Things are not going so well with NBO these days. I don't even quite know where to begin. For starters, several of our sisters are sick, and one of them is now inactive because she needs to go home and be with her doctor there. For another, things with our expansion efforts are all screwy. Alpha Xi Delta sent Mariko a list of dates that would be good for them to come present at our school. Mariko never responded. AZD then sent a follow up schedule, but Mariko never responded. Since Mariko has been so on top of things, I assumed that AZD had been slacking off, and as soon as she heard anything, she would let me know. But as it turns out, once I got in contact with AZD, I learned that this whole mixup in communication has cost us our opportunity to potentially affiliate with them this year. So, that means that, in fall, we will have to forge ahead with rush without help from a higher organization, which is going to be really hard, especially considering that our spring rush was remarkably complicated. Beyond this, NBO is now fully a part of the greek gossip scene, thanks largely in part to me. Members of other sororities do not appear to like us very much. Rumors were spread about me having sex with guys that I definitely did not have sex with, and basically we are now known as hoes (spell?) even know we aren't. Plus, there's all this talk about how Alpha Psi used to hang out with Delta Omega Chi all the time, but now we hang out with them, so Alpha Psi doesn't like us. And, since we're with DOC, Alpha Psi now hangs out with Theta Chi, and now Theta Chi supposedly spends more time with Alpha Psi then Gamma Phi Beta, so Gamma Phi doesn't like us. I realize this is all just stupid gossip but I don't want to be a part of it at all. And yet, I've done things that place me in the rumor mill, I'm so stupid sometimes. We went to this luau thing that Theta Chi had, and a girl from Gamma Phi Beta was at the entrance. She's all "Are you in Gamma Phi or Alpha Psi?" and so we were like no, we're in Nu Beta Omicron. And then she's all "Well why are you here then?" all kinds of rude. I don't want to be the person who inspires such hostility. So I'm just feeling very dismal about NBO right now. I wish things were just a teensy tiny bit easier ya know? Just a little. I'm just rambling now, I'm sorry. More later or if anything happens.
