A Random Tuesday in My Life
It's a Tuesday morning. I'm rolling out of bed, opening up my laptop, and groggily starting this piece. Forgive the typos — I haven't had my morning coffee yet.
8.45 AM: Wake Up
I usually wake up around 8.45-9 AM and spend 15 minutes in bed, scrolling through TikTok. After that, I muster up all my courage to get out of bed and take a quick shower, before heading out the door.
10 AM: First Class
My first class is a 10A (a 10 AM class on Tuesdays and Thursdays). This term, I'm taking a course on Playwriting, which is super interesting — I've learned things like character journeys, dialogue harmony, and even the business of making art. My class is in Sudikoff Hall, which is a bit of a trek from my dorm, so I like to leave extra early!
12 PM: Lunch
After my class, I go to Novack Cafe and get my regular — an Egg & Cheese sandwich with an iced coffee to wash it down. I usually run into most of my friends here. We sit and talk, study a little bit, and then go our separate ways.
2 PM: Second Class
After that, I have my second class on a Tuesday, which is a 2A (a 2 PM class on Tuesdays and Thursdays). This term, that class is Directing, which I've come to love. It's definitely a super time consuming class and getting used to the pace of the course is difficult, but if you put in the work, it's genuinely a really fun class.
5 PM: Gym
After my class ends, I quickly rush to my dorm, change into my gym clothes and go for a quick workout to the gym. I usually have my PE Credit (mandatory PE courses you have to take to graduate from Dartmouth) from 5-6, so I do that, and then spend another 30 minutes in the gym just working out.
7 PM: Dinner
After I'm done with the gym, I go back to my dorm, shower, change, and head out to dinner with my friends. My favorite dinner is definitely sushi from Collis Cafe — though the wait times are long, trust me: it's more than worth the wait.
8 PM: Homework and Lectures
After dinner, I usually head to the library with my friends and catch up on Cognitive Psychology (PSYC28) lectures; this is my third class this term! I'm usually in the library till 10:30-11 PM, which is when I head out, go back to my dorm, and call it a night!
I hope this day in my life helped you envision what yours might look like! :)
