Some goodbyes are difficult – like saying goodbye to close friends or family you know you won’t see for a while, while others are not so hard – like how I felt about saying ‘peace out’ to my Astronomy class as a freshman. The goodbye I am thinking and talking about today is the au revoir to my […]
Some parts of this semester did feel like a dream. In the intense, laser-focused atmosphere of finals week, it’s easy to get so caught up in the stress of studying and the excitement of wanting to be done with exams that the memories from the semester mesh together in a blur.

I have been busy with completing my exhibit designs for the museum, assisting with activities for kids and teens, cutting and gluing thousands upon thousands of paper chains, and much, much more.

Over winter break, my parents, brother and I embarked on a week-long cruise filled with lots and LOTS of food, amazing beaches, awkward encounters with our dinner waiters, and perhaps the second-most chaotic New Year’s Eve celebration in the world (or on the Atlantic Ocean, at least). My brother and mom made their grand karaoke debut (“Welcome to the Hotel California…”), and […]
