I'm guessing not only is her mom and Aspen, but either she is or was a higher-up Aspen (National Pres, VP or the like) OR there's a bunch of people in her family that were also Aspens (besides her sister).

I'm with you AlphaFrog. Am I the only one who thinks she might shock her whole family and end up at Taos?

Makes sense. Amazing how being a legacy can help and hurt your during recruitment.

thank you, thank you... i have said that over and over.

no... i am not a "writer." no... i am not an "editor." i am just a normal working woman trying her best to tell her recruitment story, along with that of her sister... and that of her two best friends. i have never, ever thought i was a particularly creative person, i am just too analyical.

i am just writing about our journeys as i go and have been trying to make it as interesting as i am capable of doing. it literally takes forever. granted i write a great deal at work, but it is totally different, totally. i have labored over this thing forever, i never dreamed it would take this much time and so many awful turns. and this format for posting gc uses... i was definitely not prepared for how difficult it can and does get for me, i have a wonderful secretary that "covers" my errors at work and i truly realize how fortunate i am to have her in my professional life. i have always thought i was smart... wrong, i should have done it like maximus406, but isn't hindsight always so much better?

i am just writing as i go... that is why i have made every single grammatical error known to mankind... misspellings, run-on sentences... and dangling participles. i am totally embarassed... and i apologize for not proofing these posts more thoroughly... but i have such a limited about of time. i am truly sorry.

thank you maximus406!

cheers!

Quit being a b*tch. Some of us actually want to read it, instead of attempting to piss her off where she doesnt want to, thanks.

You need to take a chill pill
How is TLD pissing the OP off? If the OP gets pissed by tld telling her to finish her g-d story, well then so be it.

Seriously, this thread is getting too long and taking too much time. Some people (like me) just want it to be done, so we can see what happens.

no, this is not about being a b*tch. it's about getting on with the friggin story. it's about the OP getting it together and stop being an attention-hungry threadstarter, stringing people along in this allegedly false but nonetheless entertaining retro rush. it's about us taking her seriously as a (potentially) respectable GCer. it's about you not tryna start no chit in here.

and if she's pissed off by li'l ol' me over a retro rush thread (yeah, real fighing words ) well she needs to toughen her e-skin.

Totally going out a limb here, but maybe someone in her family was an Aspen founder. Ditto for Callie & Vail (since she's SO certain). Although that would be an insane coincidence...ancestors of the founders of two orgs at the same school in the same year?!?! Oh well, it's fun considering the possibilities...

I don't think it's so much going out on a limb- when I heard Callie was "so sure" she would get into a certain chapter, I too was thinking that she was an ancestor of a founder for that chapter.

see, i thought it was just an overzealous PNM who would have her certainty crushed... but who knows, it seems like she committed a slew of rush faux-pas knowing that she had it in the bag anyway...

I agree with you on the overzealousness; I'm surprised by the extremes some people have gone to with their guessing!
