You always have fun on retreat…
Sep. 9, 2012—One of the best parts about starting each new semester at Vandy is that you have the possibility to go on retreat with your different student organizations. This weekend, I got to go with my Navigators’ bible study group!
A Vacation in the Sunshine State
Jul. 30, 2012—Numerous families make beach trips during the summer. My family is not one of them. We are definitely a family that prefers the mountain scene over the beach. Cold over hot. Foliage over sand. However, with the desire to do something as a family before I head to Nashville and my sister begins her Master’s...
An Unexpected 4th of July
Jul. 6, 2012—One of the most challenging moments for me my freshman year was when my parents moved to Washington, D.C. when my mom got a new job. When I went home on breaks from school I was not able to re-connect with old friends as many of my other peers were, and I found myself missing...
It’s Tornado Season!
Mar. 5, 2012—Okay, so I’m not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to tornadoes…but I’m learning a lot today!
Slowing down a bit
Feb. 13, 2012—So after a truly memorable weekend with watching our ladies’ basketball team beat the Lady Vols, hosting “ESPN College Gameday“, and putting up an unbelievable fight against UK in the men’s basketball game Saturday night–all on little to no sleep–a lazy Sunday was much needed.
Aix-en-Vacances
Jan. 28, 2012—For those of you who haven’t seen my other blogs, I am currently studying abroad in Southern France in a city called Aix-en-Provence. However, sometimes students like to joke around…even some of the host families tell us to remember that while our studies are important, it is also essential to recognize that we are on...
The Ride Home
Jan. 1, 2012—Just over two weeks ago, I fired up the Nathan-mobile to head home for Christmas break, triumphant to have conquered my Circuits and Thermodynamics finals and ready to enjoy some much-needed relaxation time. After forgetting a bag at my dorm, I was forced to turn around about 45 minutes out of Nashville to pick it...
First Snow!
Dec. 5, 2010—This morning I was woken up by girls running up and down the hall screaming excitedly. Sunday mornings on campus are usually quiet and slow. I hopped out of bed because I didn’t want to miss anything. It was well worth it because it was SNOWING! The first snow of the season is kind of...
My 18 Thanksgivings
Nov. 18, 2010—Woah it got cold fast in Nashville! It was 75 last week, and now I’m in a sweater and boots! The Holiday season is among us… It is also the season of eating, eating a lot! During this past week I think I have had, or at least had the opportunity to have about 18...
Rains of Spring
Apr. 28, 2010—Rites of Spring was not ideal by anybody’s means…weather-wise. Apparently it has rained for the past two years leading up to this year’s Rites… Between cancellations of bands (yes Passion Pit cancelled on us because of sickness) and delays because of monsoon-like rain, it seemed like things were going to be a disaster. The show...
The Beauty of Campus
Apr. 12, 2010—Looking ahead at the next ten days – an average temp of 80 degrees with sunny skies! I really should start taking pictures of the views around campus. Some trees are starting to bloom and everything is just gorgeous. Everybody around campus is trying to find a way to take their work outside. Around campus...
Even Nashville Loves Ice
Mar. 22, 2010—Nashville, notorious for it’s country music has another side to it, an icy, cold, ferocious side only unleashed at the Bridgestone Arena when the Nashville Predators take to the ice. Our beloved team here in Nashville is making a playoff push and they are striving to find their place amongst the Western conference’s elite. We...
