Hi Blog Readers, Last week was Thanksgiving break, and next week is the end of classes! I wanted to use this post to quickly recap my break and what I have been up to in my classes. Tuesday was the last day of classes before break at Wellesley, and I flew back home to Illinois that evening. The college offers…

Euro-Birthday-Extravaganza Pt. 2
Hello, Blog! After my trip to Paris in the last blog, it was hard to imagine my sister and I would follow it up with such a fun-filled week in London, but we did it (thank you Olivia for your detailed planning)! Last week, after arriving back in London from Paris, we brought our luggage to my flat and headed…

Un Voyage à Paris
Hello, Blog! Wait…actually…bonjour? This week so far has been FABULOUS and so full of new experiences and phenomenal food. On Friday after class, I met up with my sister, Olivia, who had just flown from Brooklyn, New York to London for our ten-day-double-birthday-Europe-extravaganza. We went back to my flat, packed our bags, and headed over to St. Pancras International to…
Guys, it’s getting serious

My 21st Birthday: A Day Full of Love, Laughter, and Little Joys
Greetings my lovely readers! This past Saturday was one for the books because……your girl officially turned 21!!! 🥳 Honestly, I still can’t believe it — part of me feels like very grown lmaoo, while the other part of me still wants to be in bed watching Netflix instead of being a real adult. Mind you guys I have literally been…
Music, Museums, and Matcha: A Week in my London Life
Hello, Blog! I’ve had another great week, so much so that I’ve barely even felt the annual post-Halloween depression I’ve come to expect after the decorations go away and the candy goes back to regular packaging. This could also be due to the fact that I’m still carrying out my Fall Watchlist and the mountain of Halloween movies I still…
Good food, interesting science
I feel like something most college students across the country would agree on is that good food in college tastes even better when it’s also free. There’s just nothing like being offered free food at events. This past week, my friends, most of whom are from similar-ish cultural backgrounds as me, and I had an event through Wellesley’s Orthodox Christian…
