just an update.

after reading all the crazy drama on the recruitment stories board, here is whats been going on with us:

We chose Cinderella, to petition for national affliation, after other engineering org Pocahontas just kinda stopped talking to us. Like fell off the face of the earth stopped talking to us [and i've sent emails to their nationals] {the reason i am using code names is bc i don't feel totally comfortable revealing the org just in case what happened with Pocahontas happens with Cindy... but i think this ones a keeper ].

Anyways as most of you know hurricane Ike hit the Gulf coast [and tech got a 'flood' day on a perfectly sunny day], anyways, i got an email today from Cinderella Exec, wondering if our sisters and families were ok. I was so happy that this org acually cared even tho i've never even talked to this person over the phone! i told my VP and she shared the same excitement [even tho she is a bit under the weather and it sounded more like 'oh wow thats so cool'.... i hope its not contagious]

Formal chapter is tommorrow, where we will [or I will] offically announce officers and what NEEDS to get done for recruitment week... WOOT! then i'll step back and let my minions do their work...

on a total side note: The chrome ring for my trackball on my Blackberry fell out. and it sucks... hopefully i can convince [yes i have to convince] my dad to spring the like $8 it will take to replace it.
GAH.

I am so thrilled for you and your sisters Jess!!

How amazing it must be to walk into a formal chapter meeting knowing that you wrote the whole thing. I know formal meetings are my favorite ones. I love ritual!

woot. the second meeting was today [and seeing as i only gave like a 24 hour notice prior due to the weather situation, the meeting was supposed to be on friday, when campus was closed] i say i had a faily decent turnout of 4 people. i've been too upset about my dad [instead of spending like $8 to buy me a new trackball he's going to ship me my old POS phone] to be upset about the meeting numbers. I am currently looking for an on campus job and it is stressing me out, and hopefully when i get my job i can fix my phone.
ANYWAYS. our recruitment week is finalized. It kinda hard to run formal meetings as formal [since the flow of people at meetings isn't consistant, and well this was our first...], and the ritual is still settling down.
But i am so excited about our recruitment theme.... we got a lot done today and i am happy to be settling down into the groove of things, along with allocating jobs.... its hard for me to realize that i CAN actually let other people do things, [the last few times i did that, i ended up doing everything by myself.] but now that i am starting to i feel some of the pressure lifted... an di need that now that i have homework due everyday, and some crazy hard classes [along with some not so crazy ones ].

ok well i guess i'm tired because i think i'm rambling.

Jess I know exactly what you mean about letting go and letting others do things! It's so hard!

But the great thing about it is, when it works, you know that you have solid women behind you. I'm learning that the slow [and hard!] way.
