battlers; in character.

This party lacks a good catchy name, due to Layth's disdain of cutesy themes. ALAS.

Anyway, it was pretty standard Alpha fare. There were games (beer pong, pool, poker, whatever game was on ESPN that night, etc...), food (wings, mostly. they may have ordered pizza with the money they saved on alcohol), and music blaring from the basement, where, as always, you can grind with people you barely know. Shrouded in darkness. I am not sure if the stripper pole made it through the attacks/renovations. :( There was beer, but no hard liquor, since Layth paid José to come and get people drunk. Yeah, I can do that.

You didn't have to be in costume, but you were thoroughly (but good-naturedly) harassed at the door if you weren't.

Soooooo, who came? What did they wear? ANd most importantly, what did they do to break in the new furniture??? Comment here, please!

WHO: Alphas & Amazons
WHAT: Beach party slash highly transparent attempt to get some action.
WHEN: Saturday night, July 9.
WHERE: The beach!

( Egyptian beach party! shake it loose on the Nile! )

WHO: Eeeeeeeverybody
WHAT: All-Society Block Party
WHEN: Saturday afternoon and into the night (Or Sunday? The weekend, whatever - RP time is weird)
WHERE: The stretch of campus known as Society Row

It was a beautiful, balmy weekend in Boston, perfect for a block party full of bikinis and BBQs. Not that any of these things are promised - it was up to each house to represent their society by opening their doors and their yards in whatever thematic manner they saw fit. Though this was an unofficial event, it was presented with the support of StuCo, a tongue-in-cheek laid back prelude to the formality of the upcoming Social.

If a rep from each society could post below with details on their respective chicanery, people are then welcome to comment with notes on character attendance, behavior, shameful displays, partial or total nudity, faux pas, and so forth.

SUBJECT: Society Block Party

To the Presidents of Our Noble Societies,

First of all, I'd like to offer congratulations to everyone for the events of the last couple weeks - I've heard some pretty impressive things about each of your adventures, as well as of strong performances from the members of your societies. Though we all faced certain hardships and missions did not unfold exactly as planned, it's important to focus on the fact that we all returned safe, sound, and most importantly, successful.

Furthermore, I personally feel that the Junior Missions left us with an unprecedented atmosphere of camaraderie amongst many students, after having worked together so diligently in inter-year, inter-society groups. Personally I would like to see this atmosphere cultivated, which is why I'm coming to you with a proposition: an all-society block party to be held this Saturday along Society Row, in which we celebrate our victories and pay tribute to our losses.

I hope that I can count on all of your participation in this initiative. I trust you'll all find the suggestion perfectly agreeable. The Student Counsel will be happy to pool our resources in whatever way necessary, but I have faith in your respective societies - and your talented Social Chairs - to make this an event to remember.

With Fond Regards,
Dembe Adrisi
President, Camulus Student Counsel
Representative of Uganda

Let's party.

But no, it greatly troubles me to hear that once again Amazon makes demands at the expense of others. Their belief that they are "in control" and/or the most important society on campus is unforgivably rude to the other organisations at Camulus. I know we all have friends in Amazon and while I respect the girls individually; I do not, however, respect the manner in which they have handled the debaucle. If Amazon wants to behave like they are spoiled children, they are welcome to. I refuse to reward it and I refuse to attend their party on grounds of how they have forced it to occur.

As such, I propose we host a party, before their party, making a new tradition of Psi and Sigma cooperation. We are both houses that continually move forward and live for innovation. Instead of adhering to tradition, we buck it, and we make our own. I cannot think of a better partnership. I will not be handling this, our social chair will, as well as our wonderful president, Alfred, but I will be involved; especially as my unique powers can be detrimental to the plans of Psi. I want to be sure if we do this, my presence will not affect the party as a whole.

Sigma, I am confident, can provide a laser show after sunset, as well as opening the planetarium (I will speak to Bruno about providing a soundtrack to it? Like a complete experience) and with our members, we can certainly design a combat field with electric discs instead of the usual beer pong (however, that will also be available). I firmly believe this would be an excellent idea. Maya and I are both in agreement and would like to speak more about this with all of you. Is it possible to set up a meeting for coffee either tomorrow or the next day?

Cheers,

hey sorry we got cut off last night. shit to hear about the amazons being amazons and ade being a complete tit. it's not really fair to you. look, though, sigma offered to host a party with psi; either on the night (i'd prefer that) or before the annual alpha/amazon one. i just want you to know what's up, but don't tell anyone. i'm fuming at how the amazons treated psi, alpha, and you, especially. the immortal words of mick jagger ring true, you can't always get what you want.

SUBJECT: ! URGENT: update.

all of you.

here's what's going to happen. psi force is no longer participating in the first joint-society party of the year with the alpha wolves. i will not allow my society to be passed around like we are unimportant or not a part of this decision. alpha and amazon, despite what some of your members may think, are not the only societies on campus. in fact, you are in the minority.

i instigated the situation. it is on my shoulders. therefore my house will be deciding who we plan our events with. elin is included in this email as a courtesy and because she is my friend. otherwise, as far as i'm concerned, amazon has nothing to do with this. it's between alpha and psi.

that being said: ade and chryso, we'll work on something once this blows over. we still want to plan something spectacular and bring our houses closer together--it's important. but we will not participate in such childish antics. ever.

dskjfkjslkjsd i am having a hard time breathing and at first i was mad at you because why didn't you tell me psi was stealing the amazon-alpha party??? like how great of a time are you and abe going to have bonding anyway??? and it sucks, freddie, because you KNOW how important being social chair is to me and even if this all works out everyone's going to remember I'M the amazon social chair who was so hated by, idk, alphas and psis that she ruined tradition!

message #2 and now viveka says i have to MAKE you tell psi to agree to the second party of the year b/c that's what ade said or something and i really don't want to be hated by psi or to have our relationship used against us OR to be homeless so now i'm crying and i would really like it if you could just tell me what to do because i'm really angry at myself for being walked on right now. i'm supposed to be the nice girl who is strong enough to not get walked on!

If you want to go down in history as the fucker who ruined tradition and severed ties with Amazon, tell me yourself instead if sending your pretty Grecian lamb to carry the message.

TO: Elin
FROM: The Queen

Fwd: I'm going to leave it up to Elin and Freddie. There are plenty of other things that are more important about traditions between the two houses besides just parties. If Freddie decides he's fine with us holding it off till the next one, I'm cool with that.

Don't disappoint your sisters, Elin.
