‘off campus’
The Weekend That Keeps On Giving
Feb. 24, 2013—Hello folks! I apologize for my long-term absence. The bar is higher this semester all around—so I had to make sure my FIRST BLOG POST OF 2013 is/was the best thing you have ever read, which means I had to step up my game in the “living life” department. And it goes a little something...
Getting Domestic
Feb. 21, 2013—This week, I actually had two midterms. They were in my easier classes, so I had some free time, but I was feeling a little anxious. I decided it was time to bake. At home, I cook and bake almost every day. I absolutely love it. But, while at school because I don't have a kitchen of my own, I often forget to do what I love. This week, I was determined to relieve some stress and remember to do what I love.
Mardi Gras
Feb. 14, 2013—I know what you're thinking. A college student at Mardi Gras cannot be constructive. I am here to dispel those preconceived notion, as I went to Mardi Gras and survived.
Ed Sheeran Part 2
Jan. 23, 2013—Last night, I saw Ed Sheeran in concert…again. I saw him last semester in London, and he was so good that I had to see him again at the Ryman.
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).
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...
Off Campus Study Date
Dec. 11, 2012—Last week my friend and I both had a lot of work to do for a couple of our classes. However, rather than staying on campus to study, we decided to venture off campus for a change of scenery!
Last Day of Classes and Shrek the Halls
Dec. 6, 2012—Today, classes ended for the fall semester. Tomorrow is reading day and exams begin on Friday. My finals schedule for this semester isn't too bad. I had two finals papers due today, and I have three exams. I will be home for winter break in just a few short days. To celebrate the end of classes, my room mate and I went to ICE! at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel.
The Radio City Rockettes!
Dec. 5, 2012—Last weekend I fulfilled a childhood dream: I witnessed an absolutely incredible performance by the Radio City Rockettes, right here in Nashville, at the Grand Ole Opry. To say my mind was blown would be an understatement. But this tale deserves some prefacing…. Ever since I was a little girl, every Thanksgiving Day I would...
Disney disney!
Nov. 16, 2012—I have been on a very looooong blog hiatus, but no worries, I did not forget about you guys! I do have one big update about my 3rd semester at Vanderbilt..
NashTrash Murder Mystery Tour
Nov. 9, 2012—I know that I always talk about CityVU because it is one of my favorite student groups here on campus. Last night, CityVU rented out the NashTrash bus for a private Murder Mystery tour. Due to last minutes cancellations, my room mate and I got to go!
