Yahoo! I’m finally back home in Sandwich (yes, I realize, it’s a weird name, please don’t ask me what kind of sandwich I live in, you’re not funny) and of course extremely sick. I guess that’s what happens when you don’t eat or sleep properly, if at all, for a week straight. My bad. Finals [...]

April 29th, 2013 · 1 Comment · First Year Study Abroad Experience, Josephine Lippincott '16 - London, England
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m SOOOOOOOOOOO sorry. I’ve been home for about a week now and I haven’t told you about my last 2 weeks abroad. I promise the updates are coming. They’re just a tad overdue. Alright so we last left off at the pillow fight in Trafalgar Square. The following Monday [...]

Tonight a study group has congregated in my room for Spanish. I don’t understand what’s being said. My roommate is flapping her arms and jumping around the room, speaking in gibberish. Deena and Izabelle are talking about the potential weight of fecal matter, and its consequences on weighing one’s self. Nancy is trying to ask [...]

My last few days at and around Arcadia
April 27th, 2013 · No Comments · Natalie Marshall '16
HELLO. I figured this would be a great time for a blog post, since I know I will definitely be doing nothing but studying for finals/writing papers/preparing presentations for the next week beginning in about T – 30 minutes. All this work actually has not been too painful, though, and one way I have learned [...]

I’m going to stick with this system, she said! I’ll be awesome and blog every couple of days, she thought! Should I keep the expectations low so nobody gets disappointed next time? EXPECT THE NEXT BLOG POST TO BE IN A MILLION YEARS! Ahem. Anyway. The weekend after my family came to visit, my significant [...]

Packed Weekend
April 20th, 2013 · No Comments · Natalie Marshall '16
I think I would certainly qualify for a job at the IT help center here at Arcadia now because I got this website to work again on my computer all by myself. Well, actually, the computer experts on Google told me how to do it after I searched “certain websites not working”, but I physically [...]

I’m back
April 17th, 2013 · No Comments · Natalie Marshall '16
Hi everyone. I haven’t blogged in a while because this page has decided to stop working on my computer. It just doesn’t load whenever I have something to blog about, and when I have nothing to blog about for that matter. So, I am now trying to type out a blog post on my phone [...]

Check me, keeping my word!

So the week after Preview was… it was absolutely awful, to be honest. There were people problems, and family problems, and a bunch of tests (even a few midterms, lucky me) which culminated in my having a mental breakdown. Legitimately. My mother and sister wound up leaving to come to Glenside late on Friday night, [...]

Scotland vs. Ireland: Rugby Style
April 16th, 2013 · No Comments · First Year Study Abroad Experience, Lauren Jolley '16 - Stirling, Scotland
One of the highlights of my time abroad so far was when I went to the Six Nations rugby game when Scotland played Ireland. The largest sports game I have ever been to is some Minor League baseball games in my hometown, so when I went to this rugby game it was completely more than what [...]
