1.) Wake Girls are NOT DTF
Ok so this might be a long post, but bear with me. There were a million different things I could have talked about in regards to this weekend, so I focused on Saturday as a whole and the most and least amusing things that happened to us. In the first list, #5 is pretty good and #1 is the best, while the second list #5 was not SO bad and #1 sucked. Now let me explain what happened with each event to garner their placement on this list. I'll start off with the #5's and work my way to the number 1's.
TOP: #5 Watching my lil sis run:
This one should be pretty self explanatory. It's been since her freshman year in highschool that ive gotten the opportunity to see my little sis run. She unfortunately ran the same length career in high school as me in college so I was always racing and in season when she was. I spent a lot of summers in Mich so I didn't get to see much of her in the summer either, so pretty much it was just awesome to watch her do her thing. Yes a little sappy but true none the less.
BOTTOM: #5 Bouncing back from Injury:
So while it was great getting to see her run, it kinda sucked too. I mean she wanted to run really great for her family, unfortunately this was her first outdoor season ever because all of last year she was hurt. As any athlete knows, or anyone really, your first competition back from Injury isn't usually a pretty one so I felt bad for her because she didn't do as well as she wanted to. The reason why this isn't SO bad is because she stayed healthy and is on a road to doing great things this season, so thats pretty legit.
TOP: #4 "Blarty" 2, Return of Jafar
As Cass and Chin and Mike O should know, I like to refer to any sequel as the return of jafar because I think its funny, and I love Aladdin ha. In any case although we had such a unique experience at the first black party, my sister TRICKED us into going to another one! that little sneak, making us pile into a car promising a track party then taking us to another black one ha. But all was well as this time it was much more entertaining. Actually, when we got there the Wake rent a cops were breaking the party up, which was hilarious because you had the party organizers telling us "it's cool, you guys can stay, you're good" while the police were turning on the lights and turning off the music. Then her back up comes in looks right at Stevie (wearing his clemson hat) and says "if you're not affiliated with Wake Forest you need to leave the school." My brother then proceeds to take his hat off ha. Guess you had to be there to see the humor in it. BUT that is not why this makes #4. So it turns out this party was across the street from the party we went to on Friday, but this time the building was being used by a White Frat...So naturally we head over there leaving all the Black people hanging out, literally, in the street. After a couple games of beer pong (Stann and I finally lost to Stevie and Devon in a 3OT thriller in which Stann made 4 in a row to get us to the first OT) we noticed that all the white people were leaving, like this place went from being pretty full to empty in a matter of minutes. So we take a break from the table, sit for like 5 minutes and all of a sudden a wave of black people pour into the room. Like they were all waiting till the last few white people left to take over. The music changed, the lights went darker, and next thing you knew it was "blarty" 2! ha it was awesome really, to see how quickly a dynamic of a party could change. The amusement factor is really why this lands at number 4.
BOTTOM: #4 The "Suite" Pregame
Ok so you guys remember the dorms right? Those really big Suite rooms that held like 3-5 kids and had a pretty sweet common area and big bathrooms and all that jazz? Well my sis's friends live in Wake's version of this and let me tell you it falls quite short. First of all it was just 4 small rooms with a connecting hallway and a bathroom. No TV room, no kitchen, no nothing. Just a skinny hallway that you would find yourself in if you were running from some murderer in a horror flick. On top of that, these girls were dirty...and no not the good kind of dirty. The Cassie's room after a weekend trip kind of dirty. All 4 rooms had clothes scattered over the place, we had to climb over bras and panties to find a place to walk and we did not dare sit on any of the beds ha. BUTT this was only 4 because a couple things saved them. 1. This girl named Ivy who was pretty legit. Cute and had a great personality, so her humor led us to stay in her room most of the time we were there. And 2, free alcohol. Yup can't really complain about that especially when you're taking shots of patron. Well played boring wake girls who had nothing else really going for them. And lastly, the quote of the trip came from this pregame. Her name was Devon...yeah the same name as my bro's friend, and she apparently hadn't gotten any in awhile, Cassie esque ha ha. So this guy at the track party tells her he "wants to see her" so she gets all excited thinking shes about to get it in. So she prepares as any girl who wants a quickly would, going commando. Her Quote "I'm not going to wear underwear, will he think I'm a slut?" Ah gotta love it, so many places to take this quote, I'll just let you guys have fun with that one....Later we learned that the guy didn't even show up to the party and I had to try really hard to restrain myself from sneaking a peek...really hard ha. But I guess this guy was either the man or gay because Devon was a cutie with a nice rack and even nicer butt...Oh Wake guys.
