I say joke based on being here for 7 years.

I mean, there's a "secret" (aka "thing") about the giant girl with large hands and baggy pants, a rich senator's daughter who is "East Indian" or something (Rebecca Logan from "Greek"??) a chapter full of women wearing sequins...

Then again, you could be right, AzTheta, she could be logged in right now. Silly me.

how did i miss the sequins part!??! hahaha

Wow...good catch.

*headdesk*

You're turning into my enabler.

*pours myself a glass*

Freakin' amen.

Well, before I object to people doubting my veracity and flounce off, I'll post a little more COMPLETELY TRUE information.

We got our invitations back for 2nd round, and as expected, Chardonnay got invited back only to LADYBUGS. I would have been embarrassed, but she said it was "fabulous".

I was stunned to find out that I had been cut from both ARROWS and TRIANGLES (and KITES, but I expected that, with the heat stroke and all)! And I still have my ARROWS sippy-cup!

So it was down to ANCHORS, LADYBUGS, and OWLS. Tonight was a combination philanthropy and skit night (BTSU is odd like that).

OWLS did a really cute skit (even though the sight of all those affordable Steve Maddens were driving me crazy). Surprisingly, some of the OWLS seemed put off that I had worn Mommy's Channel diamond-crusted owl necklace --- you would think they would take it as a compliment.

I told the ANCHORS that they might be able to use Daddy's helicopter for some of the diving competitions for their philanthropy, and they just didn't seem to appreciate it!

But the highlight of the night was LADYBUGS, who did Karaoke. The girls outdid themselves with sequins, sparkly tights, and great singing - Streisand, Minelli, and "And I Tell You I'm Not Going".

(Extra points to Ree-Xi for getting the Rebecca Logan reference!! It's so reassuring these days to see someone with both excellent reading comprehension AND pop culture savvy!)

Yes, I'm predicting pink sequined hose any moment.

I object to your leaving out thong bikinis with big fluffy tails! You're biased!

I'm calling my IHQ!

I've recieved numerous PMs in support of my position! I would post them but I want to protect anonymity!

well ya never know anymore with half crazy stories being posted on here!

i figured joke as soon as i saw the symbols, buttttttt with a lot of the stories on here recently... :rolleyes:

I'm waiting for the Violet Volcano.

Gee, what gave it away? :D

Rebecca Logan was easy. I was more amused by your dad's helicopter and more impressed by the allusions to The Lady Chablis.

Well, since there are people here who don’t believe me, I’ll just cut to the chase and tell you that Chardonnay and I both ended up with only one preference party. Your mean and cynical doubts have just deprived yourselves from hearing about the beautiful, moving, ceremony that is LADYBUG preference.
The next morning, we went to Post Office, and got our envelopes.
The LADYBUGS came running towards us and literally swept us off our feet (no, really, they picked us up and carried us back to the house).
And that night, I finally found out Chardonnay’s secret, which is……











She’s related to General Patton on her dad’s side.
I’ve decided that discretion is the better part of valor, and I won’t reveal what national sorority LADYBUGS is, but I’ve been told that our initiation involves a giant animatronic ladybug and spoons. Lots and lots of spoons. So that may be a hint to any of my initiated sisters on this board…..

(Ooo, and an A+ to Mystic Cat for picking up the "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" sort-of reference)

Yay, ladybugs! You'll never get better fashion advice than with the fabulous sisters of that house!!

I fit in the fluffy tail costume, unlike those dirty and disgusting CORs. I won't lose my membership.

Oh, AOP Angel - you have no idea! They are the most amazingly dressed girls on campus (except for those scarves)

They've sort of made me there mascot - my pledge nickname (sorry MEMBER EDUCATION nickname) is "breeder". I think because I told them that I had a rabbit hutch as a child!
