The time has finally come…for my Fall Break recap! For anyone curious what my trip to the Cape looked like, keep on reading! One of the big highlights was trying lobster for the first time at a local clam shack. I had always heard how amazing Cape Cod seafood is, so I figured it was time to give it a…

My academic life at Wellesley vs at the University of Edinburgh
Hey everyone! For this week I thought it would be fun to compare my academic life at Wellesley and at Edinburgh. In a lot of ways my academic life here is a lot different than what I’m used to at Wellesley, but there are surprisingly many similarities as well. For one, one of the biggest similarities is the way my…
Monday Day in my Life
Happy end of the school week! I love watching people’s day in my life videos on YouTube, so I decided to do the same here in this blog post. Today, I will go through what an average Monday—the busiest day of my week—looks like for me this semester. This semester, most of my classes are in the late afternoon. On…
Fall Break: A Time for Rest, Relaxation and Running!
As the air turns crisp and the leaves transform into the pretty shades of red and gold, there’s a special excitement in the air for the upcoming fall break. For me, this year is extra special—my last fall break as a senior in college. It’s a time to step back from the whirlwind of classes, assignments, and campus life to…
Welcome to Edinburgh
Hey everyone! As you know, I’m studying abroad at the University of Edinburgh for the semester (yay!). I was really excited when I was moving here, because I have always wanted to visit the city and Scotland as a whole. Before Brexit happened, and I chose to apply to schools in the US, the University of Edinburgh was my first…

I’m taking courses in both education and psychology, and it’s been…
Interning in India

Through Wellesley’s Lulu Chow Wang ’66 Center for Career Education, I completed a Global Signature Internship at a think tank in Mumbai, India. So, I received this opportunity and $5,000 in funding to go abroad from Wellesley. If you want to learn more about…
1 Month Down!
Hello Blog, In the words of Maisie Peters (a musical artist who just came to Boston on tour), “I wake up and it’s October.” Even though this is only my second blog, I’ve been back at Wellesley for a full month now! Let’s recap what has happened so far: Classes are back in full swing! Something a bit new this…
Summer Catch-Up
Hi everyone! This past summer has been the first summer that I spent on campus at Wellesley doing research. Last year I did my summer internship in Bulgaria, so this was definitely a different experience. Physics, however, is one of those subjects where it’s essential to get as much experience with research as possible in college—not only to help you…
Reintroducing myself!
Hi all! My name is Tenzin, and I am a junior, or a third year student, at Wellesley. I have been blogging for the Wellesley Student Blog since my first semester here, which is insane to think about… But, I will be using this post as a reintroduction and to update on what I am doing this fall semester. I…
