I have always been big on taking pictures. When I was 17, I got a digital camera for my birthday, and it was all downhill from there. Taking photos is a great way to capture moments - from semiformal to prom, to just hanging out with your friends. I have photo album after photo album […]

Yesterday morning my alarm went off at 7:30, because I had to be at the Sullivan Center by 8. We had a cross country meet at Houghton College, which is about an hour and a half away from Medaille. It was raining when I woke up, and I won’t lie, I was not looking forward […]

In my Mass Communication class this morning, we were discussing the internet and how hugely widespread it has become since it was created. People cannot live without the internet. I know that for myself, as a college student, it would be extremely difficult for me to imagine my life without it. So much research is done on the internet. So […]

I will be the first to admit that I’m stressed out probably more often than not. The months I spend at school are always jam-packed with things to do. I love being involved on campus, and I would never change the amount of things that I do — but things can get overwhelming sometimes. Between […]

I’m amazed at how long warm weather has continued in Buffalo. Today is October 4, and the high is 75. One of my professors mentioned in class today that tomorrow’s high is supposed to be 85! I am certainly not complaining, but how can this be? A year ago next week we had the October snow […]

This morning at about 8:30, members of the Medaille community gathered in the Sullivan Center and in front of the Main Building to take a bus downtown in order to participate in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk in Buffalo. The group left at around 9:00 and arrived downtown with plenty of time before […]

Wednesdays are extremely busy days for me. I don’t stop once from the time I get up in the morning until the time I go to bed at night. I have three classes back to back early in the morning. I wake up around 8:15, try to make it to breakfast by about 8:45, and […]

One of the events that has been sponsored by the Scholars Program at Medaille for the past couple years is a presentation by FOUND Magazine. Tuesday night, FOUND returned to Medaille for the fourth consecutive year with the “There Goes the Neighborhood Tour 2007.” Last year, as a freshman in the Scholar’s Program, I was required […]

Well, today is the first official day of classes and the campus is definitely alive. There are so many freshmen this year, I can’t get over it. The campus center has been busy all morning and afternoon with people picking up planners, stopping in the store, or grabbing something to eat. It’s exciting, and there’s a […]

Summer: I blinked, and it was gone. Working 40 hour weeks can really make the time fly, I guess. I feel like I just packed to go home, so it seems pretty odd to me that I’m already back at Medaille, unpacked and practically back into the swing of things. Needless to say, my second […]
