i have so many fabulous memories from pledging, as to how i got my nickname, fundraising stories, activities storis...but i think by far, my favorite is the rice krispie treat story...*sits everyone in a circle* it's storytime!
two of my pledge sisters adn i were in charge of making rice krispie treats for a campus-wide sale we were having to raise money for the pledge class. now, i'm a VERY good cook...when it's complicated. but give me a create-a-meal or something easy like brownies adn i screw it all up. so here we are, jen, juli and i making these rice krispie treats. jen had just gotten done melting the butter and marshmallows and was pouring it into the cereal so we could mix it. well, i decided that using our hands would be easier than mixing it with a spoon or something...less clumpy. WRONG! i stuck both my hands in the mix and immediately got STUCK in the batter! so i'm up to my arms in rice krispie treats. juli was on the floor laughing at me and jen was just flipping out because we were on a deadline. so juli decides to get the stick of butter and grease up my hands and arms so i could slide them out. she did that, and i started mixing the treats with my arms and hands greased up with butter. it was definately the most fun i had doing something with my pledge sisters.
nupe, i TOTALLY hear you on the smiling thing. i was always the pledge class clown...the joker. so i was always the one smiling and getting the rest of us in trouble. granted, it was a dumb-ass thing to do, but i have sympathy now for my pledge ladies who smile and joke around. one ended up being my little...must run in the family!