TOP: #3 Hot/Wet DKE Frat Party + Cross Country Party
Oh man where to start with this one, definitely the most interesting of the parties we found ourselves at this weekend. Its ONLY number 3 because no one ended up finding a girl to take home from either, even though we each were close and had one lined up at the Track party. But that's for later. Anyways After the White Party turned Black, we decided we wanted to move on, afterall we had heard that song before and didn't want to end up being close to another fight. So we somehow managed to get the address for the Track party and the 4 Brothers (3 literal) took off on an adventure. The track party was themed, something similar to an anything but clothes party but called something else, typical distance runner stuff if you ask me. I call it a Cross part because NO SPRINTERS were there ha, they all avoided that place like the plague, so Naturally the 4 Brothers were the only Brothers there ha. A pretty common theme of the trip. Anyways the reason the cross party made it this high was because like I mentioned earlier, each one of us, within minutes, found a girl who seemed like she wanted to have a good time. We didn't really get their names but we called them by what they were wearing, it was pretty funny. My girl wore a NC State gymnastic leotard so we called her wolfpack ha. At some point, not sure when, kinda when I was in the middle of trying to start a dance party, by yelling DANCE PARTTTYYYY ha ha my bro and Devon decided they wanted to check out this HOT party people were talking about. Apparently Once a year this frat, DKE throws a crazy party and this year it was a HOT party...had no idea what that meant, or what we were getting ourselves into, naturally that was incentive enough for us to go. So we started walking in a direction a guy pointed us in, ran into a group of girls wearing jerseys (which we thought was kinda weird, but oh well) who happened to be going to the same place as us and offered to escort us there. When I asked them about the Jerseys they said, you can't go to a frat party here and not wear jerseys....????what the heck does that mean? Well we found out ha. Oh and also we all decided that we were recruits on a visit, who left our host to explore the campus, worked out well, mostly. So here we arrive to this mansion, typical UM frat looking house, tons of rooms and floors. When we walk in everyone looks like they were sweating rags. Like hair all post-sex messy and people were drenched. One guy (who we had seen earlier in the day because Wake is apparently really small) warned us that we weren't dressed for the occasion and we SOON found out how true that was. You all remember that sweet foam party we threw back in the 407 days right? Well imagine that x3. Instead on a pit in the corner of an attic, they had their whole basement flooded. Tarps and palm trees and bamboo and rainforests, it was crazy, and HOT water was flowing from all sorts of places. A side note, one of the track girls told me that she got E COLI from this house twice and thats why she wasn't going this time, and once I looked at the water I saw what she meant. It was pretty much a swamp down there. All kinds of whatever fluids laid in the water with beer and liquor and sweat and blood all mixed...Naturally me being the instigator, took off my shoes, rolled up my jeans, and jumped in ha. On my first tour through the forest I saw two sets of boobs, and just typical frat party mayhem going on, like people were having sex in the water ha. So I came back very excited and convinced the 4 brothers to join me. 3 of us were typical black people and wore shorts under our pants, Stann being the only one who didnt (and oddly enough this was my first time doing it, and at the hotel when I was getting dressed it just somehow seemed like a good idea). We jumped in the mayhem with promised of finding a girl who was down. Alas this is where this party with boundless potential falls short, the Wake girls who came to this frat clearly came with guys in mind as every girl was either wifed up or looking for a particular. But more on that later.
BOTTOM: #3 Wake Campus on Sat. Night
Short post. Basically we had a lot of walking to do on Sat so we saw all of Wake's campus and even most of it's off campus. Friday night EVERYONE and their MOM, literally, were out and about. Houses were partying and people were happy. SATURDAY IT WAS DEAD. and Not the walking dead kind of dead but the POST APOCALYPTIC EVERYONE IS GONE KIND OF DEAD. We saw a handful of people throughout the night, and yes they were the same people. I dunno what about this campus says don't go out on Saturday but everyone listened to it. So sad.
TOP: #2 Cheyenne
Ok so first of all, No she's not 46. And No I didn't even say "hello" or hook up with her in any way really. In fact the only thing I got from her was a nice dance and a facebook friend request. BUT let me tell you simply why she's number 2. She was hands down the most beautiful girl I saw while at Wake. The kind of girl that you see when you go to a big city and just KNOW she's OFF LIMITS and you could never get her. She was not only gorgeous but had a great personality, and hung out with us most of the night. And I guess a bonus is that her name is Cheyenne Woods, niece to the one and only Tiger. Yeah so I guess that's reason enough for her to climb to the 2 spot, naturally if anything had happened she would be 1. But maybe I can do the long range facebook flirt thing and put in some ground work for later because she is the kind of girl you Marry.
BOTTOM: #2 Wake Police Dept.
