spring semester began this week, though it certainly feels much colder than spring right now. It’s been snowing this week, which has slowed down my walks to classes. My winter break was very relaxing and I loved being back home. I spent the break hanging out with friends, watching TV, reading books, practicing driving…
FWOC recap!
Hello Blog! Long time no see! I hope everyone had a restful and joyous holiday season! I spent lots of time with my family and friends, baked many batches of cookies, rediscovered the Goodreads app, tried out a new hobby or two, and of course, got some much needed sleep. It was honestly the perfect amount of break. I had…
My Winter Break
Hello everyone! How has the Winter break been for you? I had a great time back home in Bulgaria with my family. I arrived the day before Christmas, so I didn’t have a lot of time to rest or fix my sleep schedule before all the crazy around the holidays started. Nevertheless, I was really excited to see my family…
The end of my first semester
Hello dear readers! Yes, it’s that time of the year. The semester is (almost) officially over, and everyone is leaving campus. I personally will be leaving tomorrow: I will be flying back home to Bulgaria through Germany. My Big (assigned older student that acts as your sibling on campus) from Slater and I will actually be traveling together as she…
The end of my first semester at college
I know how cliche this sounds, but I genuinely can’t believe how fast these past few months have gone by. My first semester at college is over and it felt like a blur. Obviously, a lot has happened. I’m proud of myself for getting through my classes (and I will definitely miss shadow grading) Adjusting to academics, especially the first…
LDOC
Hello everybody! The end of the semester is finally here! I am so excited to go home soon. Even the upcoming finals can’t kill my mood. Of course, it is sad that today is the LDOC (last day of classes, I promise you that this is a part of the Wellesley vocabulary) because I will really miss some of my…
