Florida Gulf Coast University

So it's been quite a while since my last post, considering I have been at Florida Gulf Coast University for the past three or so weeks. I am in southern Florida, in Ft. Myers. For all my Tennessee friends up there in the cold, I am enjoying the 80 degree weather, and actually am a little sunburnt today! ;)

I have had such a great time getting to know these ladies in our Theta Nu chapter. I also LOVED getting to work with my consultant friend, Lindsey Wall! I hadn't seen her since training in July! So it was long overdue to catch up! Our chapter is doing so great here, and I hate to leave them tomorrow!

While I was here, I stayed with Lindsey at her apartment! It is a nice gated community, with a gym and a pool! It was so nice to be able to go to the gym every day, and also not to mention, I was like the only one in the gym too. It was like my own personal gym! The pool is so beautiful too, and it is in the shape of a quatrefoil. I only got to go there twice, but boy was it nice! Lindsey and I even got to squeeze in a beach day while I was here too. I feel like I'm in heaven!!

During my time here, our chapter had so many great things going on. We had a very fun Duck Calls and Overalls themed mixer with Sigma Chi, just in my element, right? Too bad I wasn't home to bring out my overalls for the event. We had a lot of fun events too such as bows and bracelets making, cupcake creation, and a Valentine's Day themed event.

I loved getting to know not only our women on campus, but also working with Greek Life. It was so great to be here for an extended time, and also to know when I tell these ladies bye that I will see them again later this semester. I will be traveling in and out a lot this semester, and I miss everyone here already! I'm off to Baltimore tomorrow morning to visit the University of Maryland-Baltimore County for recruitment. Can't wait, but I am a little nervous about how my body is going to handle the transition from 83 degrees to 33 degrees tomorrow! That's all for now y'all!


Lindsey and I at the campus sign! Had to get my campus picture! Aren't the palm trees breathtaking? Betcha didn't know there are hundreds of different types of palm trees. Learned that during my stay! Love Florida!!
