16 Reasons Why You Should Be At ThetaFest
Elizabeth Gentry

On November 3rd, 2017, Kappa Alpha Theta at Texas A&M will be holding their event ThetaFest, a $5 fajita dinner held at the Theta house that includes entertainment, music, and a silent auction. If you haven't bought your ticket already, here are 16 reasons why we should see you at ThetaFest:

1. Fajitas. Duh.

Just thinking about enjoying a dinner with 2 fajitas, rice and beans, queso, toppings, and a dessert makes you drool…

2. Live entertainment!

As you enjoy your fajitas, you can listen to great music by Wynn Williams and David’s Room! (plus who doesn’t love a good dance party?)

3. It’s $5

College kids can’t say no to a good deal (and avoiding SBISA food).

4. Your friends will want to be there!

Many other organizations, members of the community, family and friends come to our event. Think of all the people you can meet!

5. Think of all the Insta likes

College girls don't want to miss out on a cute, social photo op

6. There will be games

THIS is the chance to prove to your friends that you’re the ultimate champion of lawn games (or if you’re not…practice before the tailgates the next day).

7. Not a rumor: there’s a salsa competition

Not only can you eat salsa, but you can COMPETE for the best salsa recipe! (Or just eat salsa…that’s my plan).

8. There’s a chance to get great prizes

The auction baskets this year are awesome.

9. The food

Yes, this deserves to be mentioned twice.

10. Thetas will be there and working hard!

We like to call our philanthropies the heartbeat behind our chapter. You’ll see all your Theta friends working ThetaFest for the kids!

11. It’s a great way to procrastinate

Obviously, you should put off your homework to enjoy a Friday night and see all of your friends and Thetas at ThetaFest!

12. You get to hang out at the Theta House

We love our big blue house, and it’s even prettier on the night of ThetaFest! There are twinkly lights, lots of brand new friends, and gorgeous decorations (that our girls have made!!). Plus, you can sit on our porch swing!!!

13. It’s for a good cause

Our local philanthropy, Scotty's House, is a child advocacy center based out of Bryan, TX. Scotty's House provides a safe environment for kids who were abused to tell their story and receive medical attention and therapy. A portion of the proceeds will also go to Theta Foundation, a scholarship fund that exists separately from the fraternity, to provide support for educational, leadership, and philanthropic programs such as our national philanthropy Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA).

14. DESSERTS

Tiff’s Treats and Nothing Bundt cakes will be at our event! (These companies are worth cheating on your diet for)

15. $5 fajitas with all of your friends.

Just makin’ sure you remember.

16. We want you there!

ThetaFest has the ability to change lives and bring people closer together as a meal is shared. We hope to see you at our event to help us further change the lives of children across our area!

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.

It was the second time this year after an historic geomagnetic storm in May 2024. Those Northern Lights were visible in Europe and North America, just like this latest rendition.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
