August 18, 2010 || NYC a.k.a. National Yearly Conference ||

As we all know, that's not actually what NYC stands for, but our annual August National Conference is held every year in the great city of New York! This year, Omicron chapter sent 9 sisters to the Big Apple for the weekend (August 13-15). After a tiring 10 hour drive (12 hour drive for the slow car - which I was thankfully not in ;]) our girls arrived safely to our Kappa-infested hotel. During the meeting, we elected our new national Central Council board, met new friends, hugged old friends, and... drum roll please...
Introduced Our Newest Chapter:
CHI CHAPTER at
University of Maryland, College Park
Congratulations girls! It was personally my first time attending August Nationals, and I know I had a brilliant weekend. What a successful weekend for all!
Coming up next weekend is Neo Retreat for our lovely Mu Class so look out for their status updates on how it went! And then school starts soon, so we'll see you all back at OSU!

Until next time...


May 27, 2010 || Greek Week, Awards, and a Picnic on top.

Kappa Phi Lambda just finished participating in OSU's annual Greek Week. After a tiring week of Oval Stock, Quiz Bowl, Greek God and Goddess, the sisters were all really tired. (By the way, Krizzia Yanga *BAMF* WON Greek Goddess! THAT'S RIGHT! Living up to the nickname. Best Greek Goddess in ALL of Greek Life on OSU's campus!) But good news, it all paid off because we won for overall most points within the Multi-Cultural Greek Council! Exciting, right?! :] So many good things happened in one week.



Let's see... What else?... Oh yeah, as if I could really forget... ;]

Good things abound! KPL won CASA's (Chinese American Student Association) annual Fear Factor event for the SECOND YEAR IN A ROW. Good job to Michelle Zhu *Swizzle*, Krizzia Yanga *BAMF*, Jennifer Jeng *ULTRA*, and most of all Chelsea Lechner *Nácar*, who took us to the win in the final round! Way to go, girls! That food was seriously disgusting, so props.



Well. I am just chock full of good news, because our chapter won TWO awards within Greek Life for the annual Greek Awards given out by the Ohio Union office of Sorority and Fraternity Life. We got Most Improved Chapter and the Outstanding Diversity Program award. But that's not all!
Our very own Sarah Spencer *Belldandy* won the Living the Ritual award. CONGRATULATIONS, SARAH! That's such a fantastic accomplishment, and you definitely deserve it!



Haha, you thought I was done, didn't you? Well I'm not! One more announcement for your eagerly-awaiting ears. KPL co-hosted a BBQ along with PASA (Pakistani American Student Association), SASA (South Asian Student Association), and the MCC (Multi-Cultural Center) at Beekman Park this past Sunday. It was a great success so thank you to all who came out to enjoy some good food and volleyball. :]

Alright, alright. I'm done now. But I'll be back soon! Good luck on finals everyone!


May 4, 2010 || Littles, Murders, Dark Alleys, Oh my!


Since I never made an official announcement in here, I will make a big, huge, gigantic one right here, right now...




Ready?




CONGRATS TO THE MIAMI DELTAS AND (CONSEQUENTLY) THE 2 NEW MEMBERS OF OSU'S FAMILY!
Victoria Huang *Audemars* ~ Big: Chelsea Lechner *Nácar*
Dana Askar *Ranma* ~ Big: Sarah Spencer *Belldandy*




Also, though this news is not huge and obnoxious, it is equally important: congrats to Kappa's shiny, new colony at DUKE UNIVERSITY! Woot! Good luck, Charters!



Another point of notice, we have had several events over the past month, including our flawless and fun Murder Mystery Masquerade Ball on the April 15th, orchestrated by Tiffany and Crystal. I heard nothing but positive reviews, and I myself had a fabulous time spreading rumors. (Even though I was unjustifiably accused of being the murderer by three separate groups! Poor Evelyn Lewis!) So if you could not come out this year... look forward to what is sure to become an annual event!



Another happy event, Victoria Ng put together a culture event on April 22nd teaching all attendees to properly defend themselves against danger. Lead by our very own Jee-Young Choi, we learned easy methods of escape and control for dire situations. Fun was, of course, had by all.



And last but certainly not least, all of our sisters still attending OSU went on a Sisterhood retreat organized by Holly Choi on April 23&24. Bonding, too much junk food, a little spaghetti, and an adventure in waterfall wonderland bonded the Sisters of Omicron chapter during our one-night stay in Hocking Hills. Jealous? (It's okay, I would be if I were you.) ;]



That's all for now!

On August 8-9 Omicron chapter sent seven sisters to Kappa Phi Lambda's national meeting in New York City where sisters from every school come together with our Central Council to discuss national matters and strengthen our sorority as a whole. We had an amazing time meeting sisters from all over the country and exploring NYC. Five of our seven founding mothers from Bighamton were in attendance and spoke of the amazing growth that our sorority has gone through since it was founded fourteen years ago.

Upcoming Cultural Event

Event image.The sisters of Kappa Phi Lambda will be holding a Cultural Event titled "Asia in the Hood", held on Friday, December 5 from 5:00 - 7:00 PM at a location which has yet to be determined.

"'The triads of China and the Yakuza of Japan are the most notorious of the Asian crime organizations, but there are countless smaller groups from Taiwan, Vietnam, North and South Korea, Thailand, Laos, the Philippines and elsewhere involved in some form of organized criminal activity.THE ASIAN GANGSTERS are more likely than their Western counterparts to operate exclusively within their own ethnic groups, which allows them to remain largely invisible to police outside their homelands.'

Come! ~ Enjoy some free food and learn about some of the toughest gangs around the world!"

Learn more about the world of Asian Gangs at the event and get to know the sisters, as well! Be sure to check this page again for a location.

Kappa Phi Lambda wants to see you at your finest! So pull out those homecoming dresses, dust off your suits, and get ready for a masquerade ball like OSU has never seen before!

Kappa Phi Lambda will be having its first ever Ball.

This won't be like any other dinner/dance that you've experienced, because you or someone you know will die!

More specifically, this will be KPL's first ever Murder Mystery Dinner, in which all guests will play a role in the story. As dinner is being served, one guest will have their last meal, and remaining guests will put their detective skills to use to solve this mystery before the killer strikes again.

RSVP is necessary, as roles will need to be established.

Guests should dress in formal attire; masks will be sold at the door, or you may create your own for the occasion.

Dinner/participation is $10.

All proceeds will go to KPL's National Philanthropy, NAPAWF (National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum).

Let the games begin.
