The Final Countdown

Sorry I have not been blogging lately, things are starting to get a little hectic lately. As many Butler students know Spring Break is just 9 days away. Although it does not seem that way at all. As usual many of us are struggling with the craziness that comes with breaks, which typically means that professors are springing last minute assignments and trying to attack you before Spring Break.

As of right now I am making a daily list of everything that I need to do and crossing it off because having a planner isn’t enough. Even doing this I still feel like there are not enough hours in the day. On top of all the school that is going on this week is initiation week. By the end of this week I will be able to call 55 new members my sisters finally. Although it’s a exciting time it means more crafting must commence! I have been crafting like it’s my job lately, which I can’t tell you what I have been making because then my littles and my guardian angel would know! When I can I’ll try and show you pictures of everything I have made.

Even though all this crazy stuff is going on I’m just trying to stay positive! Here’s an artist that I got recently re- addicted to! I listened to him a lot when he first came out, but forgot about him until he came up on Pandora! Here is Matisyahu!

Officially a Pi Beta Phi

This past weekend was my initiation at my sorority! We initiated 43 new members including me. It was so interesting to finally see what we would go through. Although I cannot tell you what happened, because much of it is just for the sorority. I will tell you that I am blessed to be part of such an amazing group of girls!

Since I can’t tell you what happened in initiation I will tell you all the amazing things I received. During initiation week you get a Guardian Angel, which it’s another sister in the house who isn’t your big sister! They give you clues and you try to guess who it is. I failed at guessing who it was. Kim was my GA and gave me awesome gifts, but her best was the last gift she gave to me, which is the awesome canvas below!

My last gift from my guardian angel!

Not only did I receive gifts from my Guardian Angel, but I got more gifts from my big sister, Karissa. She got me so much stuff through out the week, and I’m so glad she’s my big! Going through initiation week is almost like one big party the whole week. You keep getting present after present and then in the end you get what you have been waiting for. On initiation day you get lavaliered, which is a necklace with your sorority letters, and you also get your pin, which for Pi Phi is an arrow spike. Getting these two things means a lot, and watching other girls getting them last week from the other sororities made me so anxious!

My lavalier! Pi Beta Phi!

I’m so glad that I am officially a sister and member of Pi Beta Phi. I’m also so happy for all the girls who have gone through initiation. There is still one more sorority left on campus that hasn’t done initiation, but everyone else has so it’s so exciting!
