A window inside life at Augustana College
I was going to blog about my internship, when I stumbled upon the freshman (okay, fine, first-year) summer connection blogs. Which prompted this blog post. I know when I was just entering Augustana, I looked online for anything that might have advice about how to survive my first year. Well, this is the culmination of [...]

Winter break at Augie is literally just that–a break. At most colleges, it’s a time to relax before a fresh new start. At Augie, it’s a short period to briefly relax and procrastinate on the homework you have due right when you return. Although winter break passed a bit too quickly (don’t worry, I still [...]

Sorry that it’s been forever since I blogged last. This term has been crazier than I could have ever expected. But, oh well I enjoy being busy. I have four classes, a job, a social life, and am active in a bunch of activities on campus. Oh, I guess I should probably mention that I [...]

So I know it’s been awhile since I had the chance to blog and I apologize for not keeping everyone updated. Finals week was….interesting. I practically lived in the library. The finals themselves were a tiny bit less terrifying than I thought they would be. All the studying paid off and I am happy with [...]

Um, perhaps? Since starting my fall break Monday of finals week (because I’m the bomb dig and got done early) I’ve been sleeping in. At first, it was strictly involuntarily and my mom was rather peeved. As a result, I helped her out around the house in the morning, taking short naps when she wasn’t [...]

Oh geez….oh geez, oh geez, oh geez…… Yup it’s that time of the term…Week 10!! AHHHH!!!! Cue the creepy Halloween music. I have been pretty calm so far this trimester, but now I am feeling the pressure. Unfortunately though, it’s not just me. Pretty much everyone I know is at least a little bit freaked [...]

As stressful as registration hell currently is for me, I do realize that there are a few things that I will never stop loving about college. The main one being the one I’ve been excited for since high school. I am exactly who I want to be here. Coming to Augie gave me a fresh [...]

So week 8 left me extremely exhausted after a quiz, paper, exam, and essay. So come the weekend, decided to kick back, relax, and have some fun. Friday night, my friends and I went to intramural bowling. We are in no way, shape, or form professional bowlers. In fact, we looked down right hilarious! We [...]

I have never pictured myself as a “country girl” in any shape or form… until I came to Augie. Just about all of my friends and anyone else I meet here on campus are from Chicago suburbs; on occasion, I’ll find the few from other cities or big towns. I, on the other hand, have [...]

Lately, I have been lacking some much needed downtime. However, when I’ve had downtime here at Augie so far, it has probably been no mystery to my floormates. Off of the top of my head, I can think of five ways good ol’ Swanson 2E knows when I have downtime. 1. New artwork appears on [...]
