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…

Lip Sync Champions and Other Snapshots from a Week Well-Lived

Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This week has been crazy busy! Since I last wrote to you, I’ve been to a tree-lighting, gone Christmas shopping, played at Holiday Open Tower, and- drumroll, please- won Wellesley’s Fall 2021 Lip-Sync Competition! For those of you who may be unfamiliar with the event, Lip-Sync is a twice yearly competition held by Wellesley’s House…

“Is This Heaven?”

Hello blog, and happy Wednesday!   Even more importantly, happy December!   December is my absolute favorite time of the year. I’m a little bit Christmas-obsessed, and it’s totally my Grandma Terry’s fault: my birthday is December 20th, and when I was younger I would always go spend the weekend with her to celebrate my birthday. In elementary school I…

Staying Afloat

Hello blog, and happy Wednesday!   This has been kind of a rough week for me, so this blog will be dedicated to some of the little things to celebrate since I last wrote.   Anastasija’s Birthday!   My good friend Anastasija turned 20 last Thursday, so the two of us ordered McDonalds for dinner that night, and on Saturday…

A Fall Break to Remember

Hello blog, and happy Wednesday!    Today is the first day back from fall break here at Wellesley, and I am feeling very reenergized. Here’s a brief rundown of everything I did over my fall break:   Saturday: Guild Field Trip! The Wellesley College Guild of Carillonneurs visited a conference in Cohasset, Massachusetts for the Northeast chapter of the Guild…

June, July, August, and Now

June was hot, I was finally fully vaccinated, and the whole summer stretched ahead of me. I biked with Adeline on the South Shore, met Maddie in Boston for donuts, and walked Crosstown Trail with a friend from home. I ran the Callahan trails, got takeout from Green Leaf, and had to say goodbye to my doggo, Tootsie.  July saw…

Spring Breakers

Howdy, blog, and happy Thursday!   Spring break is in full swing here at Wellesley, and I could not be happier about how things are going so far. Even the fire alarm testing in my dorm every morning starting at nine am couldn’t kill my good mood. In celebration of the total awesomeness that has been this week, I’ll be…

April Come She Will

Happy April Fools! Today marks the second day of reading period here at Wellesley, which is no laughing matter. I’m currently knee deep in research for my final history essay, and I’m preparing to take my Tolstoy exam tomorrow, too.   I will be the first to admit that this term definitely kicked my butt, and at the end of…
