Cutiepie2000 meets Gphi2k
 

Through private e-mails, cutiepie2000 and I realized that we work a 5 minute walk from one another. Literally. Small world eh? So, after weeks of e-mailing, we finally went for lunch. It was really great to meet someone I have talked to so much and who has common interests. It made our big GreekChat world seem just a little bit smaller.

We were both thinking of posting this thread because at lunch, we were both wondering how many other GreekChat people, who are not in the same chapter (or campus), have met up with someone else they have talked to on GreekChat. We can't be the only ones!!!
Please share your stories http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif .

gphi2k

Yes, 'tis true! We did meet! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif
It was so cool to meet a real life GreekChatter in person. Anyone else out there met face to face? (i.e. where you did not know each other already, prior to Greek Chat?)

When Duncan's Greek Discussion Board was going strong, I was fortunate to meet Chantal, an AGD alum doing grad work down at Univ. of FL. We're still friends and keep in touch (too sporadically, my bad) via e-mail.

Barbara

Not on this board, but another board. I met a sister IRL! It was awesome. I went to her alum chapter meeting one time and another time we did Christmas shopping together and went to dinner!

HOW NEAT! I wish I could meet some of you all! Anyone else every meet someone on greekchat...or how about the internet in general?!?!

I've done the internet dating thing before. Gulp. A dicey thing, but also much fun. Important to have a solid screening procedure in place. A good way to meet new people whose paths you wouldn't normally cross, too.

I met my husband online. We'll be married 3 years come this June and have known each other for 5 years total.

Hey!

Barb--you and your husband are so cute together! Hope y'all are together forever!!!

Amycat--I've done the whole online dating thing too. I'm really kind of embarrassed to say that actually. Anyways...my experiences with it aren't that great.

Anyways...I would love to meet another greekchatter. All of y'all are so sweet and awesome. If any of y'all make it down to Louisiana be sure you let me know. I would love to show y'all around!!!!

I've only met gphi2k personally, but I have talked on the phone to tcsparky and amycat412! Woo hoo!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

We need to all rent a hotel ball room one summer and have a big ol formal shindig. T shirts and the whole nine yards. Sheesh, might get a little out of hand but after you post on here for just a little while you learn a little about everyone's personality.

Hey Hammell, wanna rent us a hotel ballroom somewhere for a weekend so we can all come get wild??? BTW- never got response from you about making me a moderator of a beer thread........bad idea?

That's hilarious!!!

Here's a thought(JUST a thought):

How about I talk to the governor of Louisiana and get him to block off Bourbon Street down in New Orleans for a weekend for just us greekchatters. And then for BillyOptimist I get Britney Spears to come perform. And of course for Amycat, GPhi, Prospectiverushee, and myself...I have our adorable Dave come perform!!!!

Again...I say this is just a thought!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Amy "mrs. dave matthews"

ha ha ha

LOL. I'm all over that idea!!! I'm also into the Dave Matthews rental idea. Lousiana sounds great. I've never been there.

Although, you have to admit, it would be an interesting scene.

Pro-Hazers in one corner, Anti-Hazers in another. DMB fans in the other while the Sublime people hang out in the remaining corner. Candians will be grouped together discussing dry housing and it's lack of applicability to our houses with houses that have gone dry or are pro-or against going dry. We'll have a huge circle talking about the ins and outs of LSU rush and discussions about how hilarious and humilating some of our drinking experiences have been. And don't forget the group of sorority girls comparing Kate Spade bags and other such sorority girl essentials.

NPC/NPHC/BGLOs/GLOs will answer questions about the differences in their systems for the MILLIONTH time and there will be a list posted on the wall with definitions to all the terms that vary between houses.

Billy will be giving a pep talk on how great everyone really is and how great life is all the way around. And AmyCat will be yelling at all the girls who even dare suggest that Dave Matthews will pick them over her.

Of course we'll have that small group of posters who don't show up because theyare annonymous about where they live and which house they are affiliated with so they can get honest responses to their controversial questions.

And last but not least, we'll be waiting on DrinknNole to show up to shake up the party.

It's sure to be quite the event, and one I wouldn't want to miss!!!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif .

AGAIN, I must bring up the AGE thing and say Dave and I are more appropriate for one another. hee hee But, again, I am willing to share with prospectiverushee, gphi2k and other similarily obsessed greekchatters. ha ha ha

Age is just a number(he,he) BTW, Dave is just 5 yrs older then me http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Well if everyone would be willing to come up to Ottawa, I could take some time to show the hot spots of the city. It's kind of dull right now, not much goes on in the spring compared to winterlude and the tulip festival in the summer. It's still hasn't warmed up very much, i think it's still snowing out. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

Thumbs up for Ottawa - it's about time I visited OUR nation's capital. Also Montreal would be awesome, and what about Vancouver.... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Hey, you know with all you Dave Lovers http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif we should really meet in our nations capitol. Because its near my state Virginia, DMB's homeland http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Siobhan, you crack me up http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Yeah lets all meet up. Canada would be awesome!

