Our chapter had to set it up and all this year as that's how we chose to have it, rather than pay someone else to set it up and all. My date and I start off by cutting and peeling carrots, and then the girl from the sister service sorority who was helping...remembered we needed the alcohol so since I was the only one with ID, she asked me to go with someone else to buy the alcohol. So, I did...Hence the start of the last email(I'm fine now I think). The banquet ended up starting an hour late because of a few factors. Ok, one of the things that bugged me about this banquet was that my date, I, and this other brother that like nobody ever sees anymore was at my table. Yeah I got to talk to this guy, which was like way cool but like my date kept mingling to other tables. I convinced myself...We're just going as friends and no matter how we were, I'd want to mingle myself as well, and we weren't going out or anything. Anyhow, after mingling and eating/picking at my dinner, they started the awards. I gave out the award for sticking your foot in your mouth...which I'm notorious for, if you haven't noticed. Surprisingly, I didn't do it this time...I usually end up stumbling over my words when I give awards out and stuff...Like last year I had a date to the banquet and I couldn't find what words I wanted to say about the award. But this year it went great :) Then, the dancing started. We were dancing and after a while...a slow dance came and I asked her to dance...then a 2nd one in a little bit and she said yes to both...WOW! I was shocked! But like I just didn't feel right dancing with her even though I was telling my inner self "Shut up! Be glad you have someone!" Like halfway through the dance I was thinking about it and how I really wanted to dance with someone more attractive physically, and telling my conscious to shut up about ignoring physical beauty and all...and I saw this girl Alison(the girl who lives at the apartment with me and the 4 other guys) dancing with her date Chris(Alison is a past sweetheart so she's invited to the banquet and can invite anyone she wants too)...and having a WAY good time! Yes, those of you who are psychic(or just like on top of things) have already guessed "Seth is jealous!" Ok, That wasn't the first time. If you've been IMing or ICQing with me the past few weeks you've known I've been having major hormone attacks. Alison has been appealing to me(to put it mildly). Even when she says things mean to me, to put it bluntly(because there's few other better ways to put it), I still want her despite them! And the one night she came up to my room and asked me to turn my music down and I actually like a minute after she left said "Speak to me fine angel!". I broke and was saying about this on IRC to the brothers from across the country and my friend(brother in my chapter) Steve says "Who is it?" and I told him...and he says "Oh..Alison doesn't date Friends" and I'm like thinking(I won't tell him cuz it's mean) "She's just saying that to be nice Steve!". But like Alison's not really my type either. She gives a crap about Drexel's student life(not that I don't...but it's her life!) and is sarcastic and I can't stand that. But like I kept staring/looking at her and other girls who were/are/whatever attractive, and getting even more depressed. I felt like the emotional battle that happened before WW1 with the networking and stuff. I was pushing back anger at myself for not asking someone more physically attractive(when they may not have said "yes"), at Alison/fate sorta for having fun when I wasn't there, at like everyone else for that too sorta. I tried unsuccessfully to force myself to be happy that I had a date, and all that other lying crap. Then, I broke and went in the kitchen where nobody was there...and got a wine cooler and drank it. I was happy because I wanted to be alone, but then Alison came back with her date and said "You know if you put that in a glass you can take it out to the dancefloor"(because no alcohol was allowed to leave the kitchen). I ignored her and was just waiting for her to say something else cuz I would have told her off. Then, when I finished the bottle in like 4 or 5 mins(whatever a slow song goes for), I went out and actually didn't feel tired. I found it was easier to look to Alison and copy her happy emotion and force myself to appear happy and hopefully then it would rub off on my inner self. Plus, there's this girl/brother Colleen that is from a nearby school/chapter Villanova University. When I met her, I seriously got the worst impression because within 30 seconds of seeing her, she said to this other brother in my chapter "This girl