Let’s Get Whipped into Shape: Elle’s Super Fantastic Case Prep Blog

​​Snaps!! It’s almost the big day!!! We’re preparing for Callaghan’s big internship case.

​(And by “we,” I mean Warner, Vivienne, and me! ME! I invited myself along! This is so exciting!)

​Warner and Vivienne – who hereafter will be known by “Viv” – are hard at work, doing some preliminary research on Brooke Wyndham and her fitness empire. As you can see, Warner is taking particular interest in how to achieve Brooke’s “nutcracker butt.” (In the words of Emmett’s mother.)

​What would study-time be without caffeine? Viv and I decide to make a quick trip to the nearby coffee-shop, and along the way I continue my fight to bring Viv to the Light Side – whoever said plum is the new pink is seriously disturbed!

​Viv and I try to decide what to get. I go straight for the espresso – IT GIVES ME ENERGY!!! – but Viv is feeling a bit peckish. She goes for an oh-so-scrumptious goat cheese sandwich, and I start rethinking my moratorium on bread.
Sidenote: look how cute we are!!!!

​And now we wait.

​Success!! Viv & I reunite with Warner, and the case prep resumes. Seen here: Warner keeps working on that same paper (I didn’t follow him to Harvard for his intelligence), and Viv takes notes on the effects of endorphins resulting from exercise (spoiler: they’re all great!!).

​Warner finally let go of the paper (he’s such a bonehead!), and I get a chance to read up on Brooke. I’m so so so so SO excited to work with a fellow Delta Nu, you have no idea. Her perseverance and insanely amazing commitment to fitness constantly inspire me – and it doesn’t hurt that her DVDs got me in shape to be June in the “Girls of UCLA” calendar, either!!
 
I know my chapter of DN got so sick of me saying this, but sisterhood really is forever. No matter what, I am completely convinced of Brooke’s innocence!

​Now all I have to do is convince the rest of the team . . .

​But I can do it! I am nothing if not 1.) Positive; and 2.) Persistent. Yeah!

​At the end of the day, prepping for my first case was a wonderful experience, made even more fabulous because I got to spend it with Viv. We kicked butt at research, and are going to rock this case. I Double Delta Nu Sister Swear it!

​And who knows?
Maybe Viv and I will be growing our own friendship garden super soon.
