I'm alive!


I am so sorry for not updating this sooner, but I have been busy to say the least. Actually, the word "busy" has taken on an entire new meaning to me. So sometime in late August I met up with Gemma in the Denver airport and we headed to Manhattan. Yeah, for a second you thought I went to New York City. I didn't. Gemma and I landed in Manhattan KANSAS! Surprisingly, it was not as flat as I suspected.
My time in Kansas was spent helping to colonize a brand new chapter. A simple sentence for something that was unlike any experience I have ever had in my entire life. Beta Upsilon is now a reactivated link in Zeta Tau Alpha's chain of chapters! We have a gorgeous chapter of 160 women! Two weeks ago, we didn't have anything, now we have a blooming chapter that has a lifetime to continue to grow. I am amazed by how much hard work and heart was put into the colonization of this chapter. The best part: I can't wait to do it again!
I am currently at the Indiana University Perdue University Indianapolis, waiting to begin the colonization of a brand new chapter here! I am ssoooo excited to help bring this opportunity to women at this university. Helping in the start of a brand new chapter is unlike anything I could of imagined. The feeling you get when reflecting on Bid Day is remarkable.
So this is what I'm doing! Sorry I haven't been on facebook a lot, or updating twitter or my blog. I have really been throwing myself into colonization. It is really a period of time where every minute counts. You never know when the next VPII is going to walk by you, or when the extra five minute conversation can make or break a person's choice to participate in recruitment.

I also have flown to Pennsylvania for a day to help with an extension presentation. Other than that, it's been Kansas to Philly, to Indy!

I am tracking Georgia State Football- GO PANTHERS!! I am loving seeing everyone's pretty photos! I can not wait to come home and go to a game!! I am really pumped about this :)

I do miss everyone, and I think about yall all the time. I appreciate all the sweet texts and messages I get! THANK YOU!!!!!!



Lots of love your way!
