take me back tuesday: (flash)'s soristute days

remember how i promised some good ol' sorority pictures way back when?  well, today is the day i deliver, my friends.  they're not the greatest, but they're all i could get my hands on quickly and i was in a hurry.  unfortunately, i do have another job other than blogging and it seems to be consuming much of my time as of late.  nonetheless, i have found time for you, my love birds.  please allow me to introduce you all to (flash), circa her freshman year of college as a mere pledge of one of the biggest, baddest sororities on campus:

here are me and my girls freshman year at an 80s-themed chapter meeting.  just in case you can't find me, i'm the third from the left in the navy blue flash dance sweatshirt.  i really got in touch with my birth decade this chapter meeting.


here i am with one of my pledge class sisters and my big sis waiting for the party bus outside the phi delt house.  the phi delts had their annual toga party every december in the middle of the freakin' winter and it happened to be about 30 degrees on this particular night.  i don't remember being cold, though.  hmmm.  and please remind me why we thought it was okay to dress this way?  i'm fairly certain women wearing real togas wouldn't have had a toga anything like mine.  clearly, the movie 300 hadn't come out yet to educate me on spartan or greek attire.


last but not least is a photo from a "secs and execs" frat party.  (i.e. - secretaries and executives)  i happened to be "sober sister" at this party which meant it was my job to make sure i was there to help out any of my fellow sororistute sisters if they needed it.  i was such the good little volunteer girl.  plus, i had a soccer scrimmage the next morning and had to be up at the crack of dawn, so underage drinking was not an option.  the guy i'm with was a baseball player and boyfriend at the time; he and i are still good friends.

Your abs in the second picture are ridic! I'm seriously jealous!

Love this post...brings back memories from my sorostitute days :)

Salt said...

These are amazing. I wish I looked sober in any of my old sorority pics. I also wish my abs looked like that.

I was a sober sister for one party...that was the least fun party I went to in all my years of college. :)

Bathwater said...

Holy crap finally all my badgering for midriff has paid off! My new goal in life is to run for politics in Texas just so I can be lobbied by you.

btw I hope that guy was going through a dorky phase.

courtney said...

wow I am waaay impressed by your toga...mine never looked that cute.

Marian said...

Um...the toga is super hot...and even if they weren't sporting those back in the day...they should have been. The hair piece, on the other hand, is authentic:)

carrie1 said...

Holy midriff... you just made me want to go spend 5 hours at the gym!

But who am I kidding, that isn't go to happen... which is why I don't have the flat stomach!

jessalyn said...

ok. so i am not sure why you continue rubbing your extreme hotness in my face. i know i am a fatty at the moment and do not need the reminders.
also, sads my college did not have any sororities.
we should've partied together in college yo.
oh wait. i was like 110 when you were in college, huh?

The Only Girl said...

Okay so, let me make sure I've got this right - beautiful face, hot body and perfect teeth? Really really not fair. Now I'm depressed and will have to go eat more butter tarts to soothe my pain.
;)

Bathwater said...

Doesn't lobbying involve dinner, drinks?

Ams said...

Ummmmmm... can I please have your body!? PLEASE?
Love the pictures!!

SurferWife said...

ok, your body looks like an effing cardboard cut out. Unreal my friend. I think we have found your part of the trifecta crest. Your hot bod.

Can we still be friends even though I never pledged? I was too drunk and high to get through pledge week, really.

Cathy said...

You are so stinkin cute.

Brittany said...

Your stomach is ridiculous! I'm so jealous.

Kelly @ turned UP to ELEVEN! said...

SO cute - If I had your stomach, like, EVER I would have rocked a toga in the same way!!!!

Anonymous said...

When you have a bod like that, you always go with the half toga instead of the full toga.

Meg said...

If I'd had a body like that, I would have been wearing a toga like that too.

Awesome pics!

Lothiriel said...

Oh hon, if my stomach looked anything like that, I'd dressed the same way, even if it's December!!

Hannah said...

Love those pics! Cute!

Unknown said...

ditto to Lluvia---if my belly was that flat/concave, I'd have bared it all like the Polar Bears. OMG!
Such cute pics!

Unknown said...

Toga...what toga? Girl you're showin ALL skin :)- lol

Kiera said...

who youre flatter than a pancake (no not your boooobs). if youre still like this it will become an option for me to hate you.

why is the 80s so much fun to dress like?! wait- i know.

Macey said...

Geez, you're soooo pretty! Kinda makes me sick a little bit. :/

Lisa said...

Love the pics! Your a beautiful lady.
I'm trying to follow but might not be able to with bb. If not I will come back when I get online.

Oh girlie, don't you KNOW I was thinking of my BFF and all your food allergies when my little punkin' Ry got sick from eating the shrimps! I'm afraid to have him try them again, don't want him blowing up like you did!!

Oh P to the S: I hate you and your UNBELIEVABLY flat stomach. Just sayin'.

tara said...

even though i effing hate how skinny you are.. i gave you an award on my bloggy! :)

Natalie said...

Shut up. That toga picture is just not even fair. If my stomach looked like that, I think I would rock the half toga in every day life. At least a belly shirt. Not fair my friend, not fair at all.

Tricia said...

Everyone mentions the toga. BUT DID THEY NOT SEE THE SWEATSHIRT. Although, truth be told, it probably means nothing to most of them. I, however, have a matching one.

Desiree Lynn said...

can I just say how insanely jealous I am of your abs in the toga pic!!!! holy washboard abs batman!

Nikosmommy said...

Apparently playing soccer=abs of steel!!
I'll bet you could eat anything you wanted back in those days!! (maybe you still can...in which case I would kinda have to hate you!!) ;-)

SaraPlaysHouse.com said...

My BFF was a sorority girl. Can I just tell you? Sorority/Fraternity parties are WAY more fun than regular people parties. Word.

bananas. said...

seriously? SERIOUSLY?!

how you donna do me like that and make my abs look more like flabs with that picture, huh?

daayumn girl...i want that stomach.

ScoMan said...

You should have done 80s secs and execs night.. that would have been fun.

Plus it gives you a free night because it's two birds with one stone.

foxy said...

Dude. You are totally a skinny minny hottie. :)

Elizabeth Marie said...

WHAT WHAT WHAT...you freakin hottie. I didn't go to "normal" college so I missed out on all this stuff. All I had were a bunch of chicks and gay guys.

Meagan said...

Now I get it. This whole flashback nonsense has been so you could post that picture of yourself and make us feel fat. Let me guess, next week will be a picture of your amazing ass? Great. Should I order my brazil butt lift videos now? Just kidding! You should frame that though.

BonBon Rose Girls Kristin said...

Holy amazing abs batman!

Allyson said...

Sober...what?? Sober sister? What the hell is that?? We just chose who was least drunk. Sometimes that was 381-Taxi...but whatevs. I, like everyone else, am ridiculously jealous of your abs. Please, please, please tell me you own Photoshop. Otherwise, I will be forced to live on toast and Crystal Light until I look like that. Where did I go wrong? *le sigh*

I love a good sorority flashback. Maybe I shall break my own out one of these days. So many date parties, so little time...

Confessions of a Mother, Lawyer & Crazy Woman said...

I, too, have a sorostitute *(sp?) past. But I NEVER had abs like that. You go with your hot self! The secs and execs party is brilliant, wonder if my 30-something mom friends would be into it if I threw a party with the same theme?
