Spontaneous Snow
Jan. 30, 2015—Happy new year! Okay, so I’m a little late. I apologize for having not blogged in a while; I’ve been so busy and so many different things have happened over these first few weeks of the semester, I’ve barely had time to catch my breath. But that’s a good thing. Last semester was amazing but...
A Day on Ice
Jan. 30, 2015—Inspired by the great season that the Nashville Predators are having, I decided it was time to return to the ice skating rink and to continue my pursuit of being an Olympic Figure Skater. I found a large group of people willing to go ice-skating and so we headed off towards Centennial Sportsplex, a mere...
Animal Lovin’ at Vandy
Jan. 29, 2015—One of the hardest parts about leaving home was saying goodbye to my dogs Tommy and Sophie. Tommy is in doggie heaven right now, probably chasing squirrels.

Wacky Wednesdays
Jan. 23, 2015—After what usually ends up being a late night of newspaper production every Tuesday for the Hustler, I wake up on Wednesday mornings a little more tired than usual. Unfortunately for me, Wednesdays happen to be my busiest day of the week this semester, with not one, not two, not even three, but FOUR classes,...
Semester Two, Semester New
Jan. 22, 2015—New classes, long lines at the post office, and even a couple of sunny days this week – this can only mean one thing. IT’S SEMESTER TWO Y’ALL. Okay, maybe the new semester actually started about three weeks ago, but my busyness pretty much shows how exciting this semester is shaping up to be. Here...
20 Hours in Bethlehem
Jan. 20, 2015—My semester had a slightly rough beginning; for a while I feared I would never make it back to campus!
Runner’s Guide to Nashville
Jan. 20, 2015—I really enjoy running. It gives me a way to unplug from school work and campus life for just enough time to get back to my dorm with a fresh mind and endorphins to help me get through many hours of reading for class, writing essays, and doing all those things on my to-do list....
MLC’s Masquerade Gala
Jan. 18, 2015—I had always wanted to be a part of the Multicultural Leadership Council (MLC) at Vanderbilt because it showcases and celebrates the diversity at Vanderbilt. Although I did not get a chance to do so during my first semester, I wrote to Danielle McKeiver, a sophomore heading MLC’s freshmen program, FreshIDEAS, and she invited me...
Trivia, Trivia, Trivia
