Super Bowl Sunday

By Christian Grotewold On February 7, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Christian Grotewold, On campus
Chicken wings, Subway sandwiches, pizza, and beer. These are, from what I have noticed, the perfect ingredients for a Super Bowl Sunday. This past Sunday was the 47th annual Super Bowl between the 49ers and the Ravens, with a special performance by Beyonce and Destiny’s Child during the half time show. Past years I have spent it with my family back home, since I was still in Guatemala, but these last two years I have [...]

A Californian’s Survival Guide to Freezing Weather

By Lynn Tay On February 3, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Lynn Tay
After a year and half of living in New York, I have finally mastered the art of dressing for the freezing temperatures of New York with the assistance and persistent training from my suite mates Laurie Fogelstrom and Monika Khaltsev.  I remember that I was lucky with the very mild winter New York had last winter.  This year, I must say I have not been as fortunate.  So far this week, we have had weather [...]

A Word of Academic Advice

By Christian Grotewold On February 1, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Ask a Wag, Christian Grotewold, On campus
It has been a quiet week in Wagner’s social life, but you all have to get ready for the upcoming posts because they will be great.

Despite being only a sophomore at Wagner College, I do have some experiences and some advice for any incoming freshmen. It is fine if you do not know what major you [...]

Holiday In Guatemala Pt. 2

By Christian Grotewold On January 24, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Beyond NY, Christian Grotewold
Hello everyone and welcome to the second part of my Holiday in Guatemala post. Since this will be my last post before we get down to real business again, I have decided to give you a fun view of how I spent my New Year’s Eve. My entire family and I went to Antigua Guatemala to welcome the New Year. Antigua means “old” in Spanish, and, as you might have guessed, it is the old [...]

The End of a Year but the Start of a New

By Lynn Tay On January 24, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Lynn Tay
Looking back on my winter break on the East Coast, I must say that my winter break has passed by too fast for my liking. It was my first full winter here on the East Coast. Before winter break came, I anticipated my winter break to crawl by slowly and be uneventful and dull. I was pleasantly surprised and found myself having a very eventful winter break. I had the pleasure to explore Long Island, [...]

The Sea(hawk) Experience

By Lynn Tay On January 16, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Beyond NY, Lynn Tay
Every year on our training trip, the Wagner swimming and diving team are given an afternoon off from practice and have the chance to spend the day in whichever way they like.  Some of my teammates decided to turn into true beach bums and stayed on the beach all day the moment we were done with morning practice.  Others decided to take a nap in the room and simply lounge at the beach, while others [...]

A Sunny Day Is a Happy Day

By Lynn Tay On January 14, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Beyond NY, Lynn Tay
Greetings from Fort Lauderdale, Florida! The past three days have been sunny and warm here, which makes every day a beautiful day despite all of the early morning practices followed by grueling afternoon practices we have had upon arrival here.  Our hotel is only a hop, skip, and a step away from the gorgeous sandy beach of Lauderdale.  The beach calls us from our rooms as soon as we come back from morning practice, and [...]

My First White Christmas

By Lynn Tay On January 3, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Beyond NY, Lynn Tay
For Christmas this year, my sister and I went up to Boston, Massachusetts, to spend a few days with our brother and sister-in-law.  We had our very first white Christmas!  My favorite things to do are to hang out with my family and watch movies while eating warm, hearty food, and play board games after dinner.  This Christmas I have been able to relax with my siblings and enjoy the food that my sister-in-law cooked [...]
