Missouri Loves Company
Nov. 23, 2012—The weekend before break I made the 7.5 hour drive to Columbia, Missouri for an ultimate frisbee tournament. The tournament was even more fun because both the men's and the women's teams went to compete.
Music Making
Nov. 22, 2012—This post coming to you fresh from the Yeh kitchen, as Mr. Turkey makes friends with his neighbors Butternut Squash, Carrot, and Potatoes in the Oven. Today I was practicing again. Such is the life. Anyways, I had the strangest feeling: the realization of the complete disconnect among the fingers of my left hand, which tapped the wire strings against the neck of my cello, and my right arm swinging back and forth like a pendulum- right, left, right left- and the noise which was just coming out of the wood. It was so bizarre.
Catch-Up with Nathan and Victoria: Chapter III
Nov. 22, 2012—Well, that was cathartic. Turns out blogging is really excellent for morale, especially when I can take events that have been weighing heavily on my long-term memory (I do use that memory for class and whatnot) and put them in the electronic memory bank known as Inside ‘Dores. That came out more Star Wars-ish than...

First Post/ I’m Going to Rome!
Nov. 20, 2012—Well, this is my first blog post of the semester, so I should explain why I’ve been so busy. This semester, I spent much of my time working on an application to study abroad. Working on writing samples and paperwork for this process was definitely time consuming considering I have regular schoolwork as well, but...
Catch-Up with Victoria and Nathan: Chapter II
Nov. 19, 2012—True life: Nathan currently has a post with this title (except he has his name first, pfft) in the works. I’m beating him to it. Find all the Catch-Up Chronicles here. My lovely readers, it has been far too long. Over a month, in fact. In that span of time, as Nathan mentioned, a LOT...
A Day in the Life of a Blair Student
Nov. 18, 2012—This past Thursday, during an hour break between class and marching band rehearsal, I went to the Turner Recital Hall at the Blair School of Music for a concert.
Catch-Up with Nathan and Victoria: Chapter I
Nov. 17, 2012—Good evening, blogosphere. As has been my modus operandi for this semester, I am going to open this post with an apology. I’m sorry for disappearing for weeks on end, only to return for short stints filled with vague hints at the life I’ve been leading off the grid. The world is full of strange...
