- I got swats in school EVERY YEAR from Kindergarten to 9th grade.

I have a really really bad tea addiction too. Not just any tea, its either gotta be my own, or if its store bought its gotta be Lipton in a bottle, no lemon. I cant pass a store without stopping to get one.

Here's some interesting facts about TriDeltaGal:

-Me and my two best friends all share the first same name, a one is a TriDelt at another chapter.

-My parents almost named me Rhiannon after the Fleetwood Mac song.

-I cried when the season finale of "The Sopranos" last year because I knew I couldn't watch it for another year. I am SERIOUSLY addicted the show.

-pbpck, I was also voted "Most Talkactive" in my senior class and won by a landslide. The other girl got like 30 votes out of 500.

-My family has its own castle in Italy, which is rightfully ours because my grandfather was the eldest son of all of his siblings but some distant cousins live in it.

-My parents moved in my house the day I was born and I have lived there ever since. I came three weeks early while my parents were moving in and because of this I was almost born in the backseat of their Volkswagon Bug because it had no gas from moving back and forth all day.(Iowahawkeye, me too!)
