On Sunday, I went on a day field trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, or the Met, in New York City! This was for my Islamic art history class and so much fun. My day began VERY early at 5:00 am. We took a school bus to the city (not the yellow school bus you’re thinking of), so we…

Study Abroad Stories
Hi all, With less than a month remaining of my time abroad, I thought it would be fitting to chat about my experience studying abroad. To preface, I had gone into this time away without much preparation other than what the Office of International Studies requires. I had taken a look at the brochure for Trinity College maybe once or…
Uneventful Monday
I recently wrote about what a busy day in my life as a Wellesley student looks like; today, I want to do the opposite and write about a fairly uneventful Monday of classes. I woke up early to work on a short paper for my Islamic art history class. Since I live on the east side, I am lucky to…
Monday Midterm Melancholy
Hi all, Midterm season is upon us! My midterms are looking a bit different this semester than how they have looked at Wellesley for my previous four semesters. For today’s post I thought I could do a bit of a comparison and contrast of the workload, lecture setup, and overall academic experience abroad and at Wellesley thus far! My credentials…
De-stressing in college…
Hi everyone! I love November—I love seeing the leaves leave the trees, I love the cold weather without the snow, I love the fashion during that season. What I don’t love about the month is that it’s so close to the end of the school year, and yet there is almost exactly a month left of classes. This makes November…

That’s why in this blog post I wanted to share more about the different jobs I have had here and my experiences with them. A very popular job on campus is…
WC (Wellesley College): Welcome to My Crib
Hello Blog, That’s right. It’s dorm tour time. This year, I’m living in a single in Pomeroy (Pom) Hall. This means for the first time in my Wellesley experience I am without my former roomie and dear friend Anabelle </3. It’s all good though, because she has her own single in the next dorm over (Munger) where most of my…
When in Wellesley
Today, I want to focus on the fun things students can do in the town of Wellesley. I feel like we spend a lot of time talking about going to Cambridge and Boston on the weekends; thus, I now want to highlight and recommend some things to do within the town of Wellesley! Right outside the east side of campus…
Feeling Grateful
Hi all, I hope everyone is having a great start to this wonderful month leading up to Turkey Day! There is lots to be thankful for, and for this little post I thought I could talk about a few of the moments I have cherished and enjoyed thus far! Remember, these are just highlights of the last few months. I…
Halloweekend Recap 🎃🕸🍬
Hello Blog, Happy belated Halloween! This past weekend, appropriately named “Halloweekend,” was full of festivities at Wellesley. Starting on Thursday, there was Zombie Party, hosted by WZLY (our radio station and biggest on-campus org). Despite its name, not everyone has to dress as zombies. Last year my friends and I went as “Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives” from the iconic Food…
