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…

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…
Big News!
Hello Blog, A lot has happened this past week. First, I turned in my thesis!! It is 123 pages long and finished! My actual oral exam/thesis defense is in a couple weeks to decide if I get honors in my major, but the thesis is officially turned in (early!). After the defense we also have time to make minor edits,…
Dear Wellesley Class of 2029
Hi Blog Readers! Wellesley regular decision results came out recently, so congratulations to any admitted students reading this!! You should be super proud of yourselves and your hard work for this accomplishment, and for making it through the college application process. I thought it would be useful to make this post about some ways to prepare for Wellesley in the…
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!…
Best Study Spots
Hey Blog and happy almost-Thanksgiving break! Today, I am listing some of my favorite study spots on Wellesley’s campus. I did a post two years ago on my favorite places, so I am updating that list with two new additions! Wellesley’s main library, Clapp Library, is closed for renovation until next summer, so these are the alternatives I have found. …
MTV (WC): Welcome To My Crib
Hello Blog, That’s right. It’s time for a long overdue dorm tour!!! This year I’m living in Pomeroy Hall (Pom <3) for my third year, which I think should make me an honorary “lifer” (someone who lives in the same dorm all 4 years). I got super lucky this year and am living in a block with 4 of my…
Eat the Menu: Wellesley College Edition
Hi Blog, We’re going to do something a little different this week! I am going to show you some of my favorite meals so far from the dining halls on campus (with my sub-par food photography skills). At Wellesley, there are 4 different main dining halls, 2 cafes, and a few student-run co-ops. Most dining halls are either very close…
My last week at Wellesley (For now!)
The time has come for me to say goodbye to Wellesley and the Admission Office, at least for the semester. I will be closing out August back home in New York, and come September, I will be in Greece! As excited as I am to go abroad, I need to wrap up everything at Wellesley (aka start and finish packing),…
Movers and Shakers!
One of the things I really appreciate about being at Wellesley over the summer is our proximity to Boston, whenever I get bored or want to go on an adventure I know the city is only a train ride away. I’m especially grateful for this because last summer I was in a small town in the Berkshires with no car…
