Hey everyone! Sorry for my summer-long absence! I meant to write a wrap-up post for the school year and to let you know about my summer plans, but things got ridiculous. Even after I finished all my final exams, I still had to write a 15 page research paper for my Honors class AND finish the yearbook...

Oh, Clauss is actually my boss for the Writer's Studio, so I had him last semester for EN301. He can be challenging, but he's a really good teacher and class is entertaining - my friends who had him for their first year seminar liked him as well. I don't know about either of the other profs...

Hey everyone! I'm back! Sorry for not writing for FOREVER, but here's what happened: my laptop with all my stuff on it died a tragic death. Thus I can now give you my best college advice ever: don't ever put your laptop in a tote bag with a cheap water bottle. Not even for 20 minutes! Laptops...

I meant to take a little 20 minute powernap last night at around 12:30 am so that I could power through the rest of my homework and to-do list... unfortunately I somehow managed to sleep through three alarms, and woke up on my couch, still in all my clothes at 6:30 am. Yeah, it's been that kind of...

Is anybody else out there REALLY bad at making decisions? Well, I guess I should rephrase that... I make good decisions, just not in a timely manner. I weigh all my options, think way too hard, stress myself out, and then finally come to a conclusion. Usually this pays off and everything turns out for...

Oh, my. Where has the time gone? This is my 6th semester out of 8 total, and it started out the same as all of the others. The first class we always go over the syllabus first, which at times can take up the entire class period. Surprisingly enough, I find my evenings VERY busy this semester. On Mondays...

I'm officially DONE with my exec position!!! It's bittersweet, but the week really couldn't have gone better. We got 37 new FABULOUS girls, and while I'm exhausted, I couldn't be happier. I think all of the actives had a really great week as well, which was important to me. I had...

Grades came out yesterday and it looks like I survived my semester of chaos with a 4.0! I am happy that all my late nights and hours at the library paid off, because it was definitely my toughest semester yet. Two really reading intensive classes on the same days of the week meant lots of time hitting...

Things have been rough lately. My time keeps flying out the window! Marching band on Monday was a day I will never forget. The email said: " As of now 4:26 p.m. it is not raining. Unless we get a major downpour at 5:30 please plan on attending rehearsal. At the request of the seniors we would like...

For my Jane Austen seminar, my prof invited us over to his house to watch the movie of Pride & Prejudice and he bought us pizza for dinner! So much fun.
