Deck the Halls Purple and White!

Posted on December 30, 2020December 26, 2020

I come from a huge Furman family. I’m a 4th generation legacy, so as you can imagine, we love us some Furman. My grandparents bleed purple and every year when they decorate for Christmas, their house isn’t covered in red and green, it’s all purple and white! As much as they love to deck their…

Christmas in Greenville

Posted on December 26, 2020

If you know me, you know that Christmas is my absolute favorite time of year. I’ve grown up in Greenville my whole life and I LOVE spending Christmas here. There are always so many things happening downtown and in places surrounding Greenville that make the season so special. If you’ve never had the chance to…

First Semester Flashback!!

Posted on November 28, 2020November 27, 2020

My first semester was absolutely NOTHING like what I expected, but to be fair… no one had any idea what to expect. Freshman year is strange in more ways than I can explain, but freshman year during a pandemic is even harder. The first few weeks on campus just felt like we were at a…

SoHo Community!

Posted on November 20, 2020November 17, 2020

If you’re anything like me, living right next to all of your best friends is one of the best things to ever happen. You probably won’t have another time in your life when your closest friends are just a few steps away, so I am cherishing every second here in SoHo! SoHo is the South…

ALL The Seasons

Posted on November 13, 2020November 6, 2020

Greenville weather is like no other. We really do get all four seasons – sometimes in the same week!! Everyone expects South Carolina to be hot all the time, but we definitely get a full winter experience too. Most of my friends left all of their sweaters and jackets at home because they assumed it…

A Second Family

Posted on November 6, 2020November 4, 2020

Having a support system in college is essential. I know I was so used to always relying on my family, so I was sooo lucky to find some amazing friends during my first semester. Living in the same place with people is so much fun and it helps you grow relationships so much faster. I’ve…

Goodbye High School, HELLO College!

Posted on October 30, 2020October 23, 2020

Saying goodbye to all of your high school best friends can be really sad, but knowing how amazing this new stage of life will be is so exciting! Embrace the nerves and get ready for the best 4 years. The day you have to say your goodbyes to everyone from home can be very hard….

The Do’s and Don’ts of Living with a Roommate

Posted on October 23, 2020October 19, 2020

Living with a roommate for the first time can be very challenging. It’s an adjustment for everyone, but it’s completely understandable to be worried about it. Finding out who my roommate would be was one of the MOST stressful and exciting things about starting college! Everyone gets so nervous about what room they’re in and…

A New Way of Furman Life

Posted on October 16, 2020October 13, 2020

Obviously this semester doesn’t look anything like what anyone is used to. We want to smile at people as we pass them and be closer than 6 feet to our best friends. Even though none of this is ideal, we’re adjusting to a new way of life that is necessary right now. As a freshman,…

Coping with Homesickness

Posted on October 4, 2020

Most of us are so used to being surrounded by our family 24/7. You get so annoyed with them that you think there’s NO way you’ll miss them once you’re in college! You know you love them to death, and some of us know we’ll miss them immensely once we leave, but for a lot…
