I recently found out that I am struggling with my grades in my major field. I talked to the department chair and he is helping me in finding out what it is that I’m struggling with. I went to both of my professors in my program. They are going to do their best to help [...]

All I Want Comes in Colors

by Carly March 26, 2013

Aaah, the old Comfort Zone. I love it for obvious reasons (it’s comfortable), but I also have come to absolutely despise it over the past few weeks as I spent a ton of time reflecting on my life during the Lenten season. As much as I hate to admit it, my Comfort Zone has me [...]

Looking Towards The Light Ahead

by Deanna March 19, 2013

It is always easier for me to make it through a week or two when I have something to look forward to, and luckily lately I have had things to look forward to. This past Sunday was St. Patrick’s Day and since I come from a big, Irish family I am always excited to go [...]

I Wish You Could See the Thoughts in My Mind.

by Carly March 18, 2013

I’d like to take a moment to acknowledge the fact that we’re, what?, a week past the halfway mark of the semester? The sheer amount of stuff I’ve learned in the past eight weeks is kind of really mind-blowing. I’ve learned, for example, what a derivative is. I’ve learned how to take the derivative of [...]
