Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! Today is a very important blog; this is my last blog of the semester!! Now, I know what you might be thinking: Andrew, didn’t you say you were on campus for another week? Why won’t you be blogging on the 22nd? Well, good people of the Blogosphere, I have good news and…

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…
“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…
Sunshine Sneak Attack!
Happy Thanksgiving break! My Monday and Tuesday classes ended up going virtual so I decided to start my break a little bit early- maybe a lot early. I ended up coming home on Sunday night since I live less than an hour away from Wellesley. This week at home, I plan on pretending all the school work and stress has…
Always Something to Celebrate
Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This time next week, I will be writing to you from back home in Iowa, where I’ll be spending my November break. Five days of family, food, and rest sounds like exactly what I need right now, and I cannot wait. Before I can get to that, though, there are a few other things…
Planning Ahead
Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This has been a very eventful week; it seems like something is always happening at Wellesley, and while I do love that I never have to look far to be entertained, I’m definitely looking forward to the break we’ll be getting later on this month. I think it’ll be nice to have a few…
Just One of Those Weeks
Good morning blog! Spooky Season has officially come to a close and, while Halloweekend was incredible, I am completely drained after non-stop spookiness. This was my first and last weekend off for a while, so I needed to make the most of it. I tried to cram in as much as possible: Shabbat services, Munger Mash, an ungodly amount of…
Staying Afloat
Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This has been kind of a rough week for me, so this blog will be dedicated to some of the little things to celebrate since I last wrote. Anastasija’s Birthday! My good friend Anastasija turned 20 last Thursday, so the two of us ordered McDonalds for dinner that night, and on Saturday…
A Wonderful Weekend
Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This is a magical and momentous week for a number of reasons. Most importantly: I HAVE OFFICIALLY DECLARED MY MAJOR!! As of this evening, I am officially an Education Studies major! I have an advisor and a major plan and a whole bunch of future plans and I could not be more…
Opening Doors
Hello blog, and happy Wednesday! This has been a week of a lot of things, as most weeks are. I think one of the best things about Wellesley is that there are always so many different things happening all at once, but sometimes that means you have to bury your head in the sand a little bit and stay…
