Incoming!

by Elizabeth April 24, 2012

Greetings, blog-readers! We’re smack in the middle of a scary point in the semester: the final stretch.  There’s this exhilarating we’re-almost-done smell in the air, and all kinds of fun events are going on.  A few nights ago I nearly froze to death at the Spring Dance at the Lemp Mansion, which was held on [...]

Pile Up

by Elizabeth P. April 19, 2012

The end of the semester is nearing. I am pretty sure my teachers have collaborated against me. It is the end of the year crunch. Projects, tests, papers, homework! When will it end! My advice for you is that no matter how many things pile up, you still need to take time for yourself. It [...]

My Final Blog

by Alumni Posts December 5, 2011

So… this is it. I’m done with classes. I have one more brief paper to write and hand off, and I’m done. Less than two weeks from now, I’ll walk the stage, dressed in a gown I’ll wear one time ever. Frankly? It’s anti-climactic. There’s not some big banner I run through at the finish [...]

Word to the Wise

by Deanna December 5, 2011

WARNING! Procrastination is not the answer! It is VERY tempting! But do NOT, I repeat, do NOT procrastinate!!! It only stresses you out more later, and causes you to loose sleep. Neither of which are good things. Last night I pulled my first college all-nighter, all because I put off typing my final speech for [...]

We started out our conference play on Saturday with a big victory (82-52) against Blackburn. Even though we started the season on a 0-5 slum, [...]

Favorite Time of Year

by Amanda W. December 5, 2011

The time between Thanksgiving and Christmas has always been my favorite time of year. There are just so many things I love about Christmas time. When I was younger it was that anticipation for getting Christmas gifts, but as I got older the reasons why I loved Christmas changed. I love going shopping for Christmas [...]

It Hurts to Be Here…

by Carly December 1, 2011

I can’t believe it. I have a to-do list hanging above my desk, and as I continue to cross items off of it slowly but surely, I become more and more aware of the fact that these are the last few assignments I have to do for the semester. After that, I’m finished with turning [...]

Holy Smokes!

by Elizabeth November 14, 2011

Can you believe it’s November all ready? I’d like to deny this and refuse to recognize any calendar days after October 31 because it means I have a ton of papers due in the 2nd week of November, but…I’m kind of ready for the semester to be over and getting through this month is just [...]

One Day More!

by Courtney May 12, 2011

“One more day before the storm…at the barricade of freedom!” For those of you who don’t recognize this line, it’s from one of my all time favorite musicals, “Les Miserables.” I will spare your time by not sharing the details of the three-hour-and-fifteen-minute show and by just saying that the show is great and that [...]
