http://2010-ilc-at-brown.blogspot.com/2011/04/new-york-exciting-adventure-and-my.html
Sunday, April 17, 2011. New York- an exciting adventure and my possible future? As I lay in bed last night, my excitement deprived me from obtaining the proper sleep. I could not believe that I was going to come to New York! Enthusiastically I got up at 3 AM, so I could make sure that my belongings were ready. I did not want to miss my flight, so my mother, Maria Perez, and I arrived at the San Francisco airport at 4:30 AM. Our flight was scheduled to leave at 6 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

2010 ILC at Brown: Onward/Upward
http://2010-ilc-at-brown.blogspot.com/2011/04/onwardupward.html
Tuesday, April 12, 2011. Although it's technically been only one day, I'm going to separate it into two blogs so things are more coherent.]. Nine months ago, my fellow Brownies and I landed at Oakland International Airport after departing from my summer program at Brown University. During my trip there, I had visited many colleges, including Yale University. However, I had never envisioned that nine months later, I would be back at Yale, visiting not as a prospective student, but as a prefrosh. There was...

2010 ILC at Brown: The Big Apple Adventure
http://2010-ilc-at-brown.blogspot.com/2011/04/big-apple-adventure.html
Tuesday, April 19, 2011. The Big Apple Adventure. Since I was given a day to go out and explore New York City, I decided to take advantage of this opportunity. My mother and I had breakfast in our hotel before we went to the ferry. Once we got to the ferry, my mother asked me where I wanted to go. I told her, “Everywhere! But let’s start with Times Square.” I was really excited. I felt adventurous. It is, indeed, a great gift from the French. We decided to walk to Central Park, so we could also get that ...

2010 ILC at Brown: April 2011
http://2010-ilc-at-brown.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 25, 2011. The college admissions process is almost over for the high school class of 2011! With a deadline of May 1. To turn in a Statement of Intent to Register to the school we’ll be attending in September, I’ve been thinking about and revisiting my decision again and again. So, to help with my final decision, I decided to visit again during Spring Break. Luckily, Swarthmore was offering an all-expenses-paid visit on the 14. Again, I’m really grateful to Cynthia, her roommate, my gr...

http://2010-ilc-at-brown.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 31, 2010. The entire trip is memorable, but the moments that were the most impressive for me were the Amazing Woman Project, Action Plan, College Tours, and guest speakers. CC, in New London, Connecticut is strong in the humanities and has really good study abroad programs. In addition, students there are able to schedule their finals and take them without any proctors. Now that Summer@Brown is over I am back home and soon enough school will start! Ms Stewart I specially thank you for the ...

2010 ILC at Brown: August 2010
http://2010-ilc-at-brown.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 30, 2010. I may not always remember every detail of “Women and Leadership” at Brown University or even everyone I met but I have been changed internally for the better with the lessons and knowledge I brought home. The lesson on speaking assertively has had immediate benefits and I am confident will assist me in my future endeavors. Being assertive and responsible are necessary for me to carry out my action plan and I am looking forward to doing so! If I were to wrap this adventure all in ...
