Pi Kappa Alpha's Dream Girl Philanthropy Competition Founder Littleton Waller Tazewell... Evening wear with fishbowl questions... Coming up with a talent????.... What had I gotten myself into? These are all sections from the Pike Dream Girl Philanthropy event on April 9th. I decided to help out and participate to support the Pi Kappa Alpha Chapter at DePaul University. The competition comprised of a Pike Knowledge section having both questions about their National fraternity and the chapter here at DePaul University. Then there was a talent portion and evening wear with questions section. It was pretty neat getting to know about Pike facts more and learning their founders names was a studious task! The 6 founders of Pi Kappa Alpha all had unique names. Coming up with a talent was the most complicated section to me; I hadn’t played the piano or sang in years in front of people. What was going to be my talent, I just had sarcasm and a whistle….oh wait lifeguarding, I can teach people the basics of how to save lives.  |

The day of the event, I woke up a nervous wreck; I was running around all day trying to get ready for the event. Luckily I had the amazing help of some great sisters who were able to help out with my make up and hair and to actually get to the event. (Thank you Christine and Mindy) It was great to get to the event and see some familiar faces of other members from the fraternity and sorority life community and also at the same time to meet some new ones. I was going to be participating in the event with 7 other girls, from 4 different chapters. The ladies that I met that night and “competed” against were amazing women, so talented and friendly. We had a great time getting ready and just hanging out behind the scenes. As I was getting ready for the first event I looked over the balcony of the second floor and saw the smiling faces of friends and my sisters, my nerves disappeared. The event was meant to be fun, and for a good cause. I had a blast! I am so glad that I decided to step up to the plate and run for Pike Dream Girl. I will have memories and friends from this event which is the greatest prize I could ask for.
