Hello again, friends! I hope all of you are doing well! Here at UE, we are over halfway through the semester.
Yesterday I closed my first show of college.
Being involved in these films has helped me to expand my comfort levels with film acting and to learn more about how the process works.
One viral TikTok video (and hours and hours of work) later, my cosplay was ready! Was it an exact copy of Katherine Howard’s costume? Most definitely not, but it was in a style that I was more comfortable wearing.
Even though school can entail a lot of work, there are always ways for you to manage your load and your time.
The spring semester has begun.
So spring break has come and gone for the majority of us, and now we're left with the memories of the last week that'll stick with us for years to come.
Someone may not be able to do their part and you may need to step in.
As I near the end of the semester and quickly approach my last semester at Pitt, I’m reflecting on my experiences and the tools that have helped me to get through college.
It's a Sunday night, I just got off work, I have an extensive amount of homework due, and I have dinner plans to attend, and I’m feeling drained and overwhelmed.
Finding a balance of everything going on in just a week, let alone a whole semester can be so challenging and draining.

It’s about that time of the semester where you start to plan for the next semester.
Without a doubt, March is always the busiest month.
When I look back at the chaotic first half of the semester, I am proud of myself for managing to balance such a busy schedule full of rehearsals, weekend work shifts, and a heavy course load full of countless class projects.
We’ve all heard it: the claims from friends and relatives of how easy we must have it “just singing and dancing” for schoolwork.
This week marks that of my spring break which has been, in the simplest terms, a real curveball.
I had the opportunity to be an assistant stage manager for a community theater’s production of Miracle on South Division Street.
In my Notes app, I plan out my weekly schedule, marking down which assignments are due when, any meals that I’m getting with friends, and any other important upcoming events.
We are just around midterm of the Spring semester at BU and things are going pretty swimmingly for me.
I took a trip down to the costume shop today to begin working on my costume for “Get Down”.
Happy March everyone! It’s so hard to believe that we are already three months into the year and halfway through the semester.
Dealing with burnout is not enjoyable.
