Day 12


Woo Leadership Conference! They lit the walls in the ballroom with pink lighting... yes, we had pink walls. We learned all about how to use all the fun technology that we pay for, how to better our chapters, and how to do our jobs. It was a good time, although very long. I also bought new quatrefoil dangle earrings. Lots of good time and memories :)

Day 11

Road Trip! Yay four and a half hour trip from Williamsburg to Bethesda for leadership conference. We listened to my High School Mix, Mix of Good Songs, and the Hot Sexy Momma Mix 2009. We as half of the Exec Board of Phi Mu had a great time riding up in my little CR-V to Bethesda to learn all about all things pink.

Day 10


Who loves a book, translated from depicted drawings on ancient Mayan society walls, to read and learn all about the Quiché tribe during the Colonialism of Mexico? I do, I do! Its actually quite interesting to learn about the creation of life and a book of advice of how these people should live. Most importantly, it illustrates the importance of environment within their tribe. Geekness is over.

Day 9


Woo my room is clean! At least for now. It won't stay this clean for long, trust me :) I would love to keep it clean, but unfortunately, life intervenes and I don't have time put everything back in its proper spot, but I will keep trying my best!

Day 8 (1/27/2009)

I started up organ lessons again this semester. Over the past three semesters, I have learned how to play the fundamentals of the organ, including the various stops which control which pipes are played, ad how to use the pedals to play additional parts. I am most excited about the piece I'm working on- its a big offertory piece that uses the flutes, violins, trumpet, and big organ pipe stops to make a huge sound- slightly "Phantom of the Opera" esque.... but in a major key!
