the kind of fridays that make monday-thursday not seem so bad
Although my schedule is a very busy one, not having classes on friday's is already one of my favorite things about this new semester. Tennis practice from 8am-10 though early, was really nice to have so the rest of my day was free! I completed a fiction piece, half my reading for the class, a half hour nap, lunch with the girls, greek lip sync practice from 2-3:30 and a good gym sesh! plus amazing sushi we just got home from!
Tonight I'm staying in with Jackie and Mary and we're going to see 'The Women' at 9:50pm. Liz gave it good reviews!
So that was my day in a nutshell. Tomorrow is our formal rush. We have to be there at 11am, rush is from 2:40-4pm. A full delta day that I get to spend with my sisters :) nothing better.
A week from tonight I will be getting ready for Fall Bid Day. That's when we discuss, bash, and duke it out for the girls we like and the ones we don't. It will be my first one and I'm kind of nervous, I hear there really dramatic/intense/emotion. ah!
But I'm SO excited for a new 'new member class' and to no longer be considered 'the babies' teehehehe ;)
I'm starting to really miss the girls who are abroad. I know that will be me a year from now and it's kinda scary. Scary but good. Maybe a tad bit more scary simply because I don't know where I want to go yet!!! But I am determined to figure it out this semester and then things will hopefully become more structured and I will in turn become less anxious. Italy and London are the front runners as of now.... so we'll see!!
What else? Not a lot. Good luck to megan and austin in their tennis tourney this weekend! I heard austin dominated today... yyeeaahhhh!!!! =) thinking of you two always!!!
and a thank you to mom who sent me twinkly lights today, and some nail polish, super cute card, && gum :) :) thanks mom! you made me smile :)
SAFE TRIP WISHES to lizzz who leaves today for UCLA RUSHHH. so excited to share greek life with you! and even more excited to have us back in the same state :] PLUS you now have a car to come see meee. yah!!!
XOXO

EN FUEGOOO
So the pictures following are HUGE but jackie and i are having challenges making them smaller for some reason? so they're just going to be enormous I guess. Last night was our En Fuego Dance/ Fundraiser and it went VERY well!! Well decorated all day saturday and had little to no drama. Our goal was $1500 and we have a meeting tonight so I guess we'll see soon!
Even though it was a success, we are all very tired. Working set-up from 1-5pm and then working the event from 9-2am was draining and a lot of time to be on your feet thats for sure! But it was all worth it.
Just doing laundry, finished my lit homework for tomorrow, have more reading to do for lit, and am almost done with my first creative piece for my fiction workshop. LJ and I have to go pick up Lost in Translation and watch it for our philosophy class with a write-up due thursday... wheew!! a lot to do/done. and still going!!
Delta meeting tonight at 7 and once my reading is out of the way it's off to bed for me. Long weekend but definitely fun!!
jenna and i!!
8/10 of our pledge class!! I♥the token ten!!!
a little deltakappapsi and pichi =) brother sister; greek love :)
don't think thats all of us... but we did get a lot of us in!!

the good and the bad
This week has been quite the rollercoaster. From an impromptu tennis schedule switch and cable issue to RUSH activities and receiving delicious cookies today ☺ ‘good and bad’ seemed to be fitting for the time being.
Cable guy came Wednesday, only to hook up our cable and then have it not work the next day… SO I called and the guy is coming back tomorrow and credited our account $20. Woo! Off court practice times went from Tuesday and Friday’s to Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri and on-court practices start next week, Mon, Wed, and Fri. I’m looking forward to it but going to be a busy girl!
RUSH is starting next week… which means were going to be getting more girls!! Delta night is Wednesday and I’m super excited!! Staying on topic, I just wrote and mailed the formal rush invites to all the patronesses and chapter presidents and sent them off today! Along with my big’s gift (Alyssa) in Salzburg, Austria!
Getting in the groove of things is somewhat of a challenge for me this year (so much fun! but difficult at the same time.) But hopefully after this coming week things will settle down and I’ll form some kind of a schedule.
THANK YOU TO megan and mom for the delicious carmelitas!! Very delicious and much needed! And I already downloaded the CD you made me, megan! My favorite is shake it.. haha xoxo
Delta’s EN FUEGOO is Saturday… our biggest fund raiser of the year, goal is $1500!!
We are setting up for it all day tomorrow starting at 1… woohoo!
That’s all for now…
♥ to my family who I miss very much ☹

sophomore year!!
I officially completed my first day of classes :) and had a very busy/but good! day. Today I had ethics and social philosophy class (teacher VERY insightful, discussion based) visual cultural studies class (english prof w/ accent... love it!! haha.) reading and typed notes required but i think i'll learn a lot. And my third class was a fiction 1 workshop that I was on the waiting list for and got in! I only meets once a week (tuesdays) so it seems like we get a ton of assignments thrown at us but we have a week to do them. SO all in all it was a success. Tomorrow I only have one class, Images in Children's Lit (heard the prof for that is amazing) and the rest of the day off. yah!
What else.... today was the involvement fair, delta kappa psi had the "deadliest catch" fishy theme going on which was hilarious... hil headed it and i came late; from tennis lifting.. WHICH by the way was way more intense than I imagined... yeah it was an all inclusive basketball/tennis men/womens group and to say I was intimidated would be an understatement.
I absolutely LOVE hilary and my room!! its so cute, I'm obsessed... i'll put up pictures asap! (as soon as jackie helps me download pics from my new comp) :( but yes, living right next to jackie and lj is so convenient and they are the only ones with cable at the moment so gg and the hills was over in their rooommyy last night :)
I love the coziness of north (my dorm) and the fact that its so social but at the same time quiet at nights.
Everything is still new and exciting and I am more than ready to start this year off right!! :)
