The Rush Of Prepping For Sorority Recruitment, As Told By Elle Woods
scontent-iad3-1.cdninstagram.com

August and September are typically the busiest months for college women in Greek life. It almost seems like every little decision or consideration comes back to the fact that soon we'll be welcoming new sisters. I know Elle Woods would be able to pull together an amazing recruitment, so let's turn to her to see what the month leading up to new sisters is like!

1. Planning decorations and themes

Giphy

She's not afraid of failing. Delta Nu would have the best themes!

2. Choosing a lipstick to match your recruitment dress

Giphy

Pink lipstick all the way. For any dress.

3. Needing to get away from the craziness after a long day with your sisters

Giphy

For Elle, it's chocolates. For me, it'd be pizza.

4. "Are you stressed and overwhelmed?"

Giphy

Luckily, you have other people to dump your stress on.

5. Getting sassy when picking out your recruitment dress

Giphy

Nope, not taking it.

6. Listening to other's past recruitment horror stories

Giphy

It's always good to make sure the awkward doesn't happen again.

7. When people finally get the hang of "bumping"

Giphy

For those who don't know, "bumping" is a term for transitioning between two sisters when talking to a PNM. Woohoo!

8. Practicing house tours

Giphy

If only we were all so confident.

9. The important pep talks over spirit week

Giphy

Faith in yourself = confidence transferred to your new sisters!

Happy recruitment prep-month, everyone!

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.
