For those of us studying veterans, we know what it's like spending long hours parked in a chair with a screen or books in front of us. First, you start getting that tingling feeling in your derriere as your capillaries protest the chair you're sitting in. Not long after, your legs get a little...

One of the awful benefits of actually being an engineer is, actually being able to boast about having to study 24/7 and not get ragged on by your friends for doing so. Its kind of like an unspoken agreement ... except not really. These past four days were filled with adventure from writing 24 page lab...

I finally, finally finished my English papers. Hooray! I emailed them to my professor last night, which was even ahead of schedule, since they are due by the end of today. I've been stressing about them just a wee bit because it took me approximately one billion years to outline them. When I say...

So I for today, I think that I will tell you all a little bit about what I do every day, because it is so exciting of course! :) Today is Wednesday....so I started off my day with my Microeconomics class that was at 9 a.m., which is a little too early for my liking. But I try to make up for it by eating...

Well, it's now midnight on Saturday and I am writing to you from Jordan Hall (one of our main academic buildings). I almost always study on Saturdays, but usually from the comfort of my own home. However, with finals starting next week and lots of deadlines for me on Monday, today calls for extra...

What a jam-packed weekend! (I think busy-ness is going to be the general theme of the rest of my posts for this year.) I’m writing about a lot of things I did this weekend, so I’ll bold what each paragraph is about and you can skip around. In theory, Friday should have been less busy because...

Whew! Honors Weekend is finally wrapping up! This is the weekend when Butler hosts a number of events to recognize outstanding students, including the Top 100 Banquet, Honors Program events and academic college awards. It is one of my favorite times of year, because I really get to learn about all the...

Hello all! Like I told you recently, my schedule has been pretty hectic... but of course, my busy schedule is voluntary, and typically pretty fun. Sometimes it amazes me when I look at the variety of things I do all in one day. Take Wednesday, for example: 6 or 7 am (don't remember) - Wake up, shower...

Hey everyone! Sorry that I haven't been posting as frequently as I usually do. We are starting to get into the busy portion of this semester and I am feeling a little overwhelmed. Hopefully I can write a long post for you soon about one of these topics, but here's what's up in my life......

Hello from BUTLER! Yes I am finally back at school getting ready for sorority recruitment (and loving it!). However, before I get totally back into the swing of my crazy BU life, I want to hang on to the study abroad memories a little bit longer with a few extra posts I wrote in Spain. I know they’re...

Well, friends, it’s that time of year again… midterms! I believe that Butler had them last week (during Homecoming? bad planning) but here in Spain, I have them tomorrow and Thursday. Midterms always stress me out more than anything else… it is the time of year when I am most likely to stay up late into...

So finally, fall break is here! :) I have been so ready for a break...so this feels wonderful! The only problem is that while I'm here I have to write a paper and work on a speech....but I can fall asleep on my couch watching tv with my family again, which I love. Something else that I really appreciate...

Well, well, well. It's a little past New Years, so obviously it feels appropriate to post my resolutions! Over the years I've come to find that when it comes to resolutions, less is more, and I also recently read in a magazine a great idea to just upgrade the things that you love instead of completely...

It's kind of sad that last night - after I've already been in college for a few months - I realized something terrible: I don't know how to study. Really. I don't. It's not exactly something I'm proud of, but I'm glad I caught it this early so I can do something about it....

Fall Break was last weekend, and it was great. I got to see two of my best friends from high school, and then spent three fabulous days at home. I had all these plans to do all kinds of homework, but of course I only did about an hour's worth, and spent the rest of the time reading, lounging, painting...
