Senior Year

I carved this pumpkin (rather poorly) four years ago this past Halloween! I knew I was coming to IU and I was insanely excited about it, even if a lot of my friends stayed home to work or went to another, closer school! Finding these pictures brought back serious nostalgia and I thought I would...

Hello Ladies and Gents! It has been a veerrrryyy long time since my last post! Summer and the start of school got the best of my time! But get in gear for a semester full of posts by me!  I figured I would just retrace my steps since I last left off, so each of the coming blogs will be about one of...

Hey Hoosiers! So for those of you that read my posts, you may have noticed that I haven't posted in a while! This brings me to this post- General schedule planning!

So I missed Welcome Week because I moved into my apartment Thursday and Friday (boo). That means the first week of classes (which ended today) was my Welcome Week. I'm so glad to be back on campus. I had a great and busy summer but I've missed Bloomington. The first weekend back in B-Town I had the...

Something beautiful happens in Bloomington just before classes start. Like that streak of lime green that flashes in the sky before the sun sets on the ocean, Bloomington has a sweet spot of fun before fall semester begins. This is welcome week. For a brief few days, internships and summer...

Disclaimer: This list applies almost exclusively to girls--sorry boys. I'm not good with your fashion! For those of you who are Indiana natives, none of this will be new. But for our new out of state students, you're in for a surprise: Fall semester is comprised of three types of weather: blistering...
