Theta Xi is always looking for potential brothers. The gentlemen in our fraternity are well-rounded: they excel academically, thrive socially, and are committed to maintaining healthy lifestyles and serving their communities.
During Rush, held at the start of most quarters, fraternities will host events at their houses for prospective members to meet existing brothers and get a feel for their house’s unique atmosphere. We encourage you to check out as many fraternities as possible to make sure that you find the right fit for you. If you attend one or more Rush events and/or demonstrate that you would be a good addition to the house, you may be extended a bid of membership which you can either accept or decline (you will have a few days to make your decision).
Those who have accepted their bids will join our fraternity as associate members. An associate member, or AM, is different from a “pledge” in that he is not of lower status than an initiated brother—he is an equal. During your AM period, you will be given all the same privileges afforded to active brothers, with the exception of voting rights and knowledge of our secrets, practices, and ritual. In addition to being treated like a brother, however, you are expected to act and participate like one as well.
At the start of your AM period (which typically lasts about seven weeks), you will be assigned a “Big Brother” and a “Big Sister” who will act as advisors and confidants to you throughout the quarter and beyond. Weekly meetings will be held wherein you are taught and subsequently quizzed on our fraternity’s history and infrastructure. There will be at most two mandatory events per week intended on acquainting you with active brothers and your fellow associate members. A project will be assigned to your AM class to be completed by some predetermined date. All of this translates to a maximum total time commitment of about six hours per week; however, we expect that everyone interested in becoming a brother of Theta Xi will want to participate in all of our events as well as study, eat, and socialize with us on a regular basis. The AM period will culminate with Live-In Weekend, during which all associate members are expected to live in the house and bond intensely with their future brothers. Those who have successfully fulfilled all of these requirements by the end of the AM period will be initiated as full-fledged brothers of Theta Xi.
There will be absolutely no hazing of any kind at Theta Xi. UCLA defines hazing as “any action taken which produces bodily harm or danger, mental or physical discomfort, embarrassment, harassment, fright, or ridicule.” It is outlined more explicitly in our fraternity’s National Constitution and By-Laws as:
Any action taken or situation created, intentionally, whether on or off fraternity premises, to produce mental or physical discomfort, embarrassment, harassment, or ridicule. Such activities may include but are not limited to . . . use of alcohol; paddling in any form; creation of excessive fatigue; physical and psychological shocks; quests, treasure hunts, scavenger hunts, road trips or any other such activities carried on outside or inside the confines of the chapter house; wearing of public apparel which is conspicuous and not normally in good taste; engaging in public stunts and buffoonery; morally degrading or humiliating games and activities; and any other activities which are not consistent with fraternal law, ritual or policy or the regulations and policies of educational institution.”
Once a common tradition, hazing has been banned by all national fraternal organizations and institutions of higher education. UCLA rigorously enforces this policy, and organizations that violate it are subject to immediate suspension of campus recognition and privileges; the same is true of our national headquarters. As an associate member, you will be expected to participate in various memorable events where you will have opportunities to learn more about our brothers, our chapter, and our fraternity as a whole. However, at no point will you be asked to do anything that no brother would do himself.

You may have read my post about birthdays when my son turned 8 last year...and so I won't bore you with another sermon. Because today is my daughter's 6th birthday, and I just grow more astounded every year they surpass. How did the little tiny thing that stole my heart grow into such a little lady???
This girl named Hannah loves to dance and loves music. In fact, she is in her room right now blaring Plumb. I thought that I would be able to wait until she was a teenager to bellow... "Turn down your music!!", but no, I get to do that on a daily basis.
This girl named Hannah drives me crazy with her moodiness and sassiness, and attitude, but it constantly reminds of my moodiness, sassiness, and attitude. I guess it is one of God's ways of teaching me.
This girl named Hannah is the most beautiful, precious daughter a momma could ever have. (Please understand that I know every mom feels this way!)But 6 years ago, I didn't know if I would get to see her 1st birthday, let alone her 6th. (I will post the full story at a later date)
This girl named Hannah loves getting her toes painted, and so we decided to take 2 special friends (Miss Trinity and Miss Katie) down to a salon and get their toes purtied up!! Hannah also requested chocolate cupcakes with strawberry frosting, and a cherry on the top. So I obliged. Homemade all the way, I might add!! After the salon, we went to Mimi's cafe and enjoyed cupcakes, tea and fellowship. She felt loved and I am so glad. :)
Happy Birthday Hannah! Good job mom for making the day so special for her and getting such a great photographer to capture it :)
Well.. you all can invite me to any party and I will take pictures for you. I love me a birthday party!!

The UNF YouTube channel is one of the most popular network sites around, with people recommending videos all the time either on YouTube or Facebook, and searching through the playlists for something that tickles their fancy (or their brains, more appropriately).
But here comes confession time for me: out of all those videos, I’ve watched hardly any of them. Only a few; a handful. These were videos that were recommended to me personally by some, or else, like the first video trial, the team was instructed to take the trial in a closed beta form before opening it to the public.
Reasons why I don’t spend a hell of a lot of time on YouTube watching videos or downloading them is simple: I live in a country where broadband is still catching on, and most of you will be shocked to learn that dial-up is still a big thing over here. Broadband and data solutions need to get cheaper – that’s all I can say. It’s gradually getting there, but it needs to get better. It’s not like America or other first world countries where broadband is available in most households, according to published surveys I’ve read. And YouTube will eat up your bandwidth like almost nothing else.
I’ve also got other things on the go, whether it’s maintaining other network sites or participating within them. I have many duties as a team member and co-founder. I’m a moderator on the ASMR forums; I own and maintain the YouTube channel, this blog, the Twitter page, as well as the article on HubPages. And then there’s the Facebook page as well. Not to mention all the emails and messages I have to go through. But at least I like what I do. I don’t get paid; it’s all volunteer.
I also find that I don’t need to watch these videos, seeing as I have ready access to the radio or television – and not to mention my personal collection of recorded sound clips that I listen to from time to time that do the trick nicely, as far as ASMR is concerned.
Then there’s my other projects, like blogs, and articles that I write on and maintain – outside of the ASMR network.
I’m not complaining, but it’s just that I don’t have a lot of time to watch these videos. It feels better getting it off my chest though. So how about any of you out there in the community? Do you watch every single video added to the several YouTube playlists, or do you pick them very selectively? Maybe like me you don’t watch most of them.
