Last weekend, my older cousin and her best friend visited me in Chicago! They were my first visitors of the semester, so I was really excited to show them around the city. They have only been here for dance competitions and other work related things (they’re dance teachers), so they were in for a big [...]
I’ve had a couple days off from Urinetown, but there’s no break in the life of a theatre major! Monday I auditioned for next year’s first Mainstage production, Lost in Yonkers, a play by Neil Simon about Jay Kurnitz, a 15-year-ol d boy who is left with his brother at his strict German grandmother’s house [...]
It is hard to believe that we have entered the spring season when temperatures remain below forty degrees in Chicago. As less windy cities experience sunny days and warm weather, Chicago seems to be trapped in one of its notorious six month winters. Thankfully, there is hope! Over the past couple of weeks, there have [...]
I’m always on the run from one place to another, from class to class, job to job, stores, meetings, anything else imaginable. Therefore, I always have my phone charged and headphones in, listening to music. Every genre has it’s own beauty to me, so I have a little (actually a lot) of everything in my [...]
It’s just the beginning of a new week, the middle of another Tuesday, but it feels like the days are rolling from one to the next with no breaks or ends. I was happy to have Friday and Saturday as my weekend, but I spent a lot of them doing homework and catching up on [...]

We may still have Winter weather but last week was our Spring Break. Unfortunately, I did not get away from the cold as many of my college peers did. It was okay though because I went back home to Michigan and got to see my family and my dog. I had a very relaxed break [...]

Disneyland in itself is a special experience, but Disney’s show, “World of Color” is among the best I have ever seen. There is truly no way to explain the chills that you feel when the show starts. Screens of water display the best moments of your favorite Disney movies while water canons send columns of [...]
Earlier this week, I braved the snowstorm to attend the well-anticipated Career Fair. I wasn’t there for long, so I only spoke with several companies. The main companies I was looking to speak to were Deloitte and Epic, which I got the chance to do. Both companies were more interested in students that were graduating [...]
