We Are So Back.
Hello Blog, Welcome back!! After a wonderful and restful winter break at home (working on my thesis), I am officially back on campus.

Back to Wellesley
Hi everyone! Guess who is back in Wellesley? It’s really amazing being here. It’s great seeing all of my friends, my favorite professors, even the geese again!

The Final Stretch: Wrapping Up the Semester and Looking Ahead to Winter Break
As the semester draws to a close, the energy on campus feels electric. Final papers are being written, group projects are coming together, and the library has become a second home for many. For me, this week is a mix of reflection, determination, and anticipation. It’s my last fall semester, and while that realization carries a touch of nostalgia, it…
Last Full Week of the Semester
Hello Blog, As the name implies, this is the full last week of classes for the fall semester. Thanksgiving break was really late this year, so the semester is rapidly coming to a close. During Thanksgiving break I went home to spend time with my family. I am usually a huge proponent of the post-Thanksgiving meal walk, but it was…