here and I are fighting to ask you out"...and after that it was like she was just all over him. I really dislike her and I always view her as having an attitude or just being snobby or something...but like tonight she says "Hi Seth, How are you?" and I just said "Fine" and walked off. I felt guilty right away but I can't stand her! I don't know if it's that I think she's hot(cuz I do!) and don't want to admit it or if her personality just clashes with mine. Until tonight I had been pretty successful at evading events that she would be at. But anyhow, my date's leaving tomorrow for home and she wants to tour the art museum(cuz it's free before a certain time). I sorta want to view it too because I love looking at art, and it's with a girl(but that's like a really bad reason it seems)...but then I have some homework/project(s) due tomorrow and Tuesday so I shouldn't..Part of me wants her to go, but part of me also just goes by what Nike suggests "Just Do It!"...I dunno. Anyhow, that was my lamo weekend. I finished 1 more wine cooler at my apartment here before I started part 1 and there are 3 more...which I might consume tomorrow or Monday. I sorta have the volition to drink the 3 tonight because I want to forget things and not worry about anything, but then sleep has a similar effect too. Nevertheless, take cares and Have a Great Night :o) P.S. Sorry if I offended anyone :( ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 16 May 1999 00:58:02 PDT From: "ws r" Subject: ET:Novice in need Hey there Well, it's been awhile since I've wrote anything to the list...humble appologies. I was thinking about doing the survey thingie, but I chickened out, I mean, I don't think you guys do want to know what's under my bed anyway. O.k, o.k, I'm getting to the point of this e-mail now, I'm a novice guitar player (Stress on novice) but I've finally found someone to help me, and now I'm looking for something to play...So, if anyone has any tabs for something good (I'm really looking for some Counting Crows stuff, Tracy Bonam maybe too.) or where to go for some. That would be really appreciated...any tips would be great to, but remember, your speaking to a novice. Anyway, enough said for now. Thanks for listening, Sue aka Enna, aka the stone angel "...If you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." -Friedrich Nietzsche Beyond good and evil ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 16 May 1999 02:57:57 -0400 (EDT) From: Seth Fulmer Subject: ET: This weekend(part 1) Okay guys :) (Before you read this, please note that I'm doing this under a lil' bit of flavored Ethanol)...As you may or may not know, I'm a brother of a coed service fraternity, but my chapter at Drexel's all male(at our chapter...and a few others, we only admit males). Tonight, we had our 51st banquet and we do have an alcohol room in the back that you need ID to get into. Well, anyhow...I usually try not to drink much because I get tired and stuff, but drinking does help me as in it fogs my mind enough that I don't care that such and such a girl is having a good time and not with me. So, like tonight I had a date and all to the banquet. Ok, she's not Aphrodite, but she is weird and nice...just like I like'em hehe (*j/k* a little bit). I asked her to the banquet like 2-3 weeks ago and she said "yes"...So, I was like "cool beans!" and my friend Steve, who after like almost a year of being single and whining to everyone about it has a girlfriend, keeps telling me there's something between this girl that I'm taking and me. I keep telling him to dream on. Well, like ok...anyhow...she came into Philly on the train on Thursday night(or Friday morning however way you want to put it) at 12:30AM. I said it wasn't too late for me(Ok, so I sorta lied)...well, she called at like 10:45 and said that it was gonna be 45 mins late...so I said "cool" again and went to the train station to meet her at 1:15. I saw the time said it was 40 mins late so I was cool with it..and then suddenly I see the thing change to "Delayed". So, I asked the guy at the information booth "Do you happen to know how much it's delayed?" and he said simply "yes"...I wasn't in the mood..I asked him though "Well, how much?" and he said it would be arriving at 2:20AM in the morning. I said "Ok," and went to lay down on the bench. I then said to myself(and pardon my sorta language) "She must be an F*ing Aphrodite"(cuz at the time I didn't exactly remember what she looked like..I had seen her in bad light and other reasons too). Then It struck me...I said the same thing about Holly(it took me a little while to remember that I said it about Holly but anyhow that was