Date Party

SigEps first date party was night and I had a blast. We had a live dj and the setup could not have been better. I was able to meet (and dance) with a bunch of the new sorority girls, which was a plus. They all seem really cool for the most part. My date, a member of the Gamma Phi Beta sorority was a blast. People have started calling us perma-dates because we are just really good friends and I have taken her to the past few date parties and plan on going to more with her, as long as I dont get a girlfriend between now and October 25th. Anyways, date parties are always the best parties, if you are a girl, try to befriend a SigEp and get him to take you to Cowboys in October.

Beta Bash

Today a fellow fraternity was hosting a charity volleyball tournament. I enjoyed it very much as I have not played volleyball for a couple of months. I put together a team and we made it to the semi-finals in the competitive division. These guys we played were all out of college and probably in their late 20's. You could tell they play a lot of volleyball. Some of the teams were ridiculously good. I am just glad we made it pretty far and that I got to play.

Tonight SigEp is having our first date party. I will let you know tomorrow how it went.

Buzz Cut

I just recently changed my appearance drastically. I went from hair to my eyes and a full beard to a buzzed and beardless. Now this is the first time I have ever shaved my head and this has really been an attention getter. There has been countless people who havent recognized me at first. I walked into class today for the first time with the shave and literally everyone was just starring at me, wondering where all my hair had gone. No girl has said they dislike it yet, hopefully they arent just being nice. Well anyways, here are before and after pics.

Rain, Rain Go Away

So it has been raining non-stop for the past few days here and it is really starting to get annoying. I have a mowing business and the 10 inches of rain we are going to get by Sunday are really making it hard to mow. Streets downtown are flooded, my TRUCK almost got stuck when I was picking up someone last night. The forecast shows clear skies on Monday, so I am really looking forward to that. But I guess I really cant be complaining, I could have a hurricane in my backyard like Houston. I guess thats all, more tomorrow.

NFL Kickoff

Sunday, the best day of the week due to the NFL. I love sitting on my couch or going to Larry Buds and watching every game. My team is the Kansas City Chiefs and thought they had a chance to beat the Pats, although the result was a loss, it sets a promising season. Croyle should only be out for a bit and Huard is not a bad back up. I think the Chiefs make it to the playoffs in a wild card position and record of 10-6. Call me crazy but if they limit their stupid mistakes, they have a shot.

Let me know who your team is and will give you my respected opinion on them.

Athletics Outside of Intramurals

This year I have decided to play on the WSU club soccer team as well as join a baseball league with fellow SigEps. It will be tough to make the soccer team as they have already been practicing for quite some time. The starting roster is pretty much set and I know I lack the skills (and the knee) to start but I should be a good substitute for them. My tryout is next Tuesday. Both club and intramural sports are great ways to play the sports WSU does not offer. Soccer is spondored by the university and they pay for our trips but is not considered Division 1 like our other sports.

I excited yet nervous for the baseball league I am joining. I have not played in over three years and am used to SLOW pitch softball. Hopefully it wont take much to get back into the swing of things or else our team will be in some trouble. I think we are going to the batting cages soon to get a feel for how difficult it will be to hit a ball coming at us at 80+ mph vs an estimated 20 mph with a softball. I will keep you all posted on how the tryout goes as well as the baseball season. Later
