Yay…

On April 20, 2001, 4 young women crossed the burning sands into Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. via THE ELITE Theta Epsilon Chapter at Univ. of Southern California.

Collectively, they are known as Ari, “the will to succeed.”

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 7 years…I love you guys…we’re officially Old School!

No Skaters Allowed! Pledge!

It was great to spend time with folks last night at Grand Lux Cafe…even though there were some folks that were greatly missed.

I hope that we can all get together soon. *sigh*

We trekked out early this morning to hit Mt. High, but not early enough. By the time we got there, they were turning folks around from the mountain because it was already packed. So Incog pulled a U-Turn from the long line of cars in front and behind us, and we parked on the side of the road like many other families to play in the snow instead.

That was good enough for us…

Christal wanted to make a snow poodle… *giggle*

I couldn’t resist.

I mean dang…our colors ARE royal blue and gold.

Snow Poodle Before…

Snow Poodle After…

Relax. It’s just orange juice. *cheese*

Incog thought it would be funny to hit us with a snowball while we were taking a picture. Christal thought it was funny too. But maybe that was because they didn’t have snow up their nose or in their mouth. Cold.Blooded.

Boys will always be boys…*sigh*

We reserved time for normalcy….

And then got back to the craziness…

All in all…it was cool being out in the snow and being able to have a little fun…

The rest of the photos are here.

Now…let me see what else I can get into before Saturday is over…. *cheese*

x0x0x0x0x0

wasn’t sooo bad after all. It was “aight”. If you’re bored and you need something to do…go see it.

Yesterday was the founding day of my sorority, Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. So…I thought I’d put together some take back photos that i’ve saved since April 20th, 2001.

♥ EEEE-YIP MY SORORS! ♥

Hope everyone had a good weekend…

Decisions Decisions…..

As you can tell it’s breakfast time over here in my office…..and once again Decision time in my life…Being that i’ve already made the LIVING decision, it’s about time i made some decision that affect another important aspect of my life. Now, i’m bein discreet :shhh: because i dun know WHO reads this…lol….but Courtney needs to make some moves. :thumbsup:

I guess the next small decision that I’ve made is to wait until after we get back from Costa Rica, to make that one big decision. I’ve also contemplated waiting until August to decide if it will be worth it to stay….but like Brandy, I’m stuck wondering “Should I Go”. I guess we’ll have to wait and see….

Today marks for the 4th year Anniversary of me and my sands in Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. I feel old. Even though things are different now, and a lot of changes have been made. I’m glad that I had the opportunity to meet some very sophisticated women.

Bally’s was cool last night…but i realized one thing with the Hollywood gym….they think that everyone has Hollywood money….you really think i WANT to pay to park when i’m already paying $35.00 for membership each month….:wtf: . I REALLY dont…..i mean, if you were to ask. I guess it’s because it’s surrounded by other Hollywood Venues and it’s on the corner of Hollywood Blvd and El Centro. But in my defense, i didnt ASK for them to choose that location…..hmpgh. Anyhow, these are the bikes that i fight over everytime I go to the Hollywood gym. I was able to walk around the top last night for my cool down to see all of the other things it has to offer…When they took me on my membership tour, it was kinda quick. More like, “You seen what we got, now sign up and gimme your money”. So this time, i kinda cruised around. One thing I am thankful for is the lack of Hollywood attitudes….folks dont lose their minds because they’re all there to either lose weight, gain weight or maintain the weight they have. Keeps some folks in check. :thumbsup:

Anyhow, when i got home, i watched the Amazing Race…and MAN oh man……if i was that black lady…i would NOT have CUT OFF MY HAIR FOR NOBODY! Promise! I mean, if it was the LAST leg of the race and I had to do it to be FIRST for the million dollars….then HEY! I’d consider it real hard and then go buy myself some new hair with the winnings….but uhhh…it WASNT the last leg of the race….so we woulda had to go back and do the other Task. lol Joyce had to cut off her hair in order to complete the task for the Fast Forward to the finish line of that leg of the race. She had her hair in braids, and for ME…..when my hair is in braids…it grows really fast because there’s no fingers in it, and it’s left alone to do what it do…..so she must have had some type of length….and to cut it all off? Come on now…..I woulda been hot…But she sucked it up. :thumbsup: And Uchenna showed her so much love…..:heart: YAY for Black Love! But booo on having to cut off all of your hair to win a leg of the race. :thumbsdown:

And Sidenote…PS…whatever you wanna call it:
I dun know what Forever21.com is thinking, but THIS is NOT the way to go…I have now gone from being a once a week online forever21.com shopper to a once in three weeks…..and COUNTING.

Welp…let me get back to handlin biz….I hope you guys all have a good Hump Day…Kevin Hill comes on tonight…WOO HOO!
