Good morning readers 🙂 Oh dear, you know you’re in trouble if I’m already breaking out the smileys so early in this post! I can’t help it; Wellesley is such a lovely place. I even have an anecdote to share with you to illustrate. A few days ago, I was planning to buy my bus tickets to New York City…

Professors Rule
Hello everyone! Sorry for the late post; it’s been a busy Friday! I worked at Professor A.’s lab from 11am-3pm, ran to weights at the Keohane Sports Center (the other side of campus), ran back to the Science Center to attend Professor A.’s lab group meeting, then ran back to the Keohane Sports Center to teach a swim lesson! Good…
My Wellesley Normal
Hi everyone, It’s going to be a shorter post today; hope you don’t mind! Life is busy as usual, plus I’m getting sick again, so that means I have to spend several hours sleeping that are normally spent doing work :). Anyway, from the beginning of the week… Last weekend was NEWMACs, the end of the season for swimming, and…
Life is Good

And it begins

I am so excited, even though I don’t have class today and I didn’t on Wednesday (when school started.) My schedule is in the process of being adjusted right now (as are many Wellesley students’ schedules), but currently I have class only on Monday,…
It’s December Already!
Hello hello hello! Man, I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve posted! Well, two weeks. I meant to post over thanksgiving, but that didn’t quite get done. Oh well, more to talk about this week! So since two weeks ago is now ancient times (some say that the time goes by quickly. I feel that my days are so…
Its Twists and its Turns
Hello everyone! I have to say, this hasn’t been one of my better weeks. For whatever reason, the past few days haven’t been much fun. But we shall go in chronological order, because there have definitely been some highlights! Last Friday after swim practice, I was sitting at the dining table with some of my fellow first-years (Kendra, Grace, Tiffany,…
