‘College Life’
New Semester Resolutions
Feb. 6, 2012—Each new semester in college is like a new year…sure you might be taking the second semester of a course (i.e. General Chemistry A vs. General Chemistry B), but it’s still a new class with a new teacher and a lot of new faces, give or take some familiar ones. It’s important to treat each...
Noodles, iPad applications, and tutoring.
Feb. 5, 2012—The title of this post might seem a little strange. Correction, the title of this post is a little strange. But what do noodles, iPad applications, and tutoring have in common? Well, they’re all areas in which the last three guest speakers for one of my classes have been entrepreneurial.
Commons Dining
Feb. 2, 2012—So….as y’all know by now, I love to eat….and one of my favorite places to eat is the Commons.
Brown Bag Lecture Series
Feb. 1, 2012—The Women’s and Gender Studies Department hosts a lecture series called the Brown Bag Lecture Series that features talks from representatives of multiple organizations around campus. The one that I attended featured T.J. Jourian, the Program Coordinator of the Office of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Intersex Life at Vanderbilt University. I always enjoy these...
Study Group = Lifesaver
Jan. 30, 2012—I have pretty much spent the last three days studying (super fun weekend) and I think I would have lost my sanity if it weren’t for my amazing study group. We call it that but it is really a few of my close friends who have braved the Organic Chemistry and Biology combo with me.
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...
Dore for A Day
Jan. 24, 2012—Today, I missed the first half of the Vandy vs. University of Tennessee basketball game. Shame on me, I know, but no fear, I was there for the second half and stayed to sing the alma mater with my team after their dominating win. (In case you missed it, the final score was 65-47 and...
What’s in store for semester four…
Jan. 21, 2012—The second week of second semester is already nearly over! I can’t quite believe it—and clearly time has flown by so quickly that I haven’t had time to blog (I’m making it up to you with a catchy title for this post)! Here’s the lowdown on what I’ll be doing this semester so you can...
Sophomore Slam-Dunk Tailgate
Jan. 19, 2012—I just got back from watching the Commodores dominate the Alabama Crimson Tide in the Admiral’s Club at Memorial Gym. The Admirals Club is a state-of-the-art lounge with TVs, trophies and an awesome view of the court. You may be asking yourself how I was able to get to such an exclusive room. Well, Vanderbilt’s...
DORES dominate in SEC play (and the Magic of Memorial)
Jan. 16, 2012—This Saturday, the Commodores men’s basketball team improved their record to 13-4 with their win against the Georgia Bulldogs. They also remained undefeated in conference play, with a record of 3-0!
Bid Day ’12!
Jan. 16, 2012—As I mentioned earlier in the week, Bid Day was yesterday! After a week of recruitment, freshmen (and some sophomores) were finally offered bids from one of the nine panhellenic sororities on campus.
