^^ this! when i am sending an email to my FRIENDS, having perfect grammar and spelling is hardly my main priority!

on the same note, i think some people are forgetting that this is a message from one sister to people she knows well. if i got a list like this from someone i didn't know well, i might be offended but we have to remember that this is a house officer touching base with the house during what is a very stressful time for her. this was never meant to be dissected by a wide audience (that may or may not have any greek experience) and i don't think it was inappropriate given its proposed context/audience.

familiarity with recipients + rush stress = casual, to-the-point writing style.
