Happy spring semester! It’s a new year, new semester, and I’m feeling optimistic. Spring is my favorite time at Wellesley: the weather slowly gets warmer, it no longer gets dark at four pm, and there’s the promise of summer not so far away. I had a hectic but enjoyable winter break. I headed back home and went on an overnight…

Spring Semester Round Up
Hi all, WOW! It has been a year since we last chatted! (Haha, get it 😆) But really, I have missed chatting with you all. I figured we could do a good old fashioned get to know me post with some updated course schedules and what it is like to now be in season for lacrosse! As for my academics,…
Welcome Back!
Hello Blog, And just like that, we’re back for another semester! We’re officially two weeks into the semester, and things are already picking up. Here’s how I’ve been filling my time thus far: It’s application season! I’ve been spending a lot of time applying to research opportunities for this summer. The past two summers I’ve been at Wellesley doing (paid!)…
Winter Break and First Two Weeks Back on Campus
Hi everyone! Winter break ended two weeks ago, and I’m officially back in academic mode. I absolutely loved winter break. I went back home to Bulgaria, and I slept a lot. With the stress around finals season last semester, I didn’t sleep a lot, so I was really excited to sleep during the break. I saw a lot of my…
Not Goodbye, Just See You Later (For Real!)
Hello Blog, Just like that, another semester comes to a close. It’s wild to think that I am officially more than halfway done with college. But, of course, I’m not done yet! I have a bit of an abnormal finals situation this semester, so I’ll talk a little about how Wellesley finals are unique and my plans to finish the…

To recap, I have final exams for econ, math, and art history, so I will be functioning on just coffee and a dream for the next week. As my…
Reset and jet-set to the U.S.!
Hi all, I am going home this week! I cannot believe how quickly time has flown by. December has really crept up on me. This week’s post is largely going to be a mix of random thoughts that I have had. I have been working on my final exams (all six of them) coupled with the lovely task of packing…
Finals Season
Hello everyone! It’s finally here—the last week of classes. This semester felt endless at times, and yet I still feel like I arrived on campus a few days ago. But it’s a fact that classes are almost over, and that the final exams are here. Before exams start though, we have a few days of reading period. It’s a total…
Answering Wellesley FAQs
This is the last full week of classes at Wellesley! We have classes until next Wednesday, which is followed by reading period, and then final exams are upon us. If you do not know what reading period is, it is four days between the end of classes and the start of finals; there are no classes, and we allocate our…
Wellesley Walks
Hi Blog, Today, we ask the age-old question: what do Wellesley students do as they walk to various locations across campus? This may seem like a strange question, but with a campus as beautiful as Wellesley’s, walks are some of my daily highlights. Whether it’s an intentional long walk around the lake or 10 minutes between classes, I like to…
