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)

Dartmouth is no stranger to a variety of student-run full-year performance groups in dance, a cappella, improv, and comedy. Sophomore summer is particularly special, as most of these groups allow sophomores to audition and join just for the summer.
In one of my previous posts, I mentioned how I joined a sorority earlier this fall by going through the recruitment process. I've come a long way since then. In fact, I am living in my sorority house for my sophomore summer!
Dartmouth is not just a college. With world-renowned graduate schools, why would we choose to call ourselves a college instead of a university? The story behind that decision dates back to a significant Supreme Court ruling.
On a quiet spring Saturday in Hanover, I traded the usual campus buzz for Monet in the morning and archery in the afternoon—a reminder that Dartmouth weekends can be just as meaningful when they're slow, reflective, and a little unexpected.
During my sophomore spring quarter, I took on the challenge of four STEM courses, and while it has been intense, the unexpected connections across subjects and the joy of learning have made it one of my most rewarding academic experiences yet.