If there is anyone in MI here, let me know!! I have to say that I LOVE this site, I'm new here and I am addicted!!! It is so wonderful talking to other GLO members

Katey, ZA chapter of AGD
"Could I have been anyone other than me?"-Dave Matthews

come on ya'll, i know everyone is just dying to meet by me here in iowa http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif there's just so much to do...

Even though I was being a bit tongue in cheek when I referred to "our nation's capital" as Ottawa, I have to say, coming to Canada for a big reunion party would be great for you Americans....you would get a wicked exchange rate on the USD$, whereas, if we Canadians had to travel to the US, that exchange rate pretty much pummels us....

TORONTO IS THE PLACE TO BE PEOPLE!!!!
It's nice and it's Southern Canada, and relatively central (sorry B.C. people but you're just too dang far). And Ottawa, well, it's nice and all, but Toronto is closer to the U.S. border and way way way cooler http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif . hehe.

We got that CN tower thing going. And a big huge amusement park. And, afterall, I'm here http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif .

Canada eh? lol as long as I dont come home and want to go ice fishing and saying eh after everything I'm in.

Good one Cutiepie! (seeing as how this is our thread http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif ). It would be SOOOO much cheaper for you guys. Our dollar is pathetic compared to your's. So if you're gonna do it anywhere, it should be in CANADA, in TORONTO http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif .

Okay, people, I feel the need to dispell/clarify the perception that Canada is chilly...yes it is chilly in winter, but then again so is most of north USA.....
Toronto's climate is pretty much the same as Buffalo.
Vancouver's climate is pretty much the same as Seattle.

Vancouver in summer.... (July and August)...you will never see a prettier city!

And Buffalo and Seattle are two US places I would never live because of the weather!!

But then again look at where I've spent my life: Las Vegas, San Diego, Los Angeles. Def. a warm weather girl!! ha ha

Honestly if you want to have a good time no, there's no better place than Ottawa. We have an exceptional night time, tons of ambassadors to hang out with, the Casino de Hull, ect., ect. Not to mention Ottawa in the summer is absolutely beautiful. Plus the english/french mix is very sauve (sp?) http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/cool.gif
We're only about 4 hours from Syracuse.

Sorry T.O., but this is the place to be. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif

Forgot to mention that we're only an hour and half from Montreal http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
That is one amazing city.

Kevin, You haven't skiied until you've skiied at Whistler and Blackcomb!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

KABillyMac, I dont think we would know what to do that far north in Canada. We would probably stick out a bit. I wouldnt look unusual in my Red Wings and Khakis up there, would I? (For you non southerners, I am not refering to a hockey team when I say RedWings. Its a type of boot.)

I am up for partying WHEREVER! I am telling yall, greekchat.com formal! Would so Rock. The Senior Members could have a new member workshops for the Junior members, led by gphi2k, and Artmis. it would be great. there could be the 1000 post club, like for alumni.

Of course, you know who would probably show up, threatning all of us with lawsuits and injunctions and stuff. We'd have to get security involved, Mr. H would have to have a bodyguard.

Billy Optimist would be the MC for some reason. I could see kevin DJing, 12Dn94dst, AKA2d91 leading the rest of us in the electric slide, cutiepie2000 would be in charge of Decorations, along with OTW and localsororities. Penguintrax, carnation, AXo alum, ISU_XO and TomEarp would be the hosts. Mikki would get cutest couple with the fiance, 'cause they so in love....

And from the posts I have read, me along with dc1, bucutie, damasa, LSUTigergirl, amycat, KsigRC, lil_g, and QT-Pie would all be at the bar having a grand old time http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif, competing for most embarising greekchat.com formal story.

lifesaver

PS We'd have to have a moment of silence for all our lost greekchaters.com who have gone on to join the omega club, Heather, UCLA Theta Chi, SigEpYoda, etienneSAI, honeybee, and the others. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif <sniff>

How about LAS VEGAS????

benfits: Californians and Arizonans can Dirve, and CHEAP airfare can be found from all other destinations. And PLENTY of hotel rooms in ALL price categories.

As much as i'm down with Las Vegas or California, I don't think you yanks really know how bad our dollar is. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif
When I was at daytona for spring break everything I spent money on (food, booze) cost an additional 50%.

What I can't understand is how there's no price difference, for example at fast-food chains. Let's say A BK meal in Canada would cost $5 can., but if I bought that same meal in the states it would cost $5 american http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif

That's why if americans came up here, a $5 meal would only cost $3.33, see what i'm getting at.
