Our goodbye to Wellesley, especially for the seniors, was so action-packed that several major news outlets ( The Washington Post, The New Yorker, The New York Times, etc) reported on it the following week. Students banded together in hours to plan and organize makeshift iterations of our biggest Wellesley traditions that we would be missing with the dismissal of our on-campus Spring semester, including hoop rolling for the seniors, Marathon Monday parties, a Last Day of Classes Darty on the Academic Quad, and a tear-jerking faux-mencement (graduation) ceremony. That Thursday, a rush of mixed emotions swept through our 500-acre shared home, and the events to follow over the next four days will forever be cemented as some of my favorite memories of my entire Wellesley experience. That was the last day I saw many of my friends. Knowing that we shouldn’t, we all hug anyway, and everyone spends the rest of the night taking in all of the bittersweet energy that the last twelve hours has concocted. I watch the students I’ve been following in the footsteps of for three years saying goodbye to their four years in just one night. Seniors are all dressed in red, toasting to each other, to Wellesley, and to life. We cry on the phone together.ġ1:44 PM: My best friends and I go to, hands down, the most fun Pub Night that I’ve ever attended in my three years at Wellesley. I call my mom at the intermission of the play.
I find out that I just won the election for College Government President.

We run at full speed across campus to Alumnae Hall to make it in time for the show.ġ0:16 PM: An email gets sent to the entire student body with the College Government Election Results. The performance got cancelled after the announcement, but since they worked so hard on it, they were determined to secretly put the show on anyway. I cry in the Walmart parking lot.ĩ:18 PM: One of my best friends texts me that she has the green light to bring in just a few people to watch her perform in a play that she had been rehearsing all semester. We realize that this is the last time for a long time that we’re going to be able to make random drives together like this. (Because of rumors that the Boston airport was going to shut down on Monday morning, I ended up changing this flight to Sunday night, giving me even less time than we thought.)Ģ-5:00 PM: My close friends and I go to Walmart to get storage boxes and bins to start packing our stuff. I figured I would need the maximum amount of time to pack up all of my things, figure out storage, and say goodbye to everyone. We make a plan to buy my flight home to Florida for Tuesday morning, the last day most students were allowed to stay on campus. ~12:00 PM: I call my mom and tell her the news.
At the very least, I didn’t think we would be closed for the rest of the semester-but alas. But because we’re a relatively small school and we still had zero confirmed cases of COVID-19 on our campus, I guess I still had some hope that we wouldn’t close. Because peer institutions of ours and most colleges in the Greater Boston area had already announced their campus closures, I had been waiting for Wellesley to follow suit and do the same. I want to share with you a timeline of what the rest of that day looked like for me.ġ1:46 AM: President Johnson’s announcement hits my inbox.ġ1:53 AM: I first read the email, stunned. By noon, most of us had already read it or at least heard the news.
Thursday, March 12th is a day I will never forget-not only because of this announcement and the countless consequences it would have for Wellesley as a community and Wellesley students’ lives, but specifically because of the switch it immediately set off on campus. Paula Johnson, officially announcing Wellesley’s decision to quickly evacuate our campus and move to remote online learning until further notice. Exactly three months ago, the entire Wellesley College community received an email from our President, Dr. Original version (Key: Ab major) Overtune to Bb major.ĭon't forget to SHARE THIS BLOG using your social media, e.g facebook, path, twitter, +1 in google plus, etc.Today is Friday, June 12th. Night Changes Numeric Notation available in 2 versions:Ģ. So, again, for my Indonesia fellas, everywhere around the world, I present you: You need to know what melodies and chords form the song. Not just memorize the note position in piano. But this is just my opinion, I want you to know about the song you'll play. Sometime it will help, but not really effective. No offense to the one who posted Synthesia version of any song. He can't read sheet music, so he used Synthesia version (in YouTube) to learn this song. I remember my friend once wanted to play this song. The melody of this song is somehow peaceful and easy listening.
If you are DIRECTIONERS, I just want to give you numeric notation of Night Changes song.
