Hello beautiful people, I can hear my mother laughing “Free-paper bun,” a Jamaican saying that refers to the end of holidays and a return to school. While my summer intern position will be concluded after this, fear not! I will be working at the admission office for the entirety of the year, so feel free to reach me at askastudent@wellesley.edu…

My Tuesdays
Hi Blog Readers, I am writing this right before the start of spring break! As I mentioned in my last post, I am heading back home to Illinois for break and am so excited to see my friends and family back home. Today, I wanted to give another Wellesley Day in the Life post because I feel like these are…
A (busy) day in the life
Hey everyone! It’s midterms season (nay!!), so my life right now revolves around studying, revising, office hours, and more studying. That’s why I decided to do a day-in-the-life this week—for you to get a feeling of what life is like around here right before the midterms start coming in. I woke up this (Wednesday) morning around 7:50 am for my…
A Hectic Thursday
Hi Blog Readers! Today, I want to write about a busy Thursday I had a few weeks ago. My Thursday began early with my 8:30am economics class. I am kind of contradictory in the sense that I love how peaceful early mornings are but also simultaneously like to be a night owl – these two traits are not very compatible!…
Status Update
Happy almost-end of semester! I say this every year, but genuinely this fall went by sooo fast. I flew back home last week for Thanksgiving break and had an awesome time being back with my family. My aunt also stayed with us, and I saw some of my best friends! Now, we just have a few weeks left in the…
Day in the Life
Hi everyone! I haven’t done a day in the life blog recently, so I think that it’s time for one! I’m gonna take you with me through what an average Tuesday looks like in my life. My day starts with an alarm at 7:15 am and leaving the apartment at 7:40 am to catch my 7:52 am bus. I arrive…
Senior Year Reintroductions!
Hello Blog, Welcome back to another (and final </3) year of reading my Wellesley blogs! For a quick round of reintroductions: my name is Jade, I’m officially a senior at Wellesley College (go green class!), I’m a chemistry major and a music minor, and I do a few things on campus, namely being the president of the chamber music society…
MIT Class Day
I want to continue my post from last week and explain what a day in the life looks like when I take my class at MIT! My class is once a week for three hours in the evening. I take the convenient school shuttle, called the loco, to get to MIT’s campus. On weekdays, the loco makes a stop in…
A Day in the Life!
Hi everyone! I realized I haven’t done “a day in the life” in a long time, so here’s one from my Friday during a relatively chill week. 9:18 a.m. I wake up to my alarm (I don’t like my alarms being at a time that ends at 0 or 5 for some reason) for my 9:55 a.m. physics class. My…
Sitting in a College Class
Hi everyone! I know that many of you are probably wondering how going to a college class feels like at Wellesley, what your relationship with your classmates is in college, and how to talk to your professors. So, I thought I would share my experience with those things at Wellesley. I don’t know if it’s just me and my experience…
