Bwahaha, I make fun of Scumburg all the time and I grew up in Arlington Heights. Hell, I make fun of Arlington Heights, too!

OK kids - I am definitely in unless we have a monsoon on Wednesday night. I'm going to be coming down after my final exam, so I might be late, but I'll be there!

As for recognization - I'm thinking either letters or badges? And since we are reserving a table (right alphachiohmy?), then we could put it as the "Greek table" or something like that.

AlphaFrog, if you need directions from the Peoria, I can give them to you - and definitely go check out IKEA! It is right by Woodfield and is sooo much fun!

I think damasa might be coming with me also, I'll ask him next time he's on.

So do we want to go letters or pin attire? How fancy is this place?

Geeky-directions would be wonderful! PM me....I cleaned out my box!

AlphaFrog · #36 08-01-2003, 07:14 PM

Ok...so I thought since I had Wed off I'd come up Tuesday night...but I can't find a hotel where you can check in if your'e under 21 (I'm 5 months shy...) HELP!

alphachiohmy · #37 08-03-2003, 08:22 PM

OK, so I am getting ready to make reservations. Counting from this thread there could be nine of us. I will try and put the name under "John hammell." (it sounds a little more normal than "greekchat") Are there any changes?

8 p.m. @ Maggianos Schaumburg

Maggianos is nice, but I think you could get away with wearing jeans and nice sandals and a nice shirt, or khakis. Anyone have any preference?? Let me know.

Three days away!

Alpha Frog - sorry I don't know of any hotels. Maybe you could buy online and then just go w/o them ever checking id???

GeekyPenguin · #38 08-03-2003, 11:01 PM

I think we could go either way also (for clothing). AlphaFrog, I will send you some directions tomorrow (my head is broken right now and they won't be very helpful).

Maybe you could decide whether you'd rather wear letters or a pi individually? I'll probably wear my pin because my letters are all crazy (hot pink, polka dots, etc) so would look sort of out of place, but I think more subdued letters would be fine...

AlphaFrog · #39 08-04-2003, 03:59 AM

I just got a really cute new dress and outfit (I don't know which I want to wear yet...) so I think I'm going pin (plus I love my pin!)...

And I'm a really big idiot (again)...my aunt lives just outside of Orland Park...Hello..FREE room & board...

astroAPhi · #40 08-04-2003, 10:51 AM

AlphaFrog, I've booked many a room before I was 21. The whole booking online thing does work. But hopefully you won't even have to worry and be able to stay with your aunt!

I will be in pin attire, but no pin.

My little sister still has mine... maybe I will be tacky and wear my A Phi flip flops.

alphachiohmy · #41 08-05-2003, 12:44 AM

reservations are made for 8:00!!! anyone have a camera?

AlphaFrog · #42 08-05-2003, 02:51 AM

I'm getting a disposable camera.

Any other info I need to know needs to be up by tomarrow morning because I'm taking off around noon for Chicago....

I'm so excited!

GeekyPenguin · #43 08-05-2003, 02:55 AM

So my Phil. professor is a dick and has decided he is going to lecture some more before our final...we are allegedly starting it at 6:15, but I'll believe that when I see it.

I am going to try really hard to make it, but if I'm in that final until 8, I'm not driving to Schaumburg and back afterwards. If I'm not there by like 9:00, it's because I'm not coming...

I HATE SCHOOL.

RedRoseSAI · #44 08-05-2003, 11:22 AM

I haven't responded to this thread in a while because I've been crazy-busy getting ready for SAI convention, and then I was at convention, but now I'm back! I'll definitely be there at 8pm on Wednesday - am I included in the reservations?

alphachiohmy · #45 08-05-2003, 08:59 PM

Yup, everyone is included who said they might/could come. No big changes. I think I will be in letters, but they are on a pullover (blue and green). See you all soon!
