Day 24

Now on to today!

So I woke up this morning, after sleeping roughly 9 to 10 hours after a crash from a MAJOR sugar high, and I still felt exhausted, as well as fairly nauseated, so I decided another hour or two of sleep was needed and skipped my German class. My roommate (who is a bad influence on me =]) pointed out that we can only miss 4 days of class with no punishment, which is like we are allowed to skip four days, and that means we can skip one day a month. I happen to really like her logic, so today was my skip day. Hers was yesterday.

After that I went to my other two classes. I got to sit next to a really cute guy in my history class, which, I have to say, was a high point in my day. Other than that, tonight was the last night of rush for the prospective pledges to my sorority. They are interviewed, voted on, and, if they get enough votes, they get a bid, or an offer to join our sorority as a pledge. The roommate and I delivered a bid to one of the girls, who was very excited. They get an invitation to Bid Day (kind of like a congratulatory lunch for getting an invitation) and a rose. While I don't have a picture of the girl's rose, I do have a picture of mine for last semester. Resembles that dinosaur from Jurassic Park, doesn't it?

Day 21

Today was the first day of Spring Rush for my sorority. Our theme this semester is Candyland, which I think is amazing (!) because A) I love Candyland, even if I can't win the game to save my life, and B) I just love candy, regardless of what land I'm in. To go along with the theme, we were instructed to wear bright, happy colors, so, as you see above, the roommate and I did just that. We're standing in front of some fake candy, representing part of the Candyland board.

After meeting all the "rushees", or new girls interested in becoming pledges, we had to deliver goodie bags to two of the girls, one of whom lives in a new apartment complex. Therefore, said complex does not exist in the land of my GPS navigator, and it took forever and a day to find where this chick lived. But hey, it's always fun to have little adventures. Those are what make life special =]
