Did someone say "Winterim"?
Happy New Year everyone! Welcome back to another episode of 'Adrian's adventures'. I'm your host Adrian. In this episode, I will be giving you a recap of my winter break (winterim). So sit back, and enjoy the show.

Snow, snow, snow!
You probably can't see the excitement....just kidding, of course you can; The smile gave it all away. This picture was taken outside Wheeler Hall, and it was the first snow picture (a picture of someone standing on snow haha) I took. It was also my first time seeing snow, and I was tempted to taste it, which I didn't (but lets say it's part of my 2022 resolutions).

Thanksgiving
For some of us in this picture, it was our first time celebrating Thanksgiving. While we didn't celebrate it at home, we couldn't let that ruin a wonderful holiday. We decided to celebrate Thanksgiving at our newly found home (Dartmouth), with our newly found family, made up of different people from different walks of life. We had fun and I got to meet some of the most wonderful people with both unique backgrounds and stories to tell. For those like me who didn't or who don't know what Thanksgiving is, here is a short definition: Thanksgiving is a national holiday celebrated on various dates in the United States, Canada, Grenada, Saint Lucia, and Liberia and it began as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year.

Christmas Time
How do you know it's Christmas time without looking at a calendar? Bingo! When you see a Christmas tree. Luckily, Dartmouth had a lot of tricks up its sleeves as it kept the holiday spirit going over the winter break. Through an awesome Dartmouth Christmas makeover, a big Christmas tree was planted on the Green. Santa also came over with his sleigh, but for reasons beyond my control, I couldn't take any pictures with him (that's another joke).

Celebrating my birthday
Do you know according to a scientific study carried out by yours truly, awesome people are born in December? Just kidding. Everyone is awesome! This picture was taken whilst I was trying my best to cut a cake using a plastic fork.
FYI. I almost shared my birthday with Taylor Swift (she was born on the 13th of December)

After the last bit of snow melted, the sun brightened the entire campus. When the eclipse blocked the sunlight for a few minutes, Hanover was lively!

Amid the pressures of schoolwork and occasional homesickness, the natural landscapes accessible from campus have become my sanctuary.
It's easy to forget how easy it is to access walking trails during the hustle of a Dartmouth term. As graduation nears, I am reminded of how special it is to step off campus and enjoy quiet moments in nature.
In this post, I write about why I think Dartmouth's undergraduate focus is valuable.
With a solar eclipse sweeping across North America for the first time in nearly seven years on April 8th came a road-trip with hundreds of other Dartmouth students to a zone of totality near campus: St. Johnsbury, Vermont!
Aside from taking classes this term, I will also be completing my second term of the Presidential Scholars Program.
