Abbey on the Road: NC State

On Wednesday I got a message that I would be leaving Friday for a recruitment visit to North Carolina State. I got to spend the last five days doing my second formal recruitment during my travels!

During my visit I had the chance to stay in the Zeta house complete with a house mom and the most amazing chef!!!

I got there at the end of Round One of recruitment, so my journey didn't really start until, Round Two, which was philanthropy round. As a consultant I had the opportunity to go around to other chapters and learn more about their philanthropies. Kappa Delta's involves working with Girl Scouts and had THIN MINT milkshakes as their beverage for the day. I had to capture the moment so I could reminisce about the goodness of that shake.

This recruitment was interesting because it was during school, so there was a break on Monday with no recruitment. This meant, I had a day to hang out and explore with the members without our schedules revolving around the day of recruitment. This was my one day to get a little bit of rest, but I had an interaction with the blue and red in the wee hours of the morning, because the alarm got set off.

Hilarious. He asked me the address of the house and a phone number that he could call. Did I have the answer to either of these questions? Nope. Was anyone else awake to answer my calls/texts? Nope. So I had to problem solve right then and there, thanks to my phone I was able to give him the information he needed.

I used this wake up call to my advantage and took a stroll up and down the hills of NC to find Lake Johnson Park.

I definitely didn't hate it.

Round Three was Skit Round. This chapter did "The Zeta Show" a parody of Nickelodeon's Amanda show! It brought back so many childhood memories. Loved it!
