I can’t believe it’s almost Thanksgiving! I have had the time of my life this semester, and I feel like there is something excitng going on every weekend. On Saturday, NOVEMBER 14, 2009, I went to the St. Louis Zoo with the freshmen Presidential Scholars. We had an AMAZING time. But why do I stress [...]
TOURS! (And being a tour guide, of course!) Today, just like every Monday and Friday at noon, I gave a tour to prospective students. I only had three families to give a tour to, and it made their visit that much more special. I’m known as the “Queen of Random Facts” by some tour guides. [...]
I’m one of those students who takes a long time to do my work, who likes all subjects and who loves learning. I came into SLU as a Medical Scholar, and couldn’t believe the opportunity I had before me. I declared myself a Biology Major at the end of my sophomore year, took Physics over [...]

OMIGOD OMIGOD YOU GUYS!
I love how much St. Louis has to offer. From great dining to wonderful shows, St. Louis has it all! Speaking of wonderful shows… On Saturday night my boyfriend took me to see Legally Blonde the Musical at the Fox. It was AMAZING! I know so many people who have seen it [...]
After traveling throughout Europe almost every weekend, I thought I was going to be in complete withdrawal when I came back to SLU. But boy, was I surprised! I’ve been in St. Louis for almost a week, and I haven’t even noticed that I can’t just fly to Spain for the weekend. I’ve been SOOO [...]
Yesterday, I made the trip back to St. Louis. Today, I visited Parking and Card Services. After a long night of traveling yesterday, I wasn’t prepared for the picture they made me take. I thought we kept the same picture for four years, but I was wrong. It wasn’t too exciting. I dropped off my [...]
