Dear Abby #3

Can you guys believe it’s almost April? As in tomorrow will be April. That means that we Hope students only have 1 month or less left of the spring semester! It’s pure madness. Honestly, it’s crazy to believe that I’m almost done with my junior year. I registered for classes this morning, and it said …

Dorm Room Decorating!

Alright seniors, if you guys are anything like I was at this time last year, you’re probably super impatient to graduate and head off to college! Part of that for me was being really excited to have a new space to decorate (and to have a justifiable reason to spend money on cool new stuff… …

The Crazy Weeks Are Upon Us

You betcha. Crazy weeks are upon us here at Hope, but I’m sure they’re at your high schools, too. For some, it may be your spring break, and for others, this is the homestretch. If you’re on spring break, be sure to take advantage of your relaxing time. After spring break, everything is going to …

Dance Marathon… According to the dancers!

Dance Marathon has come and gone! I stopped by while it was going on and it was such a cool event! I am so glad I got the opportunity to stop by and see what was happening even though I didn’t dance! I was so proud of all my friends that were dancers and I …

Making This Semester Worth It

When we, students of Hope, return from Spring Break, there’s a limited amount of time left in the semester. It’s simply crazy. There are 5 weeks of class left, followed by exam week, which means there are 6 weeks to make the semester count. As long as 6 weeks may look, time just flies after …

6 Things – 6 Weeks

Spring Break is drawing to a close, and after we all get back to campus, there are only about six weeks of classes left for the semester! Crazy, right? I can’t believe how fast this school year has gone and it’s so weird to think that I’m already almost a quarter of the way done …

Spring Break Happenings

Nothing. Haha, I’m just kidding. I thought I was funny there for a second. Anyways, yes, Hope College is on spring break! Very very very exciting for all students around. Why? A break from all of the school work! Although I may not be in sunny paradise enjoying the beach or sand, I am in …

Rooming 101

Ok #Hope2018! As seen on the Hope Facebook app, people are committing to this wonderful school and are making their deposits. Naturally, the next thing to do is… find a roommate! Well, as students, we make make this a priority, but it’s important to remember a few things when it comes to rooming. Before I …

It’s a Little Late, But…

It’s Thursday, and today marked freedom from higher education. In “normal” terms, it’s officially spring break for Hope College! #SB2K14! It’s quite an exciting time because all students deserve a nice long break, whether that is down south, or home, a break is a break. The weather may not be spring-like, but at least there is break! …

Greek Orientation and a Splash of Spring

Hi guys!! Guess what! I ran outside for three days in a row. Can you believe it?? It has been warm enough (above freezing) to somewhat enjoy the sunshine in Holland. I feel blessed that I am able to run this season, as last year I was still recovering from hip surgery. Anyways, on the …
