http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu Wooster from another perspective... Tue, 20 May 2008 13:20:13 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en So it's been a week since I graduated, and what a blur it's all been! The past two weeks have literally been insane. Exam week went by really quickly, all I had to do was study for an exam on Thursday. We had an FYS reunion on Wednesday night and ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/05/20/looking-back/ It's official: my sister Caroline had her baby this afternoon, David Ethan. I'm way excited (one might say, too excited to focus on my exams). But alas, I must. I only have two classes besides IS (I got a Good on it, by the way, which is a step below ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/05/05/im-an-aunt/ I have to tell you, I didn't quite know what to expect this past weekend for President Cornwell's Inauguration, but I was SO impressed. I was monster focused on my presentation, which went really well (or at least I thought it did). Friday was the "Movable Feast of Undergraduate Research" ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/04/28/inauguration/ So after my jam-packed weekend of Wooster sports (and my brief shopping excursion to Akron for all things Gap-related...I have an addiction), I have settled down to focus on the next few days. This week has been insane, there is SO much to get done! Tuesday, I went to Oberlin ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/04/24/waiting/ So due to some technical difficulties (aka, I have no idea what happened), one of my posts got deleted. So I'll recap for everyone the past two weeks. I had my oral defense Friday a week ago and I passed! I got my questions beforehand and prepared well and it ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/04/19/busy-as-a-bee/ So this weekend was my last weekend with nothing to do. I loafed around, had a bonding session with some friends, watched way too many movies and episodes of "The Office," and ate A LOT of food. This upcoming weekend, however, is the MS Walk that the Peanuts have done ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/04/06/these-boots-were-made-for-walkin/ So I've decided to be a little adventurous (well, for me anyway). Jackie wants to go the ballroom dancing classes that are offered to students and faculty and I can't believe this, but I agreed to go with her. It's going to be fun, but oh...the embarrassment. I love that ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/04/01/trying-new-things/ IS Monday is still a blur, it all happened so fast!!! The march was probably the best part, there was so much electricity and energy. Once the pipers started playing, the crowd went nuts. Dean Garg, our Dean of Faculty, led us around campus in her full academic regalia holding ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/03/30/sigh-of-relief/ I waited outside the Registrar's Office like I was getting tickets to an NSYNC concert or something, I was there a solid 40 minutes before it opened, was first in line, and got 164. I think it's a pretty solid number: it's below 200, it's even, and it sounds good. ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/03/24/164/ So I've really bunkered down and spent the last few days on IS solely, stopping only for runs to McDonalds and Starbucks for coffee (yes, I love capitalism. And caffeine. My ulcer Larry enjoys neither of those things. :-)). So here I sit, Friday night (well, Saturday morning, really) and ... http://classicbev.blogs.wooster.edu/2008/03/22/am-i-done/
