16 Reasons Why You Should Be At ThetaFest
Elizabeth Gentry

On November 3rd, 2017, Kappa Alpha Theta at Texas A&M will be holding their event ThetaFest, a $5 fajita dinner held at the Theta house that includes entertainment, music, and a silent auction. If you haven't bought your ticket already, here are 16 reasons why we should see you at ThetaFest:

1. Fajitas. Duh.

Just thinking about enjoying a dinner with 2 fajitas, rice and beans, queso, toppings, and a dessert makes you drool…

2. Live entertainment!

As you enjoy your fajitas, you can listen to great music by Wynn Williams and David’s Room! (plus who doesn’t love a good dance party?)

3. It’s $5

College kids can’t say no to a good deal (and avoiding SBISA food).

4. Your friends will want to be there!

Many other organizations, members of the community, family and friends come to our event. Think of all the people you can meet!

5. Think of all the Insta likes

College girls don't want to miss out on a cute, social photo op

6. There will be games

THIS is the chance to prove to your friends that you’re the ultimate champion of lawn games (or if you’re not…practice before the tailgates the next day).

7. Not a rumor: there’s a salsa competition

Not only can you eat salsa, but you can COMPETE for the best salsa recipe! (Or just eat salsa…that’s my plan).

8. There’s a chance to get great prizes

The auction baskets this year are awesome.

9. The food

Yes, this deserves to be mentioned twice.

10. Thetas will be there and working hard!

We like to call our philanthropies the heartbeat behind our chapter. You’ll see all your Theta friends working ThetaFest for the kids!

11. It’s a great way to procrastinate

Obviously, you should put off your homework to enjoy a Friday night and see all of your friends and Thetas at ThetaFest!

12. You get to hang out at the Theta House

We love our big blue house, and it’s even prettier on the night of ThetaFest! There are twinkly lights, lots of brand new friends, and gorgeous decorations (that our girls have made!!). Plus, you can sit on our porch swing!!!

13. It’s for a good cause

Our local philanthropy, Scotty's House, is a child advocacy center based out of Bryan, TX. Scotty's House provides a safe environment for kids who were abused to tell their story and receive medical attention and therapy. A portion of the proceeds will also go to Theta Foundation, a scholarship fund that exists separately from the fraternity, to provide support for educational, leadership, and philanthropic programs such as our national philanthropy Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA).

14. DESSERTS

Tiff’s Treats and Nothing Bundt cakes will be at our event! (These companies are worth cheating on your diet for)

15. $5 fajitas with all of your friends.

Just makin’ sure you remember.

16. We want you there!

ThetaFest has the ability to change lives and bring people closer together as a meal is shared. We hope to see you at our event to help us further change the lives of children across our area!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
