RUSH

I helped Kaitlyn move into the dorm this morning for Rush/Recruitment. Her room mate had not shown up by 11:30 and Kaitlyn was getting antsy. Kristen moved into the dorm on Tuesday. She is a Recruitment Guide (Rho Gamma) during RUSH. I'm going to try to not text or call and let Kaitlyn do the calling. It'll be hard not knowing what's going on. AGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!! Everything will be decided by 2:00 on Tuesday when they get their bids. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that there won't be TOO much drama. Kaitlyn is the queen of drama.....

How I Got to Oklahoma from South Carolina

In honor of tomorrow's anniversary of how I got to Oklahoma via a Caribbean cruise, here are some pictures from 28 years ago. I went on a cruise with 3 other women. I did not know these women until about 3 mos before I left to go on the cruise. They are Judy - age 34 (from Charlotte, NC), Hazel - age 34 from Columbia, SC, ME with the frizzy perm - age 26 from Columbia, SC, and Linda - age 53 from Columbia, SC.

At the captain's cocktail reception.

At the celebrity look-alike contest which I won! Can you tell who I am? The music the orchestra played when I walked across the stage was "Here You Come Again."

The formal dinner.
Our table at the formal dinner.
The cruise ship was taken out of commission a couple of years after I went on it. It was the smallest one in the Carnival line at the time and was very old. I have not seen or heard from these women since I moved to Oklahoma. But we had a lot of fun the week we spent together and I'll always remember it.

Wayback Wednesday

This used to be the tag on my car when the girls were skating. Part of the proceeds from purchasing the tag went to the Olympic Committee to support U.S. Olympic athletes and their training.

One more heinous hairdo

The dreaded "GLAMOUR SHOT".... from 1991

Heinous Hairdos

My life through "heinous" hairdos. This is my 1st grade picture (1960-61). Notice the bangs that aren't quite even and the slept-on hair kink on the side. AND, I have on my "I gave to the Red Cross" pin!!! I really don't have anything on my mouth, this is an old picture stained from the years.

My 6th grade picture. I was a cheerleader and wanted to look perfect. Notice I still have the bangs! But not a hair is out of place!!!

Working girl in 1974. Back when neck scarves were in.

1977 - Hippie Days (not really). This was my idea of a Farrah haircut.


And a longer version of the grown out Farrah haircut.


A shorter version of the Farrah haircut (with wings).
A grown out version of haircolor on the ends.

Working Girl II. Notice the big glasses (ewwwww).
This was in my really skinny days. (circa 1980 - 26 years old)

Working Girl III going away party before moving to Oklahoma

The frizzy perm look of the 80's.


The flipped out look.



My look pretty much now all the time.
