So Songfest...let me try to wrap this up in a nutshell for those of you with question marks above your heads...{ya know...where the hypothetical "idea light bulb" would go} Songfest is a philanthropic event put on by the Chi-O's at A&M that all sororities and men's organizations are invited to participate in. Each sorority participating pairs up with a men's organization to make a team. Generally, each group chooses their own theme/story line and gets 7 minutes to put on a mini show. People sing some, and dance a lot!
I have always loved Songfest, and have been attending ever since my sister was in charge of Theta's show when she was at A&M. Well, this year I was in charge! I lead with my friend, Amy. We were paired with BCA {Brotherhood of Christian Aggies}. And when I say "paired", I mean that I pressured my friend, Matt who is in BCA, to be in charge of it on his end and do it with us. Theta is pretty notorious for putting on a good show at songfest. When Sarah (my sister) was in charge, they got first place, and then second. As long as I have been a Theta at A&M, we got second place my freshman year...first place my sophomore year (!)...and FIRST PLACE THIS YEAR!!
It was a LOT of hard work, but when we got that trophy, and giant check for our own philanthropy it was well worth it. I'm going to try to post a video so that y'all might be more understanding of my absence for the past month...
My friend, and fellow KAT, Grace took a video of us performing on stage, but since it's not my video, I can't post it. I'll have to post the one I took at our last practice. Please believe me that this video does not do the actual performance justice. Promise!
I'm the one in the blue tank top nervously putting my hair behind my ears in the beginning
Enjoy :)
Nothin but love,
Bethany
