Geaux Tigers!

Today we start our second round of recruitment at LSU. It is philanthropy day (we talk about CASA, which is the philanthropy we support). There is a great buzz in the house since they did well yesterday with Round 1. I am very excited for these women and it's been fun so far.

We do have some members who are getting more sick each day. I have a weird feeling in my throat but I'm feeling alright so far - hopefully Jennica and I can stay healthy so we can enjoy our "vacation" in New Orleans after this!

I did a five minute walk the other evening to a mailbox to mail a letter to headquarters. Within the five minute walk the envelope was soaked due to the humidity. I have never seen a place so humid. The windows steam up with the AC on in the house!

I have also had jumbalaya which is awesome and PoBoys (a sandwich with fried oysters etc.) it is also really good but not very healthy! I have also managed to mess up everyone's last names because they are Cajun, like: LeDoux or Herbert. Apparently a common name here is Waugelhaus or something. It is very different and the biggest culture shock so far. Some houses have their members wear full length gowns during recruitment which I have never seen before! It is fun and very eye-opening. Off to another day of recruitment!

Geaux Theta!
