Coming to a close.....

It's crunch time, or at least that's what I call it. The last few weeks of each semester always seem to slowly torture you. Turning in the last few projects and assignments for the semester is usually the most detrimental to your grade. The Christmas lights are currently being hung from the tree tops. I have heard there are over seventy-thousand lights all together. I feel like I could explode with excitement from it. This is always my favorite time of year, even if it does come with a lot of stress due to so much procrastination. Thanksgiving break is coming up and everyone is so giddy and excited about getting to see their family and loved ones over the holiday. The joy on everyone's face is priceless and could not be captured in a thousand words if someone tried. There is so much to do this week. I keep telling myself that nothing is impossible and I know that somehow and someway God WILL get me through it. This semester has seemed to just fly by and I can't believe it's already almost over. God has most certainly blessed me with some wonderful people in life. I never thought I would make lifetime relationships here, but I have. I am so lucky to be able to be in such a place as this. As far as club stuff goes, we have two new beaus in Zeta Pi Zeta. The process wasn't as complicated as I thought it would have been. It was very simple and quick. Also, our very first function is coming up next month, and it's a Christmas theme. I know next semester has a lot to look forward to including more involvement in the club and maybe even internships. Whatever is in store for me, I know I will do it with a smile on my face because He is always by my side to help me through the toughest and best of times. 

The Aftermath

Ze..Zeta Pi My....My oh My....Zeta Pi...Zeta Pi....WE ARE ZETA PI. These words will forever be a part of me. I found it ironic how I said I would totally go out for Kojies, but I wound up surprising myself in the end. I had checked my mailbox at the end of the day and found an invitation for a third round mixer, but f a different club. I found it strange that I had not participated in any open house or first round mixers for this club, and received an invitation. Then I realized, this was the club that was still in the works and had just been established. These girls that were made up as one are known as Zeta Pi Zeta. The girls in Zeta Pi Zeta have left a big impact on my heart, and I hold a special place for them. Our colors are scarlet, Teal, and Champagne. Some people may not fully appreciate the process of 'club week' but it is an experience I think everyone should share. Not only do you create life long friends, but you learn how to communicate better with one another. The first few days however can make you or break you. I was so sick. Not getting very much sleep and not eating right can certainly effect your body in more ways than one. I wound up having to miss some of the activities with the girls. The nurse gave me a prescription for sleep and told me to drink plenty of fluids. Even though the girls were disappointed that I couldn't spend as much time with them as I would have liked to, they still understood the need for me to get better. Hearing the roars of the crowd in the bleachers pounded in my head like a heart beat, only a thousand times louder. After getting sleep for the first time in three days, I felt like a little kid again. Over the week everything seemed to fall into place, like I knew it would. God handled everything just like I had faith that He would. Again, He was right there by my side when I needed him most.
