AXiD Random

lovespink88 · #1 10-27-2011, 06:38 PM

Copying the other forums that have an "XYZ Random" thread. I thought we needed a thread to share random AXiD things going on in our lives that may not exactly warrant a new thread.

I just got an email asking if I would like to volunteer to help with officer interviews/selection for the DePaul colony!!!

I'd really love to help and although it looks like it may be a large time commitment for a weekend, I actually am pretty free that weekend. Just waiting to confirm the times before I give a final yes or no.

I'm just so thrilled to be helping out a colony--I know that there were many women who volunteered and gave time to help my colony be a success, it's the least I can do to pay it forward.

That's awesome. All I'm doing is going back for the weekend and attending Homecoming as an alum for the first time.

Officer interviews for DePaul went well (but was EXHAUSTING!) Still happy to be a part of it though. I see lots of potential for that colony

That's great! They sure have a growing Greek system! I think they should start pushing for dorm floors/buildings! Housing is so weird there and of course buying private housing would be out of the question.

Keep us informed!

I'm SO excited for DePaul's installation next weekend. It's going to be held at a super awesome venue, Cafe Brauer, at the Lincoln Park Zoo! (We considered it for our wedding

) http://www.lpzoo.org/events/host-pri...nt/cafe-brauer

What a beautiful place to hold an installation! Back in my day we held initiations in the middle of the night in a dark room. What a difference to be in a glass house at mid day!

Now I'm so interested to hear how the presentation at USC went. Anyone? Anyone?

I'm so bummed. I found an old AXiD song book that I really wanted. I was keeping my eye on it but since I was out of town yesterday and catching up on work emails this morning, I completely forgot about the auction and missed it.

It went for only $8.50. Such a deal!!!

I still have mine, Sing Out for Alpha Xi Delta, in the yellow flexible binder. I'm glad to share whatever's in it, if you were after the contents and not the actual book. Mine is from the mid-80's.

I've been presented with the opportunity to get involved with our DePaul chapter. I really, really, really would love to, but not sure if I'll have the time commitment. Hmmm...

After taking an almost two-year hiatus from school (or at least from non-community college), I'm transferring to the University of Rhode Island and will hopefully be affiliating with the Beta Upsilon chapter there! (I was initiated into the Theta Zeta chapter at ERAU Prescott in Fall of '09)

I'm REALLY excited about it and I felt I had to share!

Oh heyy Theta Zeta! I'm Theta Omicron, ERAU DB

congratulations on URI!

Oh and lately I've been thinking a lot about how things change for the better- a year ago, I was pretty convinced I would be accepted to the Air Force Academy and was not even considering greek life. Thankfully, my lovely RA/now sister got me to come out to recruitment (lots of "Just come meet the girls in the different sororities. Just meet them. If you don't like it, then you at least tried. But you are going to try." type things haha) and now I can't begin to imagine my life without Alpha Xi Delta. My other school choice was UMD, and I don't think I would've gotten things together to go through recruitment there, but probably would've been interested in this new group that's starting up again...
