Well wow it's been a long time since I have last posted. So what's happened in the past few months? Well A WHOLE LOT! First and foremost, I graduated from Albright (scary, isn't it?) I can't believe that just 3 short months ago I walked across the stage and received my diploma! And believe me it was a sad day! I never thought I would have such a hard time saying goodbye to Albright, but I guess that just shows how wonderful of an experience it was, right? So then i ventured into my very last rea…

So I am finally home for what little is left of Albright's Spring Break. This year (just as last year) my men's a capella group (Mane Men) went on tour for 7 days. We sang at churches, high schools, and other college campuses over the length of our tour, and we were very lucky to visit the hometowns of the four seniors. (Go to youtube and search AlbrightManeMen to check out some of our videos!). The best part of the tour in my opinion came on Saturday night. I was so lucky to be given the opport…

Don't get me wrong, I like to socialize. I actually live for it. If you have ever visited Albright (especially on a weekday during the lunch hours) you were probably exposed to the wonderful world of Albright's Campus Center. It's kind of like the student's living room (and don't worry it's ok to put your feet up on the coffee table!) Yesterday, my lab was postponed, so I had a free Thursday afternoon! What to do...what to do? I could have gone to the bank, ran some errands, worked on some homew…

This quote really struck me as I read it in an email from my mother. Amid all the stress of finals week, this quote was included in an email about how life is beautiful and we should take time to watch it. So I'll keep this blog post simple. Watch the attached file (it's in PowerPoint) and just relax for a few minutes and think about what you see. I promise you won't regret it.…

So I realized the other day how easy it is for someone to figure out I'm making an appearance at home! I decided to surprise my father a few weeks ago by showing up at home and taking him to see the new James Bond Movie: 007 Quantum Solace (see it, it's good!). So I told my mom and brother the plans and decided to arrive Friday evening around dinner time to surprise my dad. During the day leading up to my arrival, my mom sent my little brother shopping to pick up a few things, and of course sinc…

So fall break began with the usual buzz on campus, student's finishing their midterms, and everyone getting ready to go home for an extended weekend. I however, was not in the same boat as every other student. I spent my fall break touring through Pennsylvania and New Jersey with my men's acapella group the Mane Men and our counterpart, the Albright Angels. For four days, we sang all over, signing everything from Beatles, to Billy Joel, to spiritual music. It was one of the greatest experiences…

So I got extremely lucky today, and my Mom came up and paid me a visit! I haven't seen her in almost a month, and won't see her again until homecoming weekend at Albright, and then at Thanksgiving. She arrived around 3:30 with a car full of groceries! (This was much enjoyed!) My Mom then continued to make a chocolate cake and my favorite food from home, fettuchini alfredo.
Spending the afternoon with my mom made me realize how much I really miss her and her company! I sat in the kitchen while s…

well the first week of senior year has officially come to a close, and i honestly can't believe it. i decided to change my picture to reflect how awesome my final year as a POP truly was. (POP stands for Peer Orientation Person, someone who serves as a leader for the freshmen orientation program). This year, I was lucky enough to be on POPS Steering Committee, which is the group that plans and executes the orientation program. Seriously, POPS is like Christmas in August to me, and I couldn't be…

So summer time is wrapping up, and I am home from albright now!
I realized today how much time I have spent in the past 2 years packing and moving stuff! I packed up my stuff and moved to Albright junior year, then moved halfway through the year, then moved home, then back to school, then back home, now to an apartment AHHHHHHHH when will all the packing and moving stop!?!?
Well I gotta go, I have to go pack for a trip to Lousiville tomorrow. Haha. Just kidding. Well, I really do have to pack…

Well I'm officially back at Albright for the summer (and I have been for almost a full week now). I started my internship yesterday at the Reading Music Foundation (I'm actually writing this from my internship...shhhhh). I decided that on my break I should jump on here and write a little something. I have my own office here! How cool is that? I get my own desk and phone and computer and everything. And I'm in one of the coolest buildings in Reading, the Goggleworks. It's this old factory that th…

Well the semester has been over for a little bit now, and I'm really enjoying the time off before I head back to Albright for the summer. (Yeah you heard me correctly, I love it so much why not spend the summer there!). I'm going to be working on campus this summer, and I also have an internship at the Reading Music Foundation (sweet life!) But before I head back to the Bright, I'm trying to soak up the sun and enjoy this much needed time off! My days have been filled with water skiing on the la…
