Hi everyone! I’m writing this on a Saturday night at the end of my spring break on campus. I wasn’t planning on getting anything done before tomorrow (yes, I plan not doing things, it’s very necessary sometimes), but I got a burst of energy and decided to check off some stuff off of my to-do list. So, let me tell…

School Year Winding Down
This week one year ago, I visited Wellesley for the first time. I’d applied here early decision two without visiting and I probably didn’t know how to spell Massachusetts. I remember thinking campus was peaceful, beautiful, and I was excited to envision myself here. And now it’s been a year and so much has happened! I seriously cannot believe a…
Spring Weekend
Happy Friday! This past weekend was very fun and hectic. First of all, my cousin visited and stayed with me. On Friday night, my cousin and I went to Newbury Street for dinner. Newbury is an area in Boston with trendy restaurants, cafes, clothing stores, etc. The loco, our school bus shuttle, drops us off right next to Newbury. On…
Busy Saturday
This week’s weather has been SO nice. The sun’s been out, temperature has been in the 70-80s, and people are actually smiling! I want to write about last Saturday. My Saturday started off in Clapp Library. I went to one of the library’s private study rooms and attended a Zoom meeting for a mentorship program that I’m participating in. After…
Spring Break and Updates
Happy April! I’m back on campus after spring break and school’s been busy. This week, I’ve been studying for Chinese and Econ tests. I also have to revise a paper for my first year writing class. If you don’t know what that class is, every Wellesley first year has to take a writing class in their fall or spring semester.…
Spring break here I come!
Hello Blog! I made it! I’ve finished my last classes before spring break, and I will not lie, it has been such a long stretch this semester without a break. The way this semester has worked out is that we have 9 weeks before spring break and only 4-5 weeks including finals after that. The semester has gone by so…
Favorite Spots on Campus
Happy Friday! Today, I want to write about some of my favorite spots on the Wellesley College campus. I’ve mentioned places I like working at, like Clapp Library and the Jewett Art Library. I want to elaborate and add more general spots on campus I enjoy. Behind the Lulu student center, there are some paths that lead to Lake Waban.…
The New Semester Is Ahead
Hello everybody! I hope your weeks are going well. I am finally settling into my new schedule and am getting used to my routine at Wellesley again. This semester I didn’t get into all the classes I hoped, but now I am happy with my schedule. I will be taking CHEM 105, PHYS 107, MATH 205, and ECON 101. The…
The end of my first semester at college
I know how cliche this sounds, but I genuinely can’t believe how fast these past few months have gone by. My first semester at college is over and it felt like a blur. Obviously, a lot has happened. I’m proud of myself for getting through my classes (and I will definitely miss shadow grading) Adjusting to academics, especially the first…
Turkey Vacation
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving break! Mine was great and restful. Before flying back home on Tuesday night, I had to complete an essay and prepare for a take-home midterm. I spent Monday and Tuesday finishing up my essay, studying for my midterm, and packing. Wellesley provided shuttles to Logan Airport, so I took one. I nearly missed…
