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…

Monday Day in my Life
Happy end of the school week! I love watching people’s day in my life videos on YouTube, so I decided to do the same here in this blog post. Today, I will go through what an average Monday—the busiest day of my week—looks like for me this semester. This semester, most of my classes are in the late afternoon. On…

Phenotypically Black, Spiritually Brazilian & Italian
HEY BLOGGIES. I’ve been super excited for this blog post in particular because I really didn’t expect to have done almost any of the things I participated in this past week! It seems this summer break has really aided in the fostering of my own spontaneity. Here’s the song that’s been on repeat for me this week, Chammak Challo by…

Spring Break!!!
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…

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…

Homework in College
Hi everyone! I will be honest—this is a really long and busy week for a lot of students at Wellesley, including myself. With spring break right around the corner and the midterms nearing, I’m prepared for a busier schedule in the next couple of days. In the spirit of that, I thought I would share with you what my typical…

Cross Registration
I want to dedicate this week’s post to talking about cross registration! This semester, I am taking an economic history class at MIT, and this is my first time cross registering. First of all, the facts: Wellesley students can take one class per semester at MIT, Babson College, Olin College of Engineering, or Brandeis University. First-year, first-semester students cannot cross…

New Semester, New Me
Happy spring semester! It’s a new year, new semester, and I’m feeling optimistic. Spring is my favorite time at Wellesley: the weather slowly gets warmer, it no longer gets dark at four pm, and there’s the promise of summer not so far away. I had a hectic but enjoyable winter break. I headed back home and went on an overnight…

Winter Break and First Two Weeks Back on Campus
Hi everyone! Winter break ended two weeks ago, and I’m officially back in academic mode. I absolutely loved winter break. I went back home to Bulgaria, and I slept a lot. With the stress around finals season last semester, I didn’t sleep a lot, so I was really excited to sleep during the break. I saw a lot of my…
