Hey all,

I think this whole roomate thing has been good in a couple ways, mainly because its prompted me to rethink my friendships with some people. Sometimes there are people I just put up with, and I'm just not in the mood to do that anymore. Why would I want to hang out with people who bring me down all the time? So since then I've been spending more time with NBO and less time with my outside "friends", and having alot of fun. On Friday night we all went out to a party and just chilled, and it was really nice. We all enjoyed ourselves and had fun and it was just amazing to all of us that we could do that together so well. So I'm really glad we had that chance to bond more. And then on Saturday, the girls went and played softball with DOC (the source of previous drama), but I had to work. I'm really glad we planned that event though, because everyone (from NBO and DOC) that I've talked to said they had a really good time, and I think it made everyone feel a little more comfy. But then here is the drama. One of our pledges- Marissa- works with me at Macy's. Saturday was our first full day open and it was CRAZY. So we both ended up working late and not being able to get out until like 10. The pledges had planned a slumber party for all of us, but then there was this drama because the other two- Suzette and Toni- got into this huge fight earlier that day and didn't want to talk to eachother. So we tried to figure out what to do. Some of my sisters wanted to go get each of them and basically force them to work things out. I didn't think that was a good idea, I thought giving them some space and time to cool off would work better, especially considering that I know Suzette well enough to be aware that she would NOT appreciate that kind of interference. So then we were all trying to get together to just have a slumber party with the rest of us, but no one could agree on where we should meet or what we should do. We took a majority vote to go to Marissa's, but a two sisters didn't want to go. So we decided that, for that night, we didn't have to have a sisterhood activity. The same two sisters who didn't want to go to Marissa's were also depressed about breaking up with their boyfriends, and one of our sisters was really sick, so it seemed like it would be better to postpone it. Makes sense right? But now people are freaking out about how we always delay things, and we never get anything done, and I don't even understand why so much drama is being made about something that is honestly not that big of a deal. So after these two sisters refused to go- they decided to just go home instead- we decided that we could just go chill at Marissa's and just hang out. But some people wanted to stay home and get some sleep, so as it turned out, only me and one other sister went. I suspect that at this meeting tonight I will learn why this is such a big deal- it just stresses me out. I have soooooo much going on in my life right now, and I don't need drama that isn't even necessary. And furthermore, my one sister who is REALLY pissed about this whole thing (although I don't even know why) has been leaving away messages on her instant messenger that are all like "leave me alone, don't bother me with stupid shit, people just keep disapointing me and i don't want to deal with it. i don't want to talk to you" She IMed me that evening and said "Everything is messed up. I hope you had fun." And then she signed off. I'm sorry, I just don't need that kind of negativity, especially when there does not appear to be a good reason for it!! I'm trying to be open minded so I can hopefully figure out the root of this problem, but right now I am very overwhelmed. But I did find out that AZD will be coming to present in mid-May sometime! Tri-Sigma hasn't responded yet, which is a little wierd. And Alpha Phi and Kappa Kappa Gamma (the two orgs that Alpha Psi, the other local org, want to affiliate with) haven't responded yet either. So who knows how things will work out. Sorry this is so long, I've been working soooo much that I haven't had time to do anything else and I had to catch up!
love, Corina
