Hi to all, I had an awesome time this weekend. It was Friends and Family/Homecoming Weekend. It was also Discover Wellesley Weekend. (Pretty busy I know). Although no one from my family came to visit, I still enjoyed the benefits of Friends and Family weekend, including the food. Harambee House, the place on campus that serves Wellesley students of African…

Spring-ness
So I’m coming off of a 3 day weekend! Fuuuuun, fun, fun, fun! It was Spring Week. Events included a Wale concert (free.99 to Wellesley students, $10 off-campus), a hip hop dance performance, and (my personal favorite) the annual Ethos fashion show! The theme this year was Avant-Garde, and it was just that! The weekend was capped with Marathon Monday!…
R & R
This weekend was super fun! I enjoyed going into Cambridge and Boston. Wellesley is beautiful, but I’m really glad that there is a city nearby.

First we went here: My nutty friends, right in their element. There were a LOT of Christmas decorations – really, really weird mechanical ones. That sort of…
You almost didn’t get to see this. :)
You almost didn’t get to see this because on Monday through Thursday, homework is my first priority – I’m not sure I would have lasted this long (about eight weeks) if it wasn’t. You almost didn’t get to see this because I put in a little time each weeknight at the campus center. You almost didn’t get…
Groups and Mentoring
I’m going to indulge in a stereotype here – if you’re the type of girl who is seriously considering Wellesley, you’re probably involved in some extracurricular activities at your high school. I definitely was – even if I wasn’t in a club, people assumed I was a member! I intended to take it easy on the extracurricular activities…
