Quality of Life?
Feb. 9, 2012—The other day in my “Environment, health: the real issues” course, we talked about how the perception of what quality of life means is different from person to person. For example, people in industrial cities tend to talk about pollution and green spaces as taking away from or improving, respectively, their quality of life whereas...
Practice MCAT
Feb. 5, 2012—Yesterday morning, instead of finally catching up on my sleep, I woke up at 8 am to take the MCAT. Not the real thing, thank god, but a practice test administered by Kaplan.
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.
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!
Favorites of Fall 2011
Dec. 8, 2011—To shake things up a bit, I wanted to give other non-blogging Vanderbilt students the chance to get a few words in. As we finish the Fall 2011 semester, we are excited for the coming of Winter Break, the ability to sleep in, watch TV, and hang out more than is possible while school is...
The end is near.
Dec. 8, 2011—Today is officially my last day of classes. Do you know what that means? Finals are literally right around the corner. AHHHHHH!
Rand’s Holiday Feast
Dec. 8, 2011—Instead of the usual Quiznos for dinner, last night I feasted on lamb, oysters, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. No, I’m not an amazing cook all of sudden, but rather Rand hosted its annual Holiday Celebration from 5-8pm.
The Climbing Wall at Vandy
Dec. 5, 2011—A real cool feature of Vanderbilt’s that is becoming more popular across the nation is the climbing wall available at the Student Recreation Center that is available to all members of the Rec Center (that means students!) for FREE when the wall is open.
Sunday Funday
Dec. 5, 2011—Yesterday was such a great day filled with on-campus activities. Currently counting down to final exam week, I decided that yesterday was going to be a day of fun, friends, and minimal studying (I may pay for that last part later).
