Hello Blog, Happy belated Halloween! This past weekend, appropriately named āHalloweekend,ā 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 āDiners, Drive-Ins, and Divesā from the iconic Food…

I hope everyone had a great Halloween weekend! Every year I say this, but I cannot believe itās already November.

Rechargingā¦ ššš§āāļø
Hello Blog, Surprise ā I took my exam, turned in my paper, and survived my performance! The work truly always gets done. Now that Iāve made it out the other side, this week has been pretty chill!

Extra Busy Day in the Life
Today, Iām going to share what a very busy school day looks like in my life! I remember obsessively watching āDay in the life as a (insert college name) studentā videos when I was applying to colleges, so I hope this can also be useful to readers. Tuesdays end up as my busiest school day. I have two back-to-back classes…

A walk around Tower Court
Tower Court is one of the biggest and prettiest buildings on our campus. According to Wellesleyās website, around 360 people live in it. This year, that number includes me. To be honest, when I was choosing where I wanted to live this year during the summer, Tower was not a top choice for me. A combination of bad luck and…
