I know that this is long an full of suspense, but how did you think i felt at that point? my nerves were DEFINITELY all over the place.


We've all been through some sort of process - formal recruitment, cob...we know that its long, emotional and political for some. Can you finish your story up in the next post please?

Great story so far, I love how people are getting worked up about how long this is taking....good things come to those who wait lol

I just read (most of) this tonight, and I have to say aprocess is a good storyteller. I am into this story.

...BUT! I'm starting to feel like I'm watching Friday the 13th XXI. The story started off well and seemed unique because it's so different and ...honest. Now, I'm getting all these filler sequels that leave you disappointed. Seriously, we're reaching a point where good storytelling with lessons learned and emotional twists starts to nosedive in the name of suspense and dragging it out. Unnecessary.

Seriously (and politely), please finish the story in 2 - 3 more segments. Please?

This thread went from being excellent to really lame.

Uh-huh. Did the OP wear panyhose with rhinestones on them? Or have a twin going through recruitment with her? (I guess I'm not the only one thinking this!)

In my chapter (and I think Pi Phi nationally) the number you match doesn't actually matter. You have to actually send them through the pledging ceremony (which happens the morning after Bid Day). That was all nationals cared about. If you had more people on your list that didn't show up and pledge, then they didn't count.

That could be a Pi Phi thing, or a more modern thing, I dunno.

I was starting to think the same thing. Was anyone else anticipating some magical bid to Serena or was it just me?

It wasn't just you...although since she's bound to Marissa for a year, I don't see how she could accept a magical bid, if one appeared.
