I think everyone should wear a bright orange hat with purple feathers. Also wear a lime green leotard with yellow elf shoes. That way you would be able to find each other immediately.

I love you, <>

I'm SO looking for my yellow elf shoes right now

I was thinking something easier. damn!

I was thinking just exchange cell phone numbers.

Not knowing the hotel I can't hazard a guess where we could meet. In Phoenix it was easy because I went to the hotel ahead of time, plus when I went home I could post on GC.

Then again we could get shirts. I know that sounds wierd but I just went to greekgear.com (I think) and ordered two screen print shirts and I got them within a week. Just a thought.

How about ribbons? We could pick a color (white, azure, violet?) and all have them pinned on. That might be easier than ordering t-shirts.

That's a good idea since as delegates we will have lanyards with our names on them

If y'all know each other IRL names, just pick a time and meet in the lobby next to the desk.

And no, that statement does NOT mean that I expect to be there (so take a LOT of pictures!!).

No clue yet. Unfortunately, Brianna has been not as active (

) this year as last (i.e. no cheer), so I've gained some poundage (eek!). I'm going to be looking for a new formal and semi formal pretty quick here.

Oh if you want picture ideas

, convention 2005 thread has pictures posted to it from the semi-formal dinner and then from formal dinner.

Sorry I'm not much help.

You'll find some of everything for the final banquet. I've seen church dresses and I've seen formal gowns. Find something you're comfortable in but makes you feel special.

Wow- that probably didn't help much, did it?

Well I have my outfit like that from the last ritual initiation so I could pull that out. (also you really shouldn't post such private ritual information on GC)

I am really starting to get excited - I have never been to convention - I have most of my outfits purchased and I think I am ready to go. PLUS, and I know this is wierd - I LOVE TO FLY - I just love it. I don't know why - plus I love airports - I guess it is the fact that you could go anywhere from there and get there faster then driving. oops sorry for getting off of the subject.

Connie, if you love to fly, you would totally love our airport! It's actually a mall that happens to have an airport terminal around it. I was coming home from Cali just prior to Christmas, and was walking in front a group of pilots & flight attendants. They were so excited to have a layover in Pittsburgh so that they could do all their Christmas shopping in one fell swoop!

My "formal" is a long black (asymmetrical hem) dress with red embroidered flowers along the shoulder straps and as an accent along the *ahem* neck line

"Semiformal" is a knee-length black cocktail dress with a small circle rhinestone accent at around my tummy, and white dress is a sleeveless sundress that hits me at the knee (I've had it from Target since around the time the last Convention was over

)

My mind is going over and over the ten million things that I need to pack and get together in the next 2 1/2 weeks. Unfortunately, I'm spending the next 1 1/2 weeks getting my "ducks in a row" with my internship hours and closing out the school year.

I'm in agreement for the ribbon - what color should we go for? I also suggest we try and meet up the first night - perhaps we could try sitting together at dinner? Otherwise, I also suggest picture on the formal night - that was fun last time!

Which dinner do we need a semi-formal dress for? I have plenty of those!! Still on the hunt for a formal dress (just want to get something long).

The chapter I advise is alllllso up for Golden Lion for the firs time this year!

ADPiAkron, I PMed you

ASUADPi · #15 06-08-2007, 09:44 PM

Semi-final is for the opening banquet; formal is for final dinner.

I agree with a violet (or purple) ribbon. Works for me.

I have gotten PM's from Jwright25 and Azureblue with their information.

If you "see"

your name could you please PM me with your name and cell phone number.
