A final hoorah
Dead week and finals week were a blur. I vaguely remember staying up late writing papers and reading through vocabulary terms, but for the most part, I was in some sort of trance that allowed me to fight through my senioritis. I think what helped me get through the week were taking scheduled fun breaks [...]
Marketing department update
The Marketing Department has given me a new task! Recently, I have been traveling around to different labs filming student and teacher interactions for a feature that we are doing for the science department. This is a long-term project that requires a lot of footage unlike my normal projects. The last feature I did was [...]
A week that could have been the death of me
So being a college student doesn’t just prepare you for that gruesome life in the real world, it helps you hone those time management and organizational skills that any employer or publisher seeks. Whether it’s getting a job right outside of college or getting your doctoral research published, people who can manage time or work [...]
An atypical Thanksgiving break
Usually my Thanksgiving break acts as my lifesaver. I am up to my neck in papers, projects, reading assignments — you name it — they’re all there demanding my attention. This year, I still had a lot to do but I just wasn’t ready for a break. I didn’t really have a burning desire to go [...]

Night Market is an event in Philadelphia held about four times a year in different areas of the city. The event has live music, food vendors and vendors [...]

Visitors! Who doesn’t love a good visitor when you are away at college? The types of visitor that I like best are Hanover alumni. Not necessarily, the older ones who have established jobs and families — they are great too, but the ones I mean are the recent grads. At Hanover, my freshman and sophomore year, [...]
Shaking Things Up
Well, writing this blog is the second to last thing I have to do before I am home free. The second is attending my 8 a.m. psychology class tomorrow morning. Then, as my car is all packed and gassed up, I will hit the road right from my class and should make it home to [...]
Twelve hours, 100 e-mails
Hello interweb! So this past week was a long one. I had both a quiz and exam in anatomy and we finally got to meet the cadavers we will work with this coming Thursday. This week seems a bit better, only exams and quizzes are where the peanut butter should be in a normal sandwich. My [...]
Work Hard, Play Hard
Hanover is very much a work hard, play hard campus. Classes take time, lots of time — time writing papers, doing homework, reading articles and, of course, the time that we are actually in class. We all realize that the work is hard, but we pride ourselves in our ability to keep up and make the [...]
