It's Xingo Time
Sarah McFadden

Grab your calendars, planners, and phones and mark down November 17th…its time for Xingo! Alpha Xi Delta is hosting our 7th annual Xingo event from 7-9 PM in Sykes Ballrooms on Thursday, November 17th. For the past 7 years, the women of Alpha Xi Delta have been hosting a big game of bingo with our own twist. As the largest philanthropy event on West Chester's campus, Xingo is a great time for everyone involved. All the proceeds raised will go to Autism Speaks to aid in research for Autism. One in every 68 children is on the autism spectrum, and it is very common with very few answers as to why. Autism Speaks hopes to find out the unanswered questions of autism. Autism Speaks was founded in February of 2008 and is dedicated to funding research for causes and treatment for autism spectrum disorders. The women of Alpha Xi Delta are so passionate about Autism Speaks, and this is our favorite event to host. Last year Xingo raised over $4,000, and we want to do that again. Bring your friends, family, and more to play a few rounds of bingo and have a great time.

Not only do we have a wonderful time hosting and playing bingo with everyone, but we also have amazing prizes for all of you. This year we have a Microsoft surface tablet, GoPro with all the accessories, Bluetooth speakers, FitBit Charge, and so much more! There are raffle baskets filled with food, clothing, gift cards, and everything in between. Tickets are $3 presale and $5 at the door, but make sure to bring your extra change for raffle tickets because you don’t want to miss out on those awesome prizes. Presale tables will be in Sykes Monday through Wednesday from 12-2, so come stop by and grab your tickets early. Make sure to come with an empty stomach for all the yummy free food that will fill your plates. Food from all over West Chester will be waiting for you when you arrive. The women of Alpha Xi Delta look forward to this event all year and we cannot wait to spend it with you. The incredible amount of money that is raised for our philanthropy is what we do it for and the fun comes along with it! Make sure to join us for some bingo, food, prizes, and fun. We can’t wait to see everyone there!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
