"Row, bitches, row" - the wise words of my sorority president during one of my terms on the executive board. Did you know that when I was in college I joined a sorority? It's true. I'm still a sorority member even though I'm all growed up because once a Phi Sig, always a Phi Sig. That's how it works.
This weekend I went to Lake Tahoe for one of my sorority sister's bachelorette parties. There are no words to explain how awesome she is, and I was so happy to be a part of her special weekend. We stayed at a beautiful cabin-castle and ate, drank, partied, got dressed up, got dressed down, went out on the boat, and went on a river raft.

Tubing on the lake and rafting down the Truckee river were my two favorite activities while in Tahoe. (My number one favorite activity of the entire weekend was talking about feelings at 6:20 a.m. on the car ride up. I have a lot of feelings.)

The end of the rafting trail. Next stop - beers. |
I absolutely love rivers, and even though I'm totally inexperienced, I liked rafting too. There were no big rapids or anything, but it did take some effort. My arms got a crazy workout like they haven't seen since ever. It was not without its challenges though. 11 (kind of controlling, a little bit Type A, and maybe kinda cranky) women in a raft. 4 paddles. 1 river with a mind of its own. We found a good rhythm after awhile, but at first I was all -

"WTF kinda paddling is that?!" |
I guess I should have tried hiding my unenthusiasm a little better. In the end though, we kicked that river's ass, and that negates my stink-face. Right?
