Applying for VUcept
Jan. 30, 2012—So this year I have decided to apply for a position as a VUcept leader! Who knows, I might get my own group of little freshmen next year to guide through orientation and their first semester!
Study Group = Lifesaver
Jan. 30, 2012—I have pretty much spent the last three days studying (super fun weekend) and I think I would have lost my sanity if it weren’t for my amazing study group. We call it that but it is really a few of my close friends who have braved the Organic Chemistry and Biology combo with me.

The Engineering Overlap
Jan. 24, 2012—I'm not sure if I've at all mentioned that I'm a Mechanical Engineering and Math double major. Now, then. The price of these two excellent majors is that every semester feels the same: engineering and math until I've actually forgotten how to speak English coherently (this blog is my only outlet for such language).
