That was moi, and moi's niece, lol.

Will pm you her FB name.

It's only a few weeks until I get to see my sisters again! I'm so excited! :D

I was looking through some pictures from my collegiate SAI days. As I looked at the pictures, I realize that some of my sisters did not understand badge attire.

What happened? :p

I was working on a recruitment page for my SAI book (which, btw, only has 2 pages left). Anyway, I have pictures from a night where we were obviously supposed to be in badge attire. A sister (god bless her) was wearing her badge with jeans. Oy!

We sometimes do that, but only if we're wearing nice tops. It's not preferred, though.

^^^At my collegiate chapter, badge attire=nice blouse, nice pants/skirt/dress, and some sort of heel. With the exception of participating in ritual ceremonies, we did not wear any kind of casual shoe with our badge.

Oh, we never wear casual shoes either. We only do relaxed pin when we're doing our alumnae breakfast or 2 other things I can't remember right now. That means nice top, nice jeans (must be in good repair and no pre-made holes), and dress shoes. But as I said, most of the time, we wear regular pin.

It only took me two years after graduating, but I HAVE FINISHED MY SAI COLLEGIATE SCRAPBOOK. I'm debating if I should start an alumnae one.....

We had a wonderful start to our school year here! Two alumni came back and had frozen yogurt with some of us. We got to hear what their first summer after college was like (And how everyone must go to Disney with their friends after graduation). One is now a high school band director and the other is in law school. It is wonderful getting to see everyone since it feels like we only just met before they had to leave. And it was just a wonderful way to start out the upcoming week.

Our first chapter meeting is tomorrow night, and I'm so excited. I'm co-FRED chair again, and I can't wait to work with my co-chair on FRED stuff. Also, our rush shirts are almost done!

That sounds like so much fun! I mean, the history part of me comes out when I think about learning about anything that has a history. And that person is jumping!

And I'm excited about rush! We may actually have a fall rush this year (we normally did but they were thinking about not having it since last year there were only two women...)! 9 women are interested apparently!

Oh, and I want to be a little braggadocios for the wonderful women that were in my chapter last year (since I only got initiated at the end of April). Our province officer showed up to a meeting of the entire music department to present the Collegiate Chapter of the Year Award! There was much screaming, and interest in SAI has skyrocketed in only a few hours. This little school of 2600... we are gonna keep chugging along!

Our rush starts soon, too! We've got a lot fun stuff planned, like an ice cream social, and an open choir.

Some of my sisters and I got to sing with some Phi Mu Alpha men and other people at a wedding yesterday, and the wedding was lovely! :)

I hope all collegiate SAIs on the board, let us know how recruitment turns out!!! I love hearing about new rosebuds!
