What Happened?

Just a few weeks ago I was living the dream and now I’m about to loose my scholarship, I’ve been kicked out Rho Sig, and my parents are thinking of making me take summer classes to make up for my F in calculus. This is my nightmare. And my teachers are telling me it’s too late in the semester to do anything to significantly bring up my grades. The whole situation is horrible. I guess I should have learned the information in my pledge book and taken to heart what the brothers were telling me about being annoying at parties and creeping out girls when I got so shmasted. I honestly thought fraternity life was about drinking and partying all the time but I guess it isn’t. It just sucks to loose all my good friends form my pledge class. I mean, I’ve learned to be a lot more social and should find some new bros soon but I was tight with them. Well what is done is done.
I’ve actually met one kid named Jason who’s a member of the ultimate Frisbee club team and the skydiving club. The two organizations sound awesome, I just wish I had heard of them earlier so that I didn’t waste my first semester sitting in my room doing diddlysquat. When I asked how he heard of the two Jason told me his siblings had both been members of the skydiving club and that in high school he was an avid ultimate Frisbee player. I guess you just have to know people to know what clubs are good to join and which aren’t. Wish they'd publicize them more. Over and Out

Screw 9 AM's

Ugh, waking up on Mondays has become the worst/hardest task of my week. I just want to sleep and recuperate and skip my stupid classes. Like today for example, I was up till 3 am last night working on a pointless History paper that I didn’t do last week cause Mr. Samuel Adams was calling my name Wednesday through Sunday and I could have gotten a much better sleep in my dorm than I did in my frigan 9 AM Biology Lecture. The guy doesn’t even take attendance there so I don’t know why I show up. I guess its cause I’ll get yelled at again by the brothers for not having a 2.7 GPA this semester, which they “demand” that you have in order to get initiated. I think that’s a load of crap though, they should be worrying about keeping up drinking with me rather than watching my grades. I mean, this weekend, I drank more than anyone else at the entire party and had to be carried… that’s right, carried back to my dorm. And that’s the third time that’s happened! Its always such an epic time. Over and out.

Greek Life


Just before Jack left and we finshed up our convo and he told me about his Fraternity. He was like “I’m trying to get into the fraternity Rho Sigma Pi, best parties on campus” And I was like “Parties, huh? Sounds like you’re living the college life.” And then Jack was saying, “I am, I am. You should look into pledging next semester. See ya!” So this new plan of mine like I said the other day, DUH! Gonna do this pledging stuff and have a great time with the fraternity and party and live the life baby!! I gotta to check out which one I want to do cause I heard on the street they got a bunch here at Clemson. This fraternity thing is my dream and im gonna do it real big. I shoulda known this a long time ago. Well maybe Clemson let me down until I heard about this stuff from Jack. Hopefully everything goes smoothly lol. Over and out.

Intro To Fraternity


Listen to this! Im walking down the hallway going to take a pee and I see this kid all dressed up looking nice and fresh. Im thinking why is Jack, who I met during the first weekend of school, looking all nice. So I strike up a convo with him and ask him why. He tells me he is a fraternity pledge. Blew my mind. He looks like he is gonna go out and have a fun night, and meet some people and girls. Im thinking to myself, what am I doing with my life, I gotta be a pledge or whatever and have some fun. I got some sweet clothes like him in my closet and I can pull off that look. But anyway, just as he is about to get on the elevator we finish up talking and I got a brand new plan! Over and out.

Downtown


All right well going downtown is fun, IF I WAS 21!!! I can’t get into any bars and only go to food places. I don’t want to spend money on food every night! Screw that! Downtown seems like sooo much fun but only for people that are old enough to drink and get into restaurants and bars to have fun. Pita Pit isn’t the coolest place to hang out, especially as a freshman when I should be meeting people. Well even though downtown seems like a blast, I can’t even chill down there without being old enough. There has to be something to do around here, I am getting mad bored. I just wanna have fun and enjoy college, UGH! I need some advice here please! And what is going on at other colleges is Clemson the only school that has nothing for freshman to do and have a good time?? Well I guess im just gonna chill at the dorm for the rest of the semester, o and maybe the library lol. Over and out.

Chess Club


WOW!!! I went to that lame Chess Club meeting and it was sooooo stupid. There were so many nerds that seemed like such losers. Clemson sucks so much. Why don’t they have anything fun to do??? I mean I would try some other clubs they offer me but that was not a good first impression on the organizations they got at this dumb college. Why do they advertise for the Chess Club anyway, why don’t they give me a free t-shirt for showing up or something lol. Am I the only one that is going through this at this school?? Seriously Ima transfer if I only got Chess Club to go to HA. But I could hit up downtown, heard they got some sweet places and bars down there. Mine as well give it a try and see what happens. Maybe I could meet some people or something good, cause I am not having fun right now! Over and out.

The Emails


After a lovely dinner at Harcombe Dining Hall, I went on my laptop and checked out my email to see if I got any new emails. For the first time I received an email that told me about a bunch of stuff going on this week and some clubs that were holding meetings and what not. I got two emails from like “Student Life” and “Inside Clemson” and realized there is a bunch of things I can do besides sports, which I suck at, and pretty much nothing lol. I guess Clemson does offer some sweet activities and have some cool organizations, but I don’t know which one I should have chose. They all seemed so dull but I guessed I could try a few and see what would happen.  I saw that there was a Chess Club meeting so why not try that lol, I’m not that bad at chess so why not. After deciding that I was gonna show up to the Chess Club meeting I was pretty pumped to see how it would turn out. Hopefully it would go well or I would be pissed and want to transfer for sure. Over and out.
