‘College Life’
Dinner and Some Movies
Jan. 23, 2013—This weekend was a long weekend in observance on MLK Day. Monday was fully programmed with optional activities in observance of the holiday. I attended a watching and discussion of the Inauguration in Rand, for example. Because of the long weekend, I was able to indulge in dinner off campus and some movies.
Hanging Out with the SEC
Jan. 22, 2013—The title of this post might lead you to think that I am about to tell you something about sports. Well, my friend, I must inform you that you are unfortunately incorrect, because though the SEC is a classification typically associated with sports, this weekend consisted of my journey to another SEC school to meet with students from other BCMs (Baptist Collegiate Ministries).
Readjusting to Vandy Life
Jan. 19, 2013—I’m baaaaaaack! Granted, I’ve been back at Vandy for two weeks now but I forgot how busy life on campus can be. Hence, this blog post:
Getting my Kicks in Semester Six…
Jan. 15, 2013—All right, I admit, the title’s a stretch. Feel free to comment with something better. But I had to keep the tradition alive. And sure, this isn’t quite a preview since I’ve already had a full week of class–but while I’ve had a full week of class, you have no idea what I’m up to!...
Nashville Winters
Jan. 15, 2013—People at home often ask me about winter in Nashville. This is my third winter here and I can honestly say that I still do not have a concise definition for Nashville winter. My freshman year, it snowed during finals. Last year, it didn’t get below 40 degrees at all. This year, I wore shorts...

WilSkills Fall 2012 Summary
Dec. 15, 2012—Another semester finished, another great WilSkills season filled with whitewater canoeing, climbing, and backpacking. It’s bittersweet because I’m a senior and this is my second to last WilSkills and Vanderbilt semester.
Fall Finale
Dec. 15, 2012—Today marks the official last day of the Fall Semester! Woo hoo! Though I made my way back home earlier in the week, I figured now is a good time as any to do some reflecting on the semester past and things to look forward to in the semester to come. Fall: 1) Large quantities...
Almost doooooooone
Dec. 14, 2012—It’s been half of day stuffed with studying because I slept in (oops) due to the late night movie. It was totally worth it, though. The Middle Earth definitely did not disappoint, for those of you who were twiddling your thumbs waiting for my review.
Heading to the Shire! brb
Dec. 13, 2012—That’s right, folks. Finals week is, in fact, upon us. My schedule for the past 5 days has literally been: Wake up. Put on sweats. Go to the library. Eat and study. Study study study study. Eat. Study. Return from the library. Sleep. Rinse and repeat as needed. (5 days)
It’s All Over. How I Survived Finals.
Dec. 13, 2012—Today, I am coming to you from my kitchen table in warm and sunny Miami Beach. I'm sorry to brag, but nothing compares to the euphoria of finishing finals each semester. If I'm being honest, here, I will say that this semester my finals weren't actually that bad. But either way, finals are finals and I lived to tell the tale.
