The Land Down Under
Nov. 8, 2012—I love to travel. Always have, always will. So far I’ve been to every continent except one…Australia! (I went to Antarctica on a school trip my junior year of high school, but that’s a story for another time). Anyway, when it came time to decide whether or not I wanted to spend a semester abroad...
Symphonie Fantastique
Nov. 7, 2012—So what better for Blair kids to do on their Friday night than go to the Schermerhorn Symphony Center for a delightful evening of music? We boarded the bus downtown, and when we arrived, we saw around half of our school there. From the pianists to violists to vocalists to horn players, the Blair School of Music had invaded the Nashville Symphony. Yes, that is what we music majors do to kick off our weekends.
Say YES to Success
Nov. 6, 2012—For the past week, conversations seemed to have centered around classes and YES, the system that Vanderbilt uses for course registration.
Chicago – My Journey Outside the Vandy Bubble
Nov. 5, 2012—Last weekend I got to take a trip to Chicago to visit one of my best friends! I’d only been to Chicago once before and I hadn't really had time to explore it thoroughly, so I was super-excited!
My MAJOR Dilemma
Nov. 5, 2012—Are you... Considering applying to Vanderbilt? Do you.. Feel generally confused about the future? Maybe you... Cringe a little when someone asks you plan to major in? If you said yes to any of the above...read this...
The CMA’s!
Nov. 2, 2012—Last year after the CMA's I heard from friends that anyone can stand outside the CMA's red carpet and see stars as they walk in. I'm not a huge country fan, but I absolutely love Taylor Swift. I was bummed that I missed out last year, but I was determined to go this year. So Thursday night I headed downtown with my friend Daniel in hopes of seeing Tswift.
My Taste of Home
Nov. 1, 2012—This past weekend at Vanderbilt was extra-awesome!!! But you won't know why unless you read about it here!
Halloween in College
Oct. 31, 2012—Halloween has been one of my favorite holidays for as long as I can remember. Last year Halloween kind of crept up on me, but this year I was ready to celebrate!
Fun Times in Nashville!
Oct. 30, 2012—The past few days I’ve been able to journey off into Nashville for some city-specific events, which has been so exciting! This year my roommates and I splurged and bought season passes to TPAC’s Broadway performances. We literally sit in the last row but it ended up being under $20 a performance, which is totally...
The Package Line 2: The Streets
Oct. 29, 2012—This January, I wrote a sad blog about the realities of the package line after breaks. Despite their best efforts at moving students through, the package window was besieged by horrible lines due to the number of students shipping books and home items to Vandy. Apparently Inside ‘Dores is really the pulse of the student...
TIMAV: Meal Plan
Oct. 28, 2012—In continuing in my theme of talking about things I missed while studying abroad, it would be a mistake to forget about the food at Vandy! I know this is a popular topic amongst the Inside Dores bloggers, but food plays a huge role in college life. Be sure to pick a college with tasty...
Fall Festivities
Oct. 27, 2012—Friday night my friends and I planned on going to a corn maze, but unfortunately it was closed because of bad weather. So instead we had a fun night of dinner and painting pumpkins!
