15th first day of college today, the last three at @ClarkUniversity. Still feels like 2010 in a lot of ways. Welcome, new students, and welcome back, returners! ❤️ (and thanks to @CUBSchool for the fun decorations today!)

I scrolled allllll the way back to 2018-me to quote-tweet my “first day of school” tweet…former me must not have ever thought this day would come. Yesterday I passed my dissertation defense and became Dr. Alyssa Orlando! 🥳 Six years in the making. What a whirlwind.

Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! The chocolate chip cookie was invented by chefs Ruth Graves Wakefield and Sue Brides in 1938 in Whitman, Massachusetts. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts designated the chocolate chip cookie as the Official State Cookie in 1997.

Somehow in the last 11 days since becoming parents, @RPOrlando91 and I have moved from being “watch Tiktoks before bed together” people to “send each other Reels at 3am and watch them alone” people. #parenthood

I know the real answer to the question "what's more stressful: A) childbirth or B) preparing for parental leave?" but when you are in the thick of Answer B, it really doesn't seem like it...
