Long time, no see, my dear readers! So much has happened since I last wrote to you from Copenhagen. Things have fallen back into place, into new formations, and I’m starting my senior year with kind of clarity that earlier in my Wellesley career I would never have expected. I’ll just run through the last few months of my life,…

A Heart to Heart in Denmark
How do I even begin to wrap up my days in this beautiful, hyggeligt place? Yes, it’s the first of May, and I have officially less than two weeks left in Denmark. I can feel my heart sinking in my throat upon just typing that sentence. Being here has taught me so much. Living in Denmark has brought a degree…
Castles in the Sky
Hello again! Lots has happened since I last wrote, but not a lot that I can tell you officially right now. Let’s just say that I’ve been interviewing for research positions where I can do my senior thesis this summer and the upcoming academic year. One of the benefits of being abroad this semester was that I actually had a…
Café Hoop
I become a Noopie (New Hoopie)last week. Café Hoop is a student-run café in the bottom of our student center the Lulu Chow Wang Campus Center. (Hoopies are people who work at the Hoop). In my opinion, it is one of the best places on campus. I fell in love with it the first time I went there during my first…
Looking forwards
The two weeks in between London and Barcelona have been decidedly down to business. For starters, given that there are only two classroom weeks in March, this means that I have a test in every class. In the case of my medical biotechnology class, I have a test accompanied by two papers, a reflection, a presentation, and an interview with…
A (Pharmaceutical) Tour of Denmark
Well, I didn’t update you all last week, but in my defense I was in Western Denmark. This is a clever term for Americans who know nothing of Denmark’s geography; the Danes would never call it “Western Denmark”. No, I visited Aarhus and Odense, Denmark’s second and third biggest cities respectively. Essentially, we were on a weeklong field trip, “we”…
Adulting Adventures
It’s the day after Christmas, and I just got back from the dentist. My life since returning home from Wellesley seems to be full of an awful lot of “adult” moments these days. I’ve only been home four days, but I’ve already been to the doctor, dentist, gotten my cracked phone fixed, learned first hand about credit history, and gotten…
The Final Finals, and what’s next
It’s towards the latter days of finals period, and campus has already started to empty out for the holidays. Watching my friends leave is always difficult, made worse by the fact that as I’m going abroad, I won’t see them for months. It isn’t made better by the fact that while they’re snapchatting reunions with their dogs, I’m mostly stuck…
