So this Saturday is my Sorority’s Founder’s Day. There is a huge party celebrating the event at a nightclub in Philly. I am one of the hosts of this affair and have to get dressed up and *gasp* hang out in the club.
Now believe me, I have a secret clubhead past. You must remember, I grew up in the 80′s and 90′s when we saw the emergence of hip hop, house music and reggae hitting the mainstream in New York City. I have been hanging out in clubs since I was 17. I love music and I love dancing. You know….the throw on a pair of Girbaud shorts, a white tank top and dance on a speaker till your clothes are wet and your hair is jacked up kinda dancing. There isn’t a club in NYC that I didn’t go to in my day.
However, at this stage in my life, a night at a club is about as appealing as a bikini wax. The thought of getting dressed up and standing around looking cute for hours in heels until 2am? YAWN. I would so much rather be in my pj’s lounging on my couch watching a movie.
I will be a good sport though. All of my younger sorors are all hyped up for the party. I am off to find a dress (in my closet) and some shoes (at the store….I can always use a new shoe!). I’ll probably be asleep on my couch all day Sunday paying for it.
What do you have on deck for the weekend?
You have fun in da club! Show those younguns how it’s done! I’ll be home! I don’t know what we’ll do this weekend. We just kinda wake up and play it by ear. Have fun!
I’m getting together with a group of sorors for a Founder’s Day dinner. The dress code is pink and green with your best grown and sexy heels. Have fun at the party and represent for us not a youngster but not quite seasoned sorors!
Happy Founder’s Day Soror Leslie! Our theme is “Got Pearls?” However, I am wearing no pearls that night. They clash with my ensemble. LOL
Oh and in our chapter, we call our under 25/Silver years group “The Princesses”. LOL
Dancing on a speaker? Lol. Sounds like you were living it up. lol. This weekend? Just hanging out. Movies, bowling and the playoffs.
Maybe movies tonight and some people have plans to whisk me up into some mountains to drink fall down go boom.
LOL! I can’t WAIT to see this outfit! I can’t believe my clubbing days are mostly behind me. I didn’t count it a good night if I didn’t majorly sweat. A true workout! CIAA weekend might be my last hurrah! When did I get this old? …
This weekend I will finish homework and braid a friends hair.
Happy Founder’s Day Soror! Have fun at the party!
On Saturday I’m having brunch with my line sisters then joining a group of local sorors to lay flowers on the grave of one of our founders, Soror Marie Woolfolk Taylor (in Atlanta). The rest of the weekend is all about studying.
Wishing you a very Happy Founders’ Day Soror!
Sounds like you have a night ahead of you.
Happy Founder’s Day!!! I am sure you will enjoy it. At least try to have fun.
I feel your angst. I went out last night. I had fun, but girrrrrl clubs are not the business anymore. I know you’ll have fun though!! Happy Founder’s Day!!
