Spring break rowing in SC

Over spring break, I finally got to experience the fabled spring training trip to Clemson, South Carolina! The crew team drives south every spring break to row on the big and beautiful Lake Hartwell, soak up some sun (maybe too much), and get away from Wellesley for a while.  Classes ended Friday, and we took off that afternoon on an…

The Countdown Begins

Hello blog, and happy Monday!    It was a beautiful spring day in Massachusetts today, and while I spent most of it inside at the Computing Help Desk in Clapp Library, I have managed to get outside quite a bit in the past week. Last Tuesday, my friend Emma and I took a walk as far as we could around…

“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…

The Wellesley College Guild of Carillonneurs visited a conference in Cohasset, Massachusetts for the Northeast chapter of the Guild…

Already four weeks in Spain?!

I know I said this last week, but really, time flies in Córdoba… and in Seville and Granada, where I spent time this weekend. I just got back from an overnight to Granada with the whole Preshco group. My ears are plugged from the change in altitude, so I’m chewing tasteless gum and nursing my water bottle. I read an…

Spring Break [And Senior Week!]

Hello hello! Term 4 has hit hard, and I am insanely behind on posting. The thesis is due in less than two weeks! I started to write today’s post on FDOC and never quite finished. Here it is! Happy FDOC (first day of classes)! Today marks my last first day of college, ever. Wild! I won’t get into too much…

One week in Spain

I have been in Spain for a week! It’s been a good week. I’ve kept myself busy just walking around Córdoba, getting sorbet from different gelato places, and, of course, going to class.  First, the walking. Córdoba is home to four UNESCO World Heritage sites. The hotel where we spent the first four days was right near the Roman bridge…
