Broomball with our brothers
On Friday, we played broomball with our brothers at the Alpha chapter of Apha Gamma Omega (at UCLA). We ate some cookies and played our darnedest! It was encouraging to know that God's love is being spread to other students in LA through their house. We're also having an exchange with our own Alpha chapter (also at UCLA) later this semester. But don't worry, we're not going all soft - we went back to being suspicious of anything UCLA-related on Saturday :)

late night pancakes for dance marathon!
Dance Marathon is a philanthropy at USC that raises money for the Los Angeles Children's Hospital. ADX is forming a team for the second time this year - and we're so excited! To raise money for our team, we had a pancake breakfast at Alpha Gamma Omega (our brother fraternity) last Wednesday. At $5 per person for unlimited deliciousness, we raised $486.51! (yeah I don't really understand how that was not a multiple of $5 but whatever, we'll take it) And the best part, we had an awesome time doing it!
Here, Danielle enjoys here waffles...

God has blessed us with awesome opportunities to get involved on our campus, and we are blessed to have support (like all the people who came for waffles!). Songfest practice continues as well. If you would like to donate to our Dance Marathon team, please email adx@usc.edu

a weekend away
This post is a little late... but a few weeks ago, the sisters of Alpha Delta Chi went to Newport Beach for the weekend, for our Devotional Retreat. We were fabulously hosted by Christine's family there, and had a chance to get away from school and focus on God! We were led by our Devotional Chair, Jenna, and had a great time!
Jenna (foreground) is our fearless leader, as Ashlee (with the guitar) leads worship. And whities Lindy and Danielle stay in the shade so they don't get sunburned
And I'm not entirely sure what's going on in this one, but Janeen's having a lot of fun I think (maybe Jennie under the blanket?)
And just a reminder - you can check out tons more pictures on our Picasa account by following the link on the top right (under the "Links" section)

an ADX Murder Mystery!
Last weekend, the sisters of ADX came together to solve a MURDER! And bond, eat delicious food, and have a few of them dress up. The event was put together by the lovely Theresa, for the big sis-little sis bonding event.
Here is Theresa (left) reading the script as (l to r) Loni, Noelle, and Diana play their parts...
The Family (yes that's their name) think very hard about the evidence while enjoying dessert. clockwise from bottom right: Kari, Nicole, whosits and whatsits galore (her mom calls her Megan), and Heather:

Welcome the Etas!
On Monday, we welcomed our ETA pledge class! Here they are looking gorgeous
We are currently (as in, once I post this I'm going downstairs) practicing for SONGFEST 2009! This is an awesome opportunity for us to partner with Theta Xi fraternity and compete in a musical revue-type show to raise money for Troy Camp. We'll give you more updates later.
God Bless!

Spring Rush
Well, the sisters of ADX have been in the throes of rush this week! Theme: "The World is Not Enough"
Monday, we had an informational barbecue. On Tuesday, we ate pinkberry (delicious frozen yogurt for those of you not familiar). Wednesday we had a bible study on our rush verse 1 Timothy 6:7 ("For we brought nothing into this world and we can take nothing out of it"). Last night (Thursday), we had our own spy game around the USC campus. Tonight the active body is meeting to discuss rush as well as give out bids for our Eta pledge class! Please pray for guidance as we choose this pledge class. We are so thankful for all the women that God has sent our way! He does it every rush, so we probably shouldn't be surprised... but we are still thankful!
Here's a picture of the actives in their "Pretty in Pink" shirts, which raise money for Susan G. Komen foundation. If you want one, you can check them out here. The design is actually different, but I can't find the correct one... I'll post the correct ones when I find them. For now, you can see how good we look!

a new semester!
Today's the first day of USC's Spring 2009 Semester! Our spring rush begins in one week, where we will be getting members for our ETA pledge class!
God has blessed us with incredible sisters - we went from 6 Alphas to now over 40 members! The bigger size has brought challenges, but none that God can't guide us through to make us stronger and more effectual on our campus.
Soon, we'll update the Google calendar with our events for this semester, and we'll be posting more pictures. But here's an oldie (but a goodie!): our Beta Bombshells class (sans 'Stan') on their way to AGO (our brother frat) Mocktails party before winter break. Enjoy!
