Pledge, Party and Pathetic...

Last week was pledge week for the sororities on campus, and I pledged Alpha Phi. They didn't want me, but that's okay, because I can't afford them.  It was kinda fun to do though. We made dog toys for the local animal shelter. It was so much fun. That was probably the best part of it, so I guess I'm not all that bummed.

Last weekend was the family reunion, and THAT was a party! My awesome cousin and his wife, and their cute little girl picked me up from my student housing building right after my last class of the day, and we were able to make it to camp by 3. My mom was there, and I gave her a big hug. We played games, and talked, and just enjoyed each other's company. I really love my family. We had a Family Feud Showdown (made by Harmonie) and my team made it to the finals, but lost, by 30 points, I guess there's no beating Holland. We were called the "Red Lanterns" which is a dig at me, but I'm learning to just laugh along and act dumb when my family makes fun of me (it really works) It was really nice to reconnect with my cousins, they really mean alot to me, and I'm so grateful for my big family.

Pathetic... That's how I describe the state I'm in now... I broke my flash-drive in half and it had my essay (due tomorrow) on it, so now I have to rewrite it! Note to self: ALWAYS save important documents on my hard-drive as well as on my flash! Well, now i need to rewrite, but the good news is that it's fixable, so I'll be able to retrieve the lost info if I get it to an electrical engineering student ASAP.

Well, that's all the time I have for now (I DO have an entire essay to rewrite) So I'll leave it at that.

Really, the Red Lanterns was more of name that made it so that Kyle didn't have to be a "Pretty Pretty Princess."
