A First-Year's First Week In Pictures

I moved into Bryn Mawr a week ago, but it's already starting to feel like home.

A First-Year's First Week In Pictures

A week ago today, I moved in to Bryn Mawr College. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so this week, I am going to share my first week of college with something slightly more visually appealing than words. Here are a few snapshots from my first week and semi-witty captions for your scrolling pleasure.

The sun sets behind Haverford College's Stokes Hall and on summer. College has made my thoughts so prolific.

This cupcake. Just...this cupcake.

When that girl who literally can't swim passes the swim test, she tells everyone. I mean everyone.

Soft serve in Haff. Praise Athena.

Anyone else feel like they're in Genovia, like, all the time here?

PSA: Kate made friends(!!!)

I mean, come on. It's Genovia.

Rhodes is aesthetic af.

The sun sets on the Mawr.

Thinking of changing my focus from English to architecture, with a specialization in Lego dinosaur abodes. Thoughts?

Guys, I met Havercat and I completely fangirled. And scared him away. It was worse than when I met Shaq.

Reminder #562 that my roomies are my everything.

Bryn Mawr! Bryn Mawr! Bryn Mawr!

To everyone who has made my first week so amazing, from my more-than-lovely Customs People to my Hall Dad to my new friends and professors. You all rock, and I can't wait for the next four years of Erdman French toast sticks, study sessions in the Campus Center, and late night walks from Haverford. Maybe not that last one, though.

Oh yea, Christmas. It’s time to take out all of the decorations and Christmas themed things that have been sitting in the attic since last year; it’s time to make a reappearance. So, here are 10 things that happen the second Thanksgiving is over.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
