Lessons Learned
Aug. 5, 2013—In honor of my last few days in Nashville before heading home for a week and a half before I move in for the last time (sob), I present to you a list of just a few of the real life lessons I've learned this summer.
Intern Life- Doing the Job
Aug. 5, 2013—So once I secured my super fantastic internship at redpepper, what was next? Well, dear reader, don't worry--I'm here to share just what I did with my time at rp.
I Major in Talking [Guest Post]
Aug. 5, 2013—Recently, I asked a friend of mine, Katy Biddle, to write a short post on what her major was to give a different view of Vanderbilt academics that is unrelated to my usual pre-med talk. And so, I present to you: Katy Biddle. Hello! I’m Katy Biddle, guest blogging for Jae. A little bit about...
Tax Free Weekend: Round 2
Aug. 5, 2013—It's that time of the year in Tennessee when everyone is out shopping trying to save a few dollars where they can. If you go back to this time last year, you'll find that I participated on the retail side of Tax Free Weekend shopping for the first time with MacAuthority.
A Walk Through Brevard
Aug. 5, 2013—Hello! It’s the last day of Brevard, and I thought I might take a walk with you down the main road, Andante Lane, and reminisce a little, because yes indeed the weeks at Brevard have just flown by and it's just a week 'til I return home to Nashville!
Intern Life- Getting the Job
Aug. 3, 2013—Thursday marked the last day of my internship at ad agency redpepper, and I am terribly sad to leave.

Three in One
Aug. 1, 2013—This past Sunday, I accomplished one of my summer goals: the triathlon. With a time of 3 hours 11 minutes, I completed the Music City Triathlon and crossed that one off the bucket list. It was a long and difficult journey, but one that was worth it. Last year, I completed the Music City Sprint...
A Visit from a Fellow Commodore
Aug. 1, 2013—The Vanderbubble really is a small world. When I arrived in Guatemala this summer as a Program Intern for Manna Project International, I was shocked to learn that one of my bosses, Nicole, a 13-month Program Director, actually graduated from Vanderbilt in 2012. Although we both learned about Manna through Vanderbilt’s active chapter on campus,...
Phones Round Two
Jul. 31, 2013—When I first started working in Admissions this summer, I thought that my biggest task was going to be being trained to be a tour guide--and that was true. But what I didn't quite account for was the inevitable shift answering the phones.
An Army Summer, Part 2
Jul. 30, 2013—More than once in recent posts I’ve hinted at the great adventure that is the Leadership Development and Assessment Course (LDAC). A 29-day getaway in the woods of Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington, LDAC is the culminating event of three years of ROTC, meant to evaluate all rising seniors in the program nationwide for the purposes...
Quake announcement rocks Vandy
Jul. 29, 2013—Get it??? Earthquake, rocks... I'm here all week. If you haven’t heard already, last week Vandy students found yet another bullet point to add to the lengthy list of reasons why our school is the absolute BEST. Read on for the (incredible) lineup, Quake info, and more!
