What’s on Your iPod?

by Courtney March 31, 2011

It’s crazy how much you can learn about a person just by browsing through their iPod’s playlist. I’m pretty sure that most people my age have playlists that include pop, rap, and alternative hits from the top 40 billboards. However, if you looked at my iPod, you may be very surprised. Over half of the [...]

Why I Chose to Be a Griffin

by Courtney March 7, 2011

I attended Notre Dame High School, a small, all girl, Catholic high school in Lemay, South St. Louis County.

Hanging from the Roof

by Courtney November 22, 2010

by Courtney November 8, 2010

What’s a metaphor?

by Alumni Posts April 21, 2010

Any future students, or current students, that serendipitously stumble upon my humble mumbles, there is an audition for Misery directed by Fontbonne’s very own Valleri Dillard.  It is a stage adaptation of the Stephen King novel.  It will be produced this fall in September (?).  Anyway, auditions are Monday, April 26th starting at 7:00 and [...]

What did the sink say to the faucet?

by Alumni Posts March 12, 2010

There’s something I love about spring break at Fontbonne.  THERE’S ALWAYS PARKING!  Yes, I’m one of those that goes to school during break.  There’s no one in the library, I can get hours of research done in peace and quiet, I have extra time to work in the theatre hanging lights or working on the [...]
