Sorority Life. Roommate Edition.

I love living in my new home. You might think I’m lying to you. Living in a house with 50 some girls does sound a little ridiculous, but I actually like it. Although there are some things that you have to get used to.

The main thing I have been trying to get used to is the singing of my roommate Kristina. This is not intended to be a mean blog, she knows we make fun of her all the time. She also knows that this annoys us, but because I like to make fun of people including myself I felt like it was time to introduce the world to Kristina singing.

This is Kristina on the left in the other Pi Beta Phi shirt!

Kristina likes to sing songs, but not to herself, out loud… in our room… with her headphones, while the rest of us have nothing to wear on our ears. Last night I was trying to read for one of my classes. I had my headphones in, volume up to about 70% and could still hear Kristina, so I left the room and went down to our kitchen to study. My other roommate Rori told me that Kristina told her that she thinks I left the room because I don’t like Kristina’s sing.

In reality I love Kristina’s singing because it always makes me laugh. She just so happens to do in the most inappropriate times and I just happen to always be studying those inappropriate times. Needless to say I love living in my house. :)

There’s No Place Like Home

After waiting for what seemed like an eternity, I am finally back on campus! Being back on campus is a feeling that I can’t really describe, but is only something you have to come and see. Being a sophomore is such a weird feeling, and coming back on to campus this year was extremely different from last year.

Last year was full of crying goodbyes and awkward hellos. This year was full of see you laters that my friends and I realized aren’t that dramatic, and hellos that involved a lot of hugging, screaming, and smiles. My living situation is also very different! This year I am living in my sorority house at Pi Beta Phi. I love it so far. At my house we have cold dorms, which means that my bed is in a separate room from where our desks, closets, and TV is. I have two roommates Rori and Kristina. We are actually all pretty crazy so it works out.  Currently while writing this blog Rori is stuck in our couch, so if that gives you any idea of how anything our room is half the time.

Although I worked A LOT this summer at Forever 21, I had a lot of fun. One of my favorite moments of this summer was being able to go to the Dave Matthews Band concert! I was so grateful to get awesome seats from my second parents! It was such a blast, and also being able to visit some of Butler friends. Even though I love the summer time I am so excited to be back at Butler. There’s truly no place like home.
