Hanover sunset

I spent Sunday night holed up studying for two midterms the following day; I would never have noticed the gorgeous sunset right outside my dorm if my friend hadn't called me and told me to grab my camera.

Birthday girl

For Zana's birthday a week ago, we had a girls night in. Baking cupcakes, wearing tiaras, painting our nails - it was a good time.

Happy 18th, Zanzan!

Snail mail appreciation

Being in the middle of a New Hampshire forest, I'm always excited to receive mail from the outside world. Recently, I've been getting quite a bit! Halloween decorations, various goodies for upcoming friends' birthdays, and tissues because I'm sick ... thanks for the love, guys =)
Yesterday, I was thrilled to find the latest copy of my high school newspaper, The Winged Post, in my mailbox. They did a such a great job! You can see some of the articles online here.


This morning, I was so excited to pick up a package from a wonderful friend who mailed me a real pumpkin and Halloween candy!


In this age of email and online chatting, do you still send things by snail mail? What's the best bit of mail you've received lately?

Autumn leaves

Changing colors, crunchy leaves, brisk mornings ... fall in Hanover is beautiful.

Seasons on the East Coast are so different: I love it! What's your favorite time of the year?

Rugby

So sorry it's been a while! I need to be better about uploading photos regularly. A few days ago, I went to see my first rugby match. I thought playing water polo was tough, but these athletes are intense. Two of the Princeton guys suffered concussions during the game, and one of the Dartmouth players limped off the field partway through. Our boys ended up beating Princeton 81-3, but our girls lost to West Point.
Only in Hanover can the trees and landscape around the rugby pitch look this beautiful!

PS. I'm now working as a photographer for the Aegis, Dartmouth's yearbook.