the outcome)!! And Holly isn't like hot if you look ONLY at her physical beauty...but she's like the most beautiful creature if you look at her whole. Ok, so like I waited and she came at 2:20(or something) AM in the morning and then we walked back to my apartment(I live there with 4 brothers and 1 other girl). I pretended to give a care...cuz like I was playing the role of that I invited her as a friend(and not like a boyfriend/girlfriend or even prospective thereof). But like I couldn't get my mind to stop thinking the going out thing, and then I was grossed out by the thought of her physical appearance. The next morning I had a midterm exam(a big test in the middle/semi-middle of the term of school) at 10AM, so I was up at 8AM and got ready and left after leaving her a note. I basically said I would be back after my 2 classes and be back around 12:30PM...which indeed I was. Then, we went to the mall. Stupid me got us on the wrong train, trying to get a free ride taking advantage of one of the shortfalls of the when the train system collects tickets, and ended up paying $10 and taking 1 hour to go to a place that normally could have cost at most $4 or $5 and 15 minutes. But it got us some good talking time. Then later, we were going to go to a service project to feed the homeless at a church like my chapter does every Friday evening. Afterwards we were going to see "A Mid Summer Night's Dream", but like the only guy with a car went out to pick up someone that lived 1.5 hrs and then back...He ended up arriving at the apartment right at the time the movie would have started and with traffic yet, we were a half hour late for the movie. So we surfed the town looking for a later movie but there were none. Finally we ended up going to McDonalds and going to Drexel's movie night to see "Shakespeare in Love" at the midnight showing. I fell asleep...DOH! What I saw I adored! I want to see it again to get the full effect. This morning though, I wake up and because it's such a big day I clean up the basement cuz it's my part of the apartment to clean. Then, I check my email, and work on this math project due in 2 weeks but my stupid partner wants me to finish my part by Monday...when I have a homework assignment due Monday and another project due Tuesday afternoon. I am asked if I wanted to order out for Lunch..which I do but I don't have quite enough cash, so even though I know that I'm doing it, but she doesn't...I sorta cheated the girl(my date to the banquet) out of/borrowed $1 or 2(borrowed cuz I'll give it back). While we ate, we're all watching "Species" on TV. She's doing a cross-stitch as me and this other guy are drooling over Natasha Henstridge(sp?). I was able to not care because I convinced myself it was just as friends. Then, later I asked her like a half hour ahead of the time I wanted to leave if that time would be a bad time to leave(too early or what)...She said it was cool. Ok...please don't reply until you read the other part(s). I'm gonna split this up so you don't all have a HUGE email here :) -Seth ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 16 May 1999 09:15:57 PDT From: "Chris Sylvester" Subject: ET: Floyd fan looking for copy of "The Wall"movie do any angels out there know where i can get a copy of the movie version of the wall?

It's SO hilarious!!!! Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit From: "Everything Breaks" The Mother of All Quizzes! It's really scary how this works out. NO CHEATING!!!! First, get a pen and paper. Second, write the numbers one through six. Next to number one, write any number... Next to number two, write the name of anyone to which you are really attracted... Next to three, write down the first color you can think of... Next to number four, write the name of your first pet.... Next to number five write down the name of a family member... Next to number six write down the name of another family member... Remember...no cheating.... Keep scrolling down.... Don't cheat, or you'll be upset.... Here are the answers.... The number next to number one shows how many times you should be smashed over the head with a baseball bat for thinking that stupid e-mails like this actually mean anything.... The person named next to number two is someone who will never sleep with you because you're stupid enough to waste your time on something like this.... The color you picked means nothing. It's a friggin' color for Christ-sake.... Number four gives you the name of a dead animal.... Numbers five and six represent family members who are embarrassed to be related to you..... Pass this on to everyone you know, so they can feel like a schmuck too.
