Go to Magic Mountain! Valencia is really pretty, I'm sure you'll have fun (I live about an hour from there).

Have a good weekend!

Not enough time for a trip to Magic Mountain. It was pretty much an in on Friday, out today with a meeting on Saturday. It was more relaxing than anything, which I really needed to.

Great turnout though........

My HAPPY News!
 

Congrats to you! Take time to enjoy your wedding!

My happy news...I got married on April 30th to my then boyfriend of 10 years.

I think this thread needs a revival, or at least a comeback! :D

I never posted on GC, I don't think, but I got a full scholarship to law school, and I think that's a pretty happy thing! :D

GP, that is indeed a happy thing!! Congratulations to you!:)

thanks all! it was a long wait and difficult at times. we meet in college and didn't want to marry until we graduated. well, my honey did a double major in chemical and natural gas engineering, so it took about 6 1/2 years to finish that. only took me 4 years and a few summers, but i started my grad degree while waiting for him....took me 4 yrs to finish....so now we are 8 years into it....then he got extremely sick right when we were getting ready to start planning a wedding. so, two years later, he's pretty much healthy again and i planned that wedding in about 3 months! i had been thinking about it long enough, so it wasn't too bad.

Our newest alumnae chapter, Santa Clarita Valley, was installed yesterday afternoon by yours truly!

It was my first time doing an installation and it was wonderful to see the hard work come to fruition.

Congrats to everyone's happy news, that's really cool about the Santa Clarita Valley chapter! It's so far from everywhere else in SoCal...

So now for my good news! I got into a graduate program for fall quarter! I'm so excited! I start September 12 at the U of Redlands in the MA in Education, Higher Education program! :D

One step closer to really having a career!

wooohoooo! congrats on the MA program. hope you enjoy it! my VP wants me to start working on my Ed.D...yeah right. i'm done with classes!

I joined the Minneapolis-St. Paul Alumnae Chapter today! :D

YEAH!

I have even better news now! A little history first:

I've been working at UC Riverside in the office of Student Life since November 2004 (I also worked there as a student assistant when I was an undergraduate) as the Interim Coordinator for Student Organizations. I knew that the permanent position was supposed to be filled by July 1, and I intended on going for it from the start. Well, I took a temporary position as Manager for Student Organizations when my Interim contract ended on June 30, and was in the application pool for the permanent coordinator... it felt like the search took FOREVER! I applied in late April, phone interviewed in July (10 applicants of 110 were phone interviewed), and interviewed in person in early August (only 3 got in person interviews).

Needless to say, I was stoked, I really didn't think I'd get an interview to say the least. Well, it was 3 weeks after my in person interview and I was starting to get nervous... until yesterday when the position was offered to me! Apparently, they had some difficulty selecting a candidate, I wasn't the first choice (the first choice has 12 years of experience, a Masters and is working on the EdD; I'm starting my masters program in a week and ony have about 10 months of professional experience), but the first choice declined for better money elsewhere so they selected me! I'm stoked (I still beat out 108 other candidates!); this is my first career position! NO MORE CONTRACTS! Technically, I started the job on Friday as soon as I submitted my resignation letter from my current position (which we now have to hire a replacement for) and I've been doing the job since NOvember, so it's nothing new, but I'm so excited!

Congratulations! That is so awesome and is going to be great experience for you while earning your masters!

HURRAY! :D

Congratulations on the job!!:)

this thread needs reviving! my old chapter at Corpus Christi just won a bunch of awards from the campus! I can't remember all of them, but some are:

best president
best chapter advisor
best founder's day activity
best order of omega member

and they just initiated 22 out of 23 women.

I LOVE THEM! Hurray to Zeta Lambda!

Yay for them! And it's SmartBlondeGPhB's birthday, so that is a happy thing in and of itself!

I'll be done with my first semester of law school in 5 weeks, and I have a legal job for over Christmas break, so that's pretty happy! :D

Thanks.

It's also KunjaPrincess's 1 year anniversary of being an American citizen.

I got an "upgrade" at work. I am now in charge of an entire training class for the Air Combat Command for the Air Force. I will now am in charge of the Classroom Instructor course. I teach people how to teach. I now have actual responsibility

Just got an email from my chapter's treasurer - Gamma Omega initiated all 13 new members on Friday night, meaning they now are at 29 sisters! :D

This is the largest they've been in quite some time, and I am really happy for them.

Re: I Thought This Was Cute
 

LOL....that's cute!

.....Kelly :)

Making another brief appearance to celebrate the fact my baby sister was just elected President of the Alpha Alpha chapter at the University of Toronto!:D

Congrats to her! :D

I'm turning 21 next Friday.. January 13....


Zeta Sigma has our first chapter meeting of the semester next Monday with our new exec board that we are all so excited about!!!

Good Luck! Hopefully you aren't superstitious

Delta Lambda 30th birthday
 

Tomorrow the Delta Lambda chapter and Inland Empire Alumnae will be celebrating the 30th birthday for Delta Lambda (UC Riverside)! We were one of the initial three Panhellenic sororities at UCR in the 1970s (other two were Kappa and Theta) and the chapter is still going strong!

My Seahawks are making their FIRST trip to the SUPERBOWL!!!

Now how did I know you would be posting this here :D

Well, I have a HUGE post in my livejournal blog too.....

The entire GP family will be cheering for them - we dislike Pitt and we like Hasselbeck!

Yay Shaun Alexander! He's my man.

It's kind of funny that I'm going to Pittsburgh this weekend for an alumnae extension meeting.........lol

We have a date set for installation of our Alumnae Chapter! March 4, YEAH! We are so excited.

My sister (also a Gamma Phi) delivered our family a St. Patrick's gift, Jacob David. He's the first grandbaby for my parents, so everyone is very excited. :)
