College Admission at Loyola

Christmas break was EXTREMELY relaxing! It was so nice to take a break from the mounds of schoolwork I usually have and just enjoy the company of family and friends while eating tons of home cooked meals (my favorite part!). One of the many perks of Loyola is that they give everyone a full month [...]

Hello blogging world! This is my first blog in the new semester so, although it is a little late, I want to update you about my winter break! Break was a lovely four weeks in which I slept a lot, ate a lot and hung out with friends. It was awesome. The one week of break [...]

When The Prestige first came out on DVD during my sophomore year in high school, I happened to be flying back from a trip to Israel. Because of this coincidence, it playing on its own channel during my 12 hour flight from Jerusalem to New York. The movie is just over two hours, and they [...]

Even though Winter Break is officially over, I clearly did not get enough sleep because at 8:00PM Monday (the first day of classes), I realized that I’d been wearing my sweater backwards all day. What a warm welcome back! Now that I am done laughing at my silliness, it’s time to get back to my [...]

I have reached my twentieth blog (not counting my miniature Autobiography), hurray! In celebration, here’s a nice picture I took of the Chicago skyline: This skyline is as lovely as the real one. Now, my brief Thanksgiving Break breakdown: Wednesday: I went to King Spa with my mom, as I said I would. While there, [...]

I wrote about the Canadian Thanksgiving several weeks ago, but the American one is coming up fast now. Just yesterday, I was sitting and thinking about how Halloween was almost a month ago, Thanksgiving is in a week, and within weeks it’ll be Winter Break and the rest of the Holidays. We’ve even had our [...]

Halloween has come and gone, and it’s now November. Registration is next week, so those of you who haven’t started preparing your classes, get on it! I’ve come up with a crazy schedule for myself, and it’ll be a miracle if I get it just right. I’ll update you all next week on how things [...]

As I start this post, I must first note that it is seriously FREEZING outside!  While walking from class to class today, I had to concentrate very hard on finding the motivation and willpower to leave from one building to the next.  But alas, I am now in the safe and warm confines of my Baumhart [...]

To quote one of my favorite online musicals, “Man, it’s good to be back.”  While my break was pretty fantabulous, by the end of it, I was itching to get back to campus and engage in social interaction with beings other than my mother and my cats. That being said, my break was still filled [...]

As I hauled all of my luggage back into my dorm room on Monday and greeted my roommate, it felt like I was gone a few days not a whole month! Thats right, we got a month off of school between the fall and spring semesters. Most of my friends back home only get two [...]
