So Today was the kick-off day for our yearly Sigma Chi Derby Days fundraising. This whole week, we will be trying to raise money for the John Huntsman Cancer foundation. We had our decathlon today which is an event where all of the teams of girls compete in events like the 3-leg race, wiffle golf, flag-football, dodgeball, and a relay race. It was a very fun event and a great way to start off the week. We have events going on all week so keep checking here to see an update! Hope you enjoy the pictures of the decathlon I’m posting,

Derby Days Decathlon!
Sunday, April 17th, 2011U.S. Airways A320 Sim!
Monday, April 11th, 2011So I had the great chance of flying the full motion A320 sim at U.S. airways this past weekend! I got home at 5:30am on Monday morning so I am still really tired and I have a flight here pretty soon. Still am safe enough to fly so no worries about that. Anyways, the sim was stressful! Fun but really stressful. We had to deal with emergencies, approaches, and hand flying that really big sim all while trying to be a team. It was really hard and at one point I though I was going to fail. I ended up getting a 90% on the sim so I must have done something right. I cannot wait to fly the real jetliners with a real airline. I’m putting up a video. It’s not the best but enjoy! Anyways, time for a flight so TTYL!
Initiation and Formal!
Monday, April 4th, 2011So this past weekend was a lot of fun. Busy but a lot of fun. We had our initiation for Sigma Chi where we inducted 3 outstanding individuals into our order. Can’t say what we did since it is a secret so I you want to find out, come join Sigma Chi!
Formal was great! We had it in the Manzanita Grill next to the Golf Course by the airport. We had the whole room rented out for us and the dinner was amazing! Prime Rib is what I had. I really liked everything about it. We had some of our Alumni come down so it was a great time meeting them and catching up. That’s one thing that I want to say, the bonds that I have made in Sigma Chi are lifelong. That is how ERAU also is. there are some many good people here on this campus that you are going to find and make some great relationships here. Plus the experiences that you are going to go through with them are ones that will make some great stories to share with your parents, grandparents, and future kids! Or just share with other Embry-Riddle students. Anyways, just wanted to share my great experience with you all. Wait until next week. I am going to fly the Airbus A320 full motion Sim in U.S. Airways! Anyways TTYL!
