Odds and Ends

Here's a mix of photos and what I've been up to for the past few weeks. We're in full on fall mode up here, cold weather and all!


This is the view of the Mississippi River and downtown Minneapolis from the Weissman Art Museum on campus. I have one class across this bridge on West Bank, so it's a really nice walk to class twice a week. (except the wind gusts on the bridge are no joke!)

Even the ivy is changing colors!


My roommates and I went to watch a volleyball win at the Maturi Pavillion. The team is ranked #6 in the nation right now so the arena was packed!


The annual Twin Cities Tap Festival was 2 weeks ago, and Minnesotap got to perform, attend performances, and take fun classes with awesome instructor!

The group and performs at a variety of campus and local events. Our second performance was in the homecoming parade, dancing down the street and giving out candy. The parade was definitely my favorite part of the week because of all the school spirit. Dozens of student and community organizations participated, and so many students and families came to watch; it was a lot bigger than I expected! A rainy day for the homecoming football game, but I went nonetheless! I must admit I didn't stay until the end, though.They played Illinois and won, improving their record to 5-0!  I also participated in the campus blood drive that week. (not pictured for obvi...
