Finding My Niche

Sorry for the vulgarity, family and friends! However, it is true: Sh!t's getting real.

The leaves are starting to change along with the course of the semester--- It's time to really crack down on my thesis.

Pentagon Row - The plaza where we studied

We finally received our Georgetown library cards, which you avid blog readers know that I was excitedly waiting for. Well, BUZZKILL! My friend and I hiked up there this past Saturday to find out that it really isn't an ideal study spot at all. I'd hate to insult one of my fellow Jesuit schools - and obviously a very prestigious one at that - but it was certainly not Holy Cross. Walking along the campus to the library made me miss the beautiful campus back in Worcester.

The other side

Although it was great to be back at a library cubicle again (I'm a nerd, okay!), it was definitely not Dinand. I miss walking into the sounds of the printers going in the gorgeous reading room that looks like a room from Hogwarts. I missed not seeing 8349202 people I know as soon as I enter the building. Instead, there were a ton of Asians quietly studying to themselves in an ugly, bland room.

The Starbucks that we go to on the weekends to do some thesis damage

I know I sound completely elitist here, but Dinand is my home at Holy Cross and Georgetown did not fill the hole in heart.

We sometimes stop grab a quick dinner at Noodles & Comp., which has great macaroni and cheese

Starbucks, which is a 10 minute walk from the apartment, has been a much better study solution and a great caffeine-filler.

For those who don't know, this is Dinand <3
