update

hey!

So I apologize for not updating but even though a LOT has happened over the past month (incredible fall break road trip to delta sig chapters across the midwest, winning 1st place in mock rock for the 2nd year in a row!, exam hell week #2, etc.), not a lot has progressed in terms of my peace corps stuff (still working on dental clearance but almost there...final dental appointment is in one week!). Once I get some exciting news I PROMISE to let y'all know what's up. till then, ciao!

Fall Break - Fall break was AWESOME! probably one of the best fall breaks ever :) Me and four other brothers road tripped across the midwest visiting other delta sig chapters and it's an experience I recommend for all brothers. It really helped me better understand my brotherhood on a national level and how amazing we are. Visited Trannsylvania, Purdue (and watched the Purdue vs. Ohio State game...football is SO different in the north), Illinois - Urbana/Champaign, Millikin, Rose-Hulman and Kentucky over 4 days in a cramped SUV. I was very unsure how we would all get along as all our personalities are so different but we came out alive.

Mock Rock - I took the reigns again this year with the help of TJP III and we won Mock Rock for a second year in a row! Check out youtube for our amazing show (and you can also see our amazing show from last year). It was a LOT of hard work but totally worth it; I hated being the asshole but I guess that's what you have to be sometimes with this group. It's funny, although I think this show theoretically was WAY better than last year's show, technically, last year's show is still my favorite. oh well...hopefully or first place tradition will continue long after I graduate this December (no pressure Hollywood lol).
