The XC Team Should Really Stick to Running

By Cameron Rusin

Hi friends!

I apologize, as this isn't going to be a real blog post... life has been a little hectic but I hope to get something up about this coming weekend as I'm going to the White Mountains for 2 nights!

Anyways, last Saturday was the cross country talent show, which was too weird to not share with you guys. 

Some acts included:
- eating 2 bananas, an orange, and multiple lemon slices with all peels/stickers on. This was very disturbing, but the poise of the performer was incredible.
- 2 guys making a puzzle together
- tap dancing to a "Wonderwall" remix
- 2 renditions of hot cross buns, but one had the intro of "Despacito"
- an a Capella rendition of "Longest Time" which wasn't anything special as it had been planned 15 min prior o show time, but they crammed all ~~30 of us their into a single stall bathroom ~~for the acoustics~~
- A pretend vape competition??? I don't really know
- Italian opera, that went on for way too long
- condiment wrestling. This was gross. Senior boys are gross
- And many other acts that were still very odd but can't be conveyed very well over a blog bost
- and..... The freshmen girls' act!!! (freshmen and seniors each had to something, while every other performance was optional)


Well that's all! A short bullet-pointed blog post might be better than none? oh well. Until next time

    I'm almost scared to ask what condiment wrestling is

      I'll tell you anyways! Basically 4 guys covered each other in condiments and wrestled. It was dumb and then the whole floor smelled like mustard

Pre-School School Fun

Hello friends! I’m officially back at school, but before we get into that I did so many fun school things before classes even started that I need to share! So Wind Ensemble takes a trip every year, and this year we got extra funding from the music department so we got to go Barcelona!!! So I flew back to Tufts a week early and went to the airport with my whole WE gang Tuesday night. Everyone was so excited! We could not believe we were about to be in Spain! Then after a few hours of waiting at the airport we learned that the airline could only send six of us to Spain. We were not about to be in Spain...Because one guy was flying on a different flight and was already in the air, we decided that we couldn’t just leave him to fend for himself in Spain for a week so we sent the six people with tickets to Barcelona while the rest of us rode the subway back to Tufts. After a long night of deliberating what to do and arguing with the airline, we were given free tickets on the airline’s ne...

tidbits of a peaceful life

 After a long hiatus from this blog site, I am back with some updates on my final semester of college! In typical-Tamika fashion, I'm going to structure this as lists for the sake of ease. The short summary of my life at the moment is that I have a wonderfully interesting courseload but quite relaxed workload, which means I spend a lot of time doing leisurely activities and sleeping (and also applying for jobs/trying to figure out post-grad plans, but I'm intentionally leaving most of that drama out for now...you'll get an update when I have concrete news!). Books I’ve Read Bestiary Rules for Radicals -for class Playbook for Progressives -for class Imagining the Future of Climate Change  Minor Feelings The Color of Air The Gangster We’ve All Been Waiting For Veganism of Color Meet the Food Radicals (in progress) Things I do for class Made beer with Kveik ale yeast Guest speakers from Poughkeepsie Community: Community Matters 2, Real Skills Starting to build a theoretical fr...

 I suppose it has been a while! While my lifestyle of running, cooking, and bits and pieces of school and projects hasn't changed much, a lot has happened and spring has truly sprung! It's truly that season, as the goslings are out and I have been hissed at by protective parent geese. Hurrah! Some notes of late: Last class for one of my education classes yesterday! We had a little off-campus party with Exodus, our community partner and the host organization for our formerly incarcerated classmates. It was so cute, and the first party I've had in a long time (because of COVID...) We all got little certificates and there were balloons and cake . And it was so fun to finally meet the non-Vassar students and chat a little bit :) This class has definitely been a learning experience and motivates me to more actively seek out relationship building with those whose life experiences are vastly different from my own. Monday was also my last real class for BIO, where we finished up ou...
