The Senior Job Search

Costa Rica, Here We Come!!
¡Hola! Just 7.5 hours until I am out the door and on my way to Boston for my flight to Costa Rica!!!! It’s so surreal, I can’t believe the day is finally here. I’m kind of nervous, my heart is beating with anxiety. I’m mostly nervous for my parents being nervous, if that makes sense. […]
Network Here, Network There, Network EVERYWHERE

People randomly passed out on campus. Free food EVERYWHERE. The library is packed until 3am every night. The line to Dunkin is out the door. Yup, it’s finals week. Sometimes the chaotic mayhem is unbearable, but somehow I am completely relaxed this finals week. It’s definitely not going to be like that next term when I’m taking ID2050 […]
The Future Is Now!
As this year progresses I keep stopping and realizing. Whoa. I’m a junior. I have one year left of my undergraduate career at WPI. It’s scary and exciting at the same time. It’s scary to think about how fast the past 2 1/2 years have gone by. I’ve become accustomed to the busy, studious college life and […]

Thanksgiving – Not Just a Time for Feasting!
