Hello blog, and happy Monday! Today has been a very long and very cold day, but it’s been a pretty okay one. This past week has really been very long and very cold, but there have been many highlights, some of which I’m here to tell you all about. First of all, I’m making great progress on my knitting…

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…
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…
The Fire of September
Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This is the first real week of classes, and I’m beginning to realize that I really need to straighten out my priorities if I want to do everything that I want to do on campus; I’m taking five classes, working three jobs, and participating in a music ensemble this semester, which is quite a…
Just About Wrapped Up
Happy Thursday, dear readers! Today is going to be a great day; I don’t know how your morning went, but mine started with chocolate chip pancakes and bacon at Tower, which is always a great omen! We’re closely approaching the end of the semester here at Wellesley; we had our final HOCO on Tuesday, tomorrow is the last day…
Life On Top of the World
To quote Ferris Bueller, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” I find this to be especially true of life at Wellesley. I had always heard that at Wellesley College time moves at a different rate than normal time, but I don’t think I really understood what that…
Halfway Through the Semester!
You know that moment when you walk into a test and sit down, realizing that you totally forgot to study for a whole section of the material? Thankfully, that wasn’t me during my Computer Science midterm last week. This blog post is coming to you a whole week late because I had to use all of my free time…
Hi! I’m New! :)
Starting off honestly, I’ve been trying to write this blog post for a couple of hours. I want to seem friendly and approachable, but also informative – and I’m trying to be informative without being pedantic. I want you guys to read this and be inspired to come to Wellesley (a place I already love so much!), like I…
Walking Around Campus 2.0
Hey, Last week, I promised I would give you guys my walking around Wellesley playlist. Some music, (a mix of genres) that I like to walk with (and occasionally dance to) around campus. Here it is: I hope you guys like the music on here. This is not an exhaustive list, (I have so much music), but this is a…
I Meet My Violin Idol
Thursday afternoon, the sun is just starting to slant down. I’m walking down the train station platform, listening to my latest read: Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (2016 commencement speaker, but I digress) when I see a familiar face. It’s Sarah, from my molecular genetics class, and she’s clutching a Styrofoam container…the kind of container doctors carry through the streets…
