A Busy Start to my Senior Year!

I can’t believe I’m already a senior! It seems like just yesterday I was a freshman searching for all of my classes.
My schedule is completley FULL! While I have no spare seconds to sit and relax, I find my time filled with fun-filled learning! My classes are, like PBS says, “fun and educational.” I’m taking [...]

Summer Summary

I promised I would fill you in on what my life was like this summer. And guess what? The time is NOW.

Alaskan Cruise - My family, boyfriend and I went on a seven day Alaskan Cruise. Our ports included Seward (my favorite!), Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan and Icy Strait Point. I can’t even begin to describe [...]

City Girl Goes Country

I did it: I drove twenty-four hours in two days.  It was a wonderful cause, though. I got to see my best friends from London! On Saturday, I drove down to Saint Louis and picked up my friend Megan. After another five hours of driving, I made it to my previous roommates farm! We surprised [...]

It’s February…already?

I just updated my Google Calendar, and it made me realize how far into the semester I already am. I’ve been so busy that I haven’t actually had the chance to sit down and realize how quickly the past month has gone by. I haven’t even had the the time to update all of February [...]

OMIGOD! -Legally Blonde

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 [...]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Before I get into my Thanksgiving plans, I should probably tell you about Rome! I had the time of my life, and I got to see the Colosseum, the Forum, Vatican City and the Trevi Fountain. The GELATO in Rome was much better than in Venice. I think it was my meal supplement for [...]

LOVING London!

I’ve only been in London for about two weeks now, but I’ve already learned a TON about its culture. First, you don’t say “excuse me,” you say “sorry.” Second, you have to look right before you cross the street. Luckily they write on the streets which way to look before you cross them. Third, cookies [...]

Back to St. Louis!

I missed my friends A TON, so it was really nice to spend a week with them. I got to work in Admissions during the day and then spend time with my friends all night. We went on late night Taco Bell runs (my personal favorite), had Olympics marathons, went to Ted Drewes, watched movies, [...]

Summer finally begins!

Free at last, free at last. Right after I finished my finals, I took a summer course. After a few stressful weeks, I was finally able to get that beautiful word all students look forward to - SUMMER! I decided that if I was going to get a late start, I may as well start [...]

First post!

I’ve never been in St. Louis over the summer, so I wasn’t sure what to expect when I found out I needed to take a physics summer course in order to go to London. After helping all of the freshmen move out of the 16-story Griesedieck Complex (I’m a resident assistant), I decided I needed [...]