More accurately, the TWO police officers at Wake. First of all you have to have an escort to get into their campus, by car, after 10pm. They take their private school stuff seriously I guess. Second, this two officers followed only the Black people all weekend. Ok seems a little far fetched but I kid you not. We went to numerous parties that weren't broken up, but somehow the "nature" of every black party we went to made these two cops come in and break it up. I mean yeah I'm too old to worry about police officers anymore, but these two were just annoying. At least the lady cops in AA can sometimes have some appeal to them, a semi-cute women trying to assert herself, fine I can deal with that. But a BEAT women flashing a light in your face...ugh just annoying. They started at number 5 but every party they broke up made them climb to number 2, yes 3 parties just Saturday alone. I suppose their one defense is that literally it was the same black people walking to different houses, so they probably just followed them and kept breaking the parties up...still pretty annoying. Quote from a black girl "I feel like they're following me everywhere I go"...me "yes, yes they are."
NUMBER 1!: The Waithe Siblings together.
We are all personalities, anyone who meets any one of us knows that. Combine Stann, Me, Stevie and Annever, and put us at the same parties...just sheer madness and chaos, but the best kind you could ask for. Every personality type shone bright this night. Stann, the crazy drunk creepy guy at his best, at one party he was literally rubbing his hands and body all over a wall...when asked why he said he was "trying to fix the paintings on the wall" yup. Me I was the overly optimistic instigator. Getting everyone hyped for situations that I had no idea about. Making everyone strip into shorts and t-shirt diving into a murky swamp water in a basement. Stevie, most of you probably have not spent much time with him yet but he's the I'm going to dance really sick and get all the attention guy. Anytime any type of beat came on you could dougie to came on he went in, and yes he puts me to shame. He's got a weird smooth swagger about him and has no idea the potential he holds. Best of all, he STILL doesn't drink and has not even scratched the surface of what being the "life" of the party really means. Pretty much he's like a Stev 3.0...taller, and better dancer ha. And my sis, well she's the only girl, so it's like Stann if he was a girl. Outgoing, get's drunk quick and disappears on you ha. On Sat she disappeared at like 1, and we later found out she passed out at a friends room the FIRST party we went to ha. Classic Stann dipping out on you, which he did do a couple of times this weekend ha. So yeah its hard to really explain the dynamic of us all together, but just know it was something that can never be duplicated. Lastly, this was most likely the LAST time we'll all be together in this fashion, and it was the FIRST time we've all gone out to parties together, so just pretty special to me. Seeing everyone grow up and become their own individuals, very nice.
THE WORST THING ABOUT WAKE: Girls are NOT Down.
Ok so really the only problem here is that Wake girls are not open to meeting new people or rather random guys. I mean every guy knows about rejection, it happens often and regular and you move on. But the twin brother darknesses always at least get a girl to settle for, and my lil bro is no slouch either. It took me awhile to understand what was going on but at the DKE party it finally hit me. Wake girls are down, just not for random guys they don't know. Walking around Saturday made me realize that most people at Wake know each other. It's not like UM where you can meet a new person everytime you go out. Its literally my sister would see someone and know their first and last names. Crazy private schools. Ok so most of the time alright that makes sense, but even drunk girls at a frat party. I mean people were having sex in this swamp and girls would still ask, when asked to dance, "do I know you?" Like really, you can barely stand but somehow you know you don't know me. Granted there are not a lot of black people at Wake, and the ones there are all hang out together ha but thats never been an issue before. I mean I'm in no hurry to get to 46, because I'd like to stop at 50, a nice even meaningful number ha. But when you can't even really get a girls number or even a DANCE...geesh. I should say that if I went there it would be different, once you're in you're in. But for anyone visiting, like say a recruit who usually gets girls handed to him at other campuses, I can see why the really fast people choose the bigger Public ACC schools to go to. So when I say down I don't just mean hooking up, I mean down with meeting someone new and having a good time with someone they haven't seen before. The One noticed exception to this rule was the Cross girls. later in the night we all realized that while we got an adventure out of the deal, we would have had better luck staying within the track family, probably because they were more comfortable knowing we were affiliated with track in general.
Overall Rating: B+
I mean I don't need to hook up with girls to have a good time, most of the time I do need to dance though ha. So everything into account a B+ is a really good time at wake, even a great time but not the BEST time I could have had. Spending time with the siblings was a priceless time but one that could have been elevated more at any other campus ha. So dear Wake Forest, thank you for opening your gates (as long as my sis was with us to let us in) and showing me what your campus is all about. I don't foresee myself wanting to drive the 6 hours to get there anytime soon, but if I'm ever around that area maybe I'll pop by for a hello.
