Lip Sync
This weekend it was a work weekend for me. Becky got back from Germany so we got to work on thesis and really made some good ground. I also got a lot done on my pile of other projects as well. Got everything ready for WRGA and the conference I got this weekend in San Francisco. Much more work then I thought, but I am excited for the conference.

This weekend also ended Greek Week and last night was Lip Sync, the big stage performance. I want to give an ultra shot out to The Betas. They competed in Greek Week, all the events. As the smallest group that participated they gave everyone a run for their money. On Friday they were in third place over all! They did not end the week ranked but gave everyone a spectacular show. And reminded everyone that it is quality over quantity.

Lip Sync here is a 6 minute performance. It included an intro involving an MC and then dancing and skits which are all judged for theme relation and quality. The Betas only had four guys that could perform, and I helped with the MC part and skit. They were picked to go first and lite the room up!

It started to the song Lowrider. Hermen rode out in his chromed out award winning lowrider bike, Ramiro rode out on Novali's Barbie trike which they added some chrome spinners to. Santi and Max were shooting dice on stage and chillin. Then an explosion and a voiceover (done by me) introduced them and their assigned Greek god for the week. And then the Betas got hot...

Max, Hermen and Ramiro danced while Santi lip synced and they looked good. Just the four of them... doing their thing. They did a little hip hop, and then got everyone excited with some Kumbia Kings followed by a Merengue in which the pulled some random girls from the crowd to dance with them. Everyone got into it!

Busting some Cumbia skills.

Sweaty and tired... they finished.

They got awesome applause and got Lip Sync off to a fabulous start. I am so proud of the guys. They worked hard from start to finish. Next year if they remember to bring their flag to all the events, and teach Santi how to dance... they will win this thing!
