Going over my previous blog post, I realized that I did not share with you what I learned at Wellesley so here’s a list of some of the things I learned about life as a college student: – Email accounts, Google, Google Calendar, Sakai, Wikipedia (don’t judge me), alarms, smartphones, laptops, laptop chargers and the internet in general are your…

School’s Out!
Dear readers, SCHOOL IS OUT! Thank goodness. I love school, but that’s easier said as a blanket statement than when you’re about to take a two-and-a-half hour final. I was very lucky and only had two finals, Neuro 320 and Organic Chemistry II, along with two final projects, one for Making a Difference through Engineering (WE-lab!) and one for Computer…
Wellesley Beauty
Hello everyone! Wow, this week has flown by. I can’t believe its already Thursday. Tomorrow afternoon I’ll be headed home for a nice visit with my family. I’m looking forward to taking a few long, relaxing runs around my town. Speaking of running, we did a hill work out at track practice this week. It was intense. The first couple weren’t…
Our Magic
Hello readers 🙂 Last week was a bit hectic, what with two exams on Friday, and this week proves to be busy as well. But spring break is just a week away; sentiments of this sort are scrawled across whiteboards all around campus :). My first challenge for the week is to interview for the Beckman scholarship. This is a…
Midterm Week!
Hello everyone! It’s midterm week. I’ve been goin hard since Monday. But tomorrow at 2:40 I’ll be all done. (That’s when Astronomy ends.) And I am going to sleep FOREVER! Hehe:) Not really. I have track practice at 7:30am on Saturday. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger? Speaking of track!!!!! omgomgomg. I officially hurdled yesterday! It was wonderful! I…
Alumni and Eyetrackers
Hello readers! Oof, it’s set out to be a busy two weeks! I’ve finally hit mid-term season (which happened to a bunch of my friends last week—I don’t envy them), this Friday’s my organic chemistry midterm, and next week are my computer science and neuroscience midterms. As such, my days are getting planned by the hour so that I can…
I’m Baaaaack!
Hello everyone! I’m back:) I’m not gonna lie… It’s tough to come back after break. I miss my family and my good friends from high school a lot. I got back Sunday afternoon about the same time one of my roommates returned. We had a good reunion and we both agreed it was a little sad to be back after…
And it’s Beautiful
Good afternoon, readers :). It is my time of the year. After classes end (which they did yesterday), Wellesley holds “reading period,” a time when the whole campus is silent as people study for finals. It is a time to review everything that we learned over the past semester, not worry about assignments and due dates, and just sit down…
Footprints to the stars
Hello everyone :), I have some recent bad news, and some week-long good news. Why not start with the bad first, so I can go onto everything that was great this week? The bad news is that I possibly gave myself a stress fracture in my foot. I am off to the Newton/Wellesley hospital right now to get an x-ray…
Smell the Roses
Good evening everyone! Sorry I’m late—my schedule on Fridays is as follows: get up, go to work at 10:30-2:30pm, run to practice from 2:45-5:30pm, teach a swim lesson from 6:00-6:30pm, eat dinner, then write this blog. So either I write the blog before I go to work, or I write it after my day is over… and since college students…
