Church-Hopping in Nashville
Oct. 6, 2013—Since almost the first week of college, I’ve spent my Sunday mornings exploring the local Christian church scene. Although it’s possible to go to church on campus––there’s the Episcopalian church at St. Augustine’s Chapel, Catholic services at Benton Chapel––I like exploring the surrounding city whenever I have the time. I also attend nondenominational churches. In...
My Craziest Week Yet
Oct. 6, 2013—Last week was possibly the craziest of my time at Vanderbilt. After months of preparing for the LSAT appendicitis tried to get in my way of taking the test, but there was no way I was letting an organ the size of a finger stop me!
Homecoming Festivities

Performance Weekend or Parents Weekend?
Oct. 5, 2013—Hello friends! This past weekend was filled with two of my favorite things; performances and my parents! Like my fellow star blogger, Erica Graff, my weekend kicked off on Thursday evening at Vanderbilt University Theatre’s production of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead.

‘ it with Kendrick Lamar
Oct. 4, 2013—After months of meetings/deliberation/preparations, this Thursday Commodore Quake was finally here!!!! This year’s Quake was my first as a member of VPB’s Music Group, so I got to experience all the fun from a much better view than before: The artists we had this year were Wale and Kendrick Lamar, two of the biggest names...
The BLounge
Oct. 4, 2013—I love homecoming week. All campus is alive with music, people and cheerful presence of Vanderbilt alumni. But after a long day of classes I thought I needed some time to relax, listen to some music and have a quick light lunch before hitting Branscomb for food trucks and block party after that. Yes I...
The Anchor
Oct. 3, 2013—Last night, as I was at the Munchie getting ready to grab some food and head out to Blair for some late night practicing, I got a text from my house president, Henry. Apparently, there is a big contest for who makes the best Homecoming banner and all the common houses were “battling” to earn...

Paint Vandy Purple Week!
Oct. 3, 2013—Yesterday marked the end of Paint Vandy Purple Week! What does that mean? Well it involves not as much paint, but a lot of flyers, banners and purple ribbons. But why purple, one might wonder? Well, it’s all for a good cause. Vanderbilt Relay for Life is one of the biggest student organizations on campus....

‘ Last Parents Weekend
Oct. 2, 2013—My parents came to parents weekend my first year at Vanderbilt, but they have not been to parents weekend since. Honestly, parents weekend is more crowded and busy than most, so my parents try and come when things are calmer (and they can hang out with all of my friends). This year, however, they decided to brave the crowds as it was my sister's first parents weekend.
