a little change of scenery...

Normally I blog from my house, but our assignment was to try blogging from a different location...so I am currently blogging from a place that thrives on gossip. A place that lives and breathes gossip. If you know anything about me you may have already guessed where I'm at. Yes, I am at my sorority house.
Don't get me wrong, I love my sisters. But when you get 90 girls together, there's gonna be drama.
But as for right now, It's a pretty calm day at the house. Well, calm in my eyes. But probably not for the average Non-Greek. I'll fill you in on what's going on around me.
Two of my sisters are nearby on another couch having a heated conversation about one of our new members. Both of them want her as their "little sis" (every new member gets a big sis to lead you through your sorority experience). Another girl was doing a load of laundry but apparently someone had already called dibs on using the washer so those two are arguing about that. I was upstairs about 20 minutes ago and was ease dropping on a conversation about boys, of course! One of my sisters really likes this one frat boy, but get this...he likes one of my OTHER sisters, AND she's one of the new girls.
Oh man....that's just a taste of what has happened in the past 20 minutes...CAN YOU IMAGINE LIVING HERE? :)

SPJ club

The society of professional journalists (SPJ) is a club that is located on the campus of CSUF, as well as across the nation. Personally, I am not involved in it, but I thought it sounded like something people might be interested in, so I thought I'd blog about it. This club has meetings at 12 every other Wednesday in the TSU (Room Ontiveroes)...often with free food. :) Go and check them out if you are a journalism major or minor, or if you just want to learn more about journalism. They hold many events ever semester, including some that are great for networking. You get the opportunity to meet many people who have excelled in the industry. This would be great for resumes!

don't blame the host!

Work has been pretty rough lately so I thought I'd do a little venting. I'm a host at CPK and let's just say it's not the dream job. I went from being a server and making some serious bank to being laid off, and forced to accept a hosting job, because let's face it...with the economy as bad as it is, any job is better than none. I have to hear the servers complain about how they only have been making 150 in tips a night (cry me a river people...try making minimum wage), deal with managers yelling at me if I go out of rotation even one time, and of course deal with fussy customers. I swear if I hear one more person ask for a booth instead of a table I'm going to slap them. Of course lastly, I get the pleasure of cleaning the bathrooms every shift. And that my friends is just LOVELY. There's nothing I enjoy more than emptying out tampon boxes. YES, kill me now is right. So I would love some feedback, do any of you work in the restaurant business and have any ridiculous stories?

Kanye, how could you be so heartless?

At MTV'S video music award ceremony Taylor Swift was awarded the title of "Best Female Video" for her video of "You Belong With Me" (Love that song!). As she was graciously giving her acceptance speech, Kanye West jumped on stage, took the mic right out of her hand, and rudely voiced his opinion that Beyonce should have won the award for her video "Single Ladies." Poor Taylor didn't get to have the moment she deserved. Kanye went on to apologize to the teen sensation and was put on the spot when Jay Leno asked him how his dead mother would feel about his actions. So my question is...was it real or a publicity stunt?

Sorority Recruitment

So as I promised...part of this blogging site will be to let you know what is going on around campus. September the 18th through Tuesday the 22nd is sorority recruitment. Going Greek is a great choice and I highly recommend it to everyone. It is a great way to meet new friends, network, give back to your community thorough philanthropy, and of course to have a full social calendar. My sisters are like a family to me and without them, my life would not be the same. So girls come check out sorority recruitment. You can register online at www.fullerton.edu. We will also be having a booth on Titan Walk this week where you can get more information. And boys, fraternity rush just ended but be sure to check it out in the spring! Go Greeks go!

Tila had too much Tequila?

San Diego Charger's star Shawne Merriman was arrested late into the night on Sunday for suspicions of choking and restraining reality star, Tila Tequila.
He was taken into custody but released when it was revealed that he was just trying to get Tequila to stay at his home after a long night of drinking. He was concerned about her safety.
"I encouraged her to stay until safe transportation could be provided," states Merriman.
And after all this drama, what does Tila have to say? "I can drink."
Wow Tila...why don't you just go take another Myspace picture? I think your shot at love has ended...

Juicy Gossip :)

Hey there, I wanted to use this first post to introduce myself and tell you what my blog site is all about. My name is Gabby and I have to say my guilty pleasure is gossiping. Don't get me wrong, I'm not all drama queen, I can keep a secret when I need to. But I do enjoy a good piece of juicy gossip now and then...don't we all? In this site I will keep you posted on the lastest gossip, or as I like to call it, "goss" (I abbreviate EVERYTHING). Sometimes it might be what trouble celebrities are getting themselves into, other times I might keep you posted on events or situations going on at my school campus (CSUF). And I might even blog about the ups and downs that I or people I know are having in my own personal life. So sit back, and enjoy, cause with me you'll be filled in at all times :)
