I moved out of my sophomore dorm two and a half weeks ago and I already miss it! It's certainly nice to have my own room again, but I loved the way we decorated our dorm this year. My roommates and I added personal touches on pretty much every wall and I contributed a lot of color Lilly Pulitzer to the room. We all added our own style to the decor so we had a nice mixing pot of everyone's taste in the room as a whole. I absolutely loved having my bed lofted this year! Not only did I …
Loyola University Chicago
Sayonara Sophomore Year
One week ago, my roommates and I moved out of out sophomore dorm, Bellarmine Hall, which we had called home since mid-August. I have to say, sophomore year was certainly a mixed bag and I had some of the best experiences of my life as well as quite a few difficult experiences. Thanks to each and every one of these experiences, I've grown so much and I'm incredibly grateful for all of them as well as all of the absolutely fantastic people that have come into my life this year! As a sophomore, I …

It's that time of year again! Derby Days officially begins tomorrow on my campus and I am so excited! For those of you who are thinking, "what the heck is this Derby Days thing?" one of the fraternities on our campus, Sigma Chi - Lambda Nu, raises money for the Huntsman Cancer Institute each year by hosting a full week of events and activities. Along with my chapter, I'm raising money this year for Derby Days and I would be extremely grateful if you'd donate to the cause! I've given …

As many of you may know from my Instagrams this weekend, my chapter held Fall Bid Day for informal recruitment this weekend!

Be sure to …
