Hello Blog, Well, it has finally come. My last blog. It has been an absolute joy to write weekly updates about my life for the past 3 (!!!) years. I’m honestly quite emotional about leaving Wellesley, and there’s no way to write that up in a (somewhat) digestible blog post. This was my dream school. I cried so hard when…

Goodbye, Wellesley
Goodbye, Wellesley I’ve been putting off writing this because I wasn’t sure what to say — or how to sum up four years of my life in a single post. The truth is, there’s no perfect way to say goodbye to a place that’s changed you, but here it is. Wellesley wasn’t always easy. There were weeks that felt never-ending,…
It’s Officially SPRING!!!
Hello Blog, SO much has happened in the past few weeks. It is suddenly spring on campus – all of the magnolia trees are blooming, I haven’t touched my winter jacket in weeks, and people are always lounging around outside (especially in the courtyards or dorms). This is one of my favorite times on campus, and normally it’s a pretty…
Senior Spring
Hi all, It’s officially senior spring, and things feel… weird. There’s this strange mix of calm and chaos. On one hand, classes are lighter, the weather’s better, and everyone’s just a little more relaxed. On the other hand, there’s that constant background noise of “what’s next?”—whether that’s jobs, grad school, or figuring it out as we go. Lately, it’s been…
“Having Fun” and “Hanging Out”
Hello Blog, Long time no blog! It’s hard to believe that it’s already MARCH (i.e. close to the halfway mark for the semester). I’ve always found that the spring semester goes much faster than the fall semester, but when it’s your last semester of college, it seems like it’s flying by even faster! People have been asking me a lot…
A Musical Start to the Semester!
Hello Blog, Let’s do the final run down of classes I’m taking for my last semester! CHEM 341: Inorganic chemistry – my final chemistry class at Wellesley! At this point, I’ve exhausted most of the chemistry classes in the department, and this is supposed to be a really fun chemistry course to end on. So far, I’m really enjoying it!…
7 Semesters (almost) Down, 1 to Go…
Hello Blog, And just like that, another fall semester in the books! Fall at Wellesley is always one of my favorite times. You truly cannot beat the fall foliage in New England, and it obviously doesn’t hurt that Wellesley’s campus is beautiful. We even got our first snow of the season, though it didn’t stick for too long. Honestly, as…
The Final Stretch: Wrapping Up the Semester and Looking Ahead to Winter Break
As the semester draws to a close, the energy on campus feels electric. Final papers are being written, group projects are coming together, and the library has become a second home for many. For me, this week is a mix of reflection, determination, and anticipation. It’s my last fall semester, and while that realization carries a touch of nostalgia, it…
Navigating Senior Year at Wellesley College: Embracing Change and Prioritizing Self-Care
As a senior at Wellesley College, this academic year feels like both a culmination of all my hard work and a time to prepare for what’s next. The transition from a relaxed summer schedule to the structure of classes and campus life has its challenges, but it’s also exciting. I’m taking courses in both education and psychology, and it’s been…
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…
