Well I’m here in Iowa chilling in Greg’s room, and since everyone is sleepy and I’m a natural insomniac because of Rose I figure I’ll update my site. A lot has happened in the past couple of days. Tuesday was bid night in the fraternity which was tons of fun. We had tons of really good freshman decide to rush pike which is super cool.
The night started with grabbing all the freshman and taking them out to Deming to chill on our fire trucks. Keacher was able to get both working which was freaking awesome. He is like a Mechanical/Electrical/Computer engineering god. So we drove em around campus a couple times, shouting our cheer. A couple of the Lambda Chi ‘s came out and mooned us… Ah, memories. After that we did the walk back to the House which was super fun, like 70 of us were walking the back trail. I got the chance to meet a lot of the new guys, and a few were pretty funny. I was really dumb when we got back to the house, they were doing like this thing for all of the pledges, and I didn’t want to go out and join them. I guess I felt embarrassed or ashamed, I’m not sure why but I just couldn’t get myself to go out there. Snyder pretty much dragged me out there, which I’m glad for. I should’ve gone out, but for some reason I just wanted to run away. It’ll prolly get better with time.
After some stuff, I can’t talk about for fear of someone reading this next year, we went outside and did the milk chug. I managed to chug the whole gallon. Well minus everything I threw up. That field is going to be rancid. Like 20 people threw up on it multiple times, very grossness. Afterwards we played some dodge ball, I wasn’t as light on my feet as usual. I think that milk was weighing me down. After that I got me some hamburgers and went and watched the cubbies game.
The cubs were doing awesome 3 – 0 , definitely doing well. Then the 8th in happened. I think the baseball gods, finally noticed that the cubs were playing for the pennant and decided to put a stop to it. So lets see there was an error, fan interference, and a bunch of other crappy shit that happened. So by the time the 9th inning rolled around the score was 3-8. Yeah life sucks, I got drunk. Atleast I wasn’t plastered, just mildly drunk. I was doing ok till I decided “hey, I should give doubles to Noah in 3 man” Let me just say never ever ever do that. He was right after me and told me “I was in for a world of hurt”, needless to say 6 doubles later I couldn’t tell the difference from my nose and my foot, by the end of his rampage. Fortunately I peaked fairly quickly and pretty much stopped drinking after that.
After I wandered out of the PC, Mike caught up with me, and man he was gone. But of course when Mikes gone he’s awesome. We ended up going around introducing ourselves to freshman, which was definitely very funny. Since we introduced our selves to each of em about 3 times a piece. I wasn’t doing so bad, I just got caught up in the moment. I definitely said something stupid in front of Spencer, I don’t remember exactly what but I shouldn’t have said it. I think it was the result of Mike introducing me as a Mass Ass. It had been a hard night, relating to that, and I think Mike blew away my last shield of will power for saying stupid stuff about it.
After all this, Me, Chris, Jake, Dinger, and Negel all went to Arbies. Where prolly he worst person ever was hanging out. “Uh… Good evening officer” Yeah, I basically stood completely still eyes on the ground and prayed. Thankfully he left without saying anything but damn I was freaking out. We got back, I ended up falling asleep in the PC, and walked back around 6:30 when the sun rose. It was a pretty fun bid day, and I successfully avoided making to much of an ass out of myself. Well That’s also the last time I plan on drinking more than 1 or 2 special beverages till after the associate period. Being in Pike is 10x more important to me that some drink, and its not like its that hard to give it up. The only exception I may make is after finals are over. Specially this quarter cause they are going to be very long and very painful. Well that’s all I got night everybody.
