CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I'm so glad you ended up where you are happy. I can't even imagine having a chapter of 201, but it must be so exciting!

I hope you decide to share the ongoing story of your life in AZD, I think a bunch of us would love to read about it! No question, you are a wonderful storyteller!

Fraternally,
Christin

Congrats Alison and Alpha Xi Delta! :)

I throughly enjoyed your rush story

Welcome, Alison!!! What a wonderful ending to an amazingly good story, and a wonderful beginning to a lifetime with Alpha Xi Delta. You have joined an outstanding chapter, and a sisterhood that's second to none. Maybe we'll all get to meet you next year, when National Convention is in Orlando?! In the meantime, enjoy, and TFJ!!

However I definately think that it's totally uncalled for to be so rude to Alison. Why heck would someone make up a rush story?

Actually, funny and stupid story...

Some of my sisters and I were sitting with a girl and she started tellign us all about how she rushed at our school, telling us what she thought of all the NPC sororities and how much fun she had, and how she ended up an Alpha Phi.

Well, we were totally happy for her, until my suitemate who was an Alpha Phi came up to us and I was like, "Hey Erin look! She just joined your sorority!"

That girl said "I gotta go," then took off.

Erin was like. "Umm, no she didn't. She got cut from every house during round one, but kept trying to come back."

My sisters and I were like :eek: .

So sadly, it does happen, I wasn't accusing Alison. I should have censored my bitchies after dealing with the hospital. I sowwy. :(

And CONGRATS on going AZD.~~~

You should write for a thriller show. The suspense did drive me mad, as you can see! :D

AZ-AlphaXi 08-20-2002 05:58 PM

Congratulations!! and welcome to Alpha Xi. To echo others, you really know how to spin a story. Enjoy your new member period and let us know how it goes .. BTW .. how many women are in your new member class?

TFJ

KDHoney 08-20-2002 08:13 PM

Congrat Alison! Awesome storytelling! I'm glad you found the right place for you:D

fuzzie 08-20-2002 09:54 PM

Yeah!! The first new Alpha Xi of recruitment!! :D Welcome to Alpha Xi. You're going to love Alpha Xi Delta (I hope ;) ).

Oh, and your story telling was cruel, but very good.

Xi love and TFJ,
Mindy

Each house had a video that they made, mostly of clips of their sisterhood. A couple of them incorporated movie clips or television clips into it. They all incorporated music. Most of them separated the videos into sections - i.e. sisterhood, formals, out and about, intramurals, etc. - but they all did it differently.

Every video that I saw (5, of the 9 sororities) was absolutely top-notch. We have some very creative chapters at UCF!

My Rho Gamma was a Tri-Delt, which a lot of us guessed at first and then she tricked us.

I didn't get to see all four sadly, from our combined groups, because of the way they did it, but I'm pretty sure one was a Chi-O.

I'm pretty sure we have quota, which I *think* was 70. It might be a little more or less.

There were a lot of girls that rushed this semester. A lot of sophomores, especially, it seemed. (I'm a freshman, FYI.)


Thanks to everyone for all your warm wishes and compliments!

I especially want to thank GPhiBLtColonel, who weeks ago helped me out with Recs. I'm not sure exactly which chapters I had them for, but I love how hard she worked to help me.

I'm glad you enjoyed my story.

Thanks to you all,
-Allie

theta sig agd 08-21-2002 02:40 AM

Congrats Allison! I hope you are always this excited about being greek!!!

carnation 06-30-2015 01:31 PM

I don't remember this one but decided to bump it. I can really empathize with her at that one house where they were practically trying to get her to sign up for intramurals; I was a tiny, unathletic thing (except for cheering) and during rush, this one house sent over girl after girl talking about intramurals. Which they always won. In every sport.

Sorority members! If you see that the PNM you're talking to is retreating into the chair cushions, change the subject!

Katmandu 07-02-2015 07:28 PM

Why are threads from over a decade ago being bumped to the top? It's really bizarre. The diaper thread from 1999 is another one....

carnation 07-02-2015 08:20 PM

A lot of them that I bumped were spam bumps. They were good threads, though!

Katmandu 07-02-2015 09:05 PM

Oh, gotcha. Makes sense. Thought I fell down a rabbit hole.

DGTess 07-05-2015 09:08 AM

I may be in the minority, but I'd much rather just scroll past the spam posts (they're rather obvious) than hopefully click on a real one just to find it's nothing but the word "bump".

That is, to me, much more annoying than spam.

I agree, the spam is very easy to weed through.. the bump post not as much

jolene 07-05-2015 07:39 PM

Since I'm relatively new, I like the bump posts--especially if they are recruitment stories. :D
