Looking forward to it! Try to get some sleep, if that's even possible. If not, ya might want to watch a movie from your list to keep your mind occupied ;)

krrrristen 08-19-2010 09:06 PM

It was really funny today... I was asked what my favorite movie is (for the millionth time), and I just decided to say Grease. Maybe I should watch that.

Another one of my fave 70s movies is All That Jazz. I'm craving that movie right now =P

Leslie Anne 08-20-2010 03:51 AM

Best of luck to you, Krrrristen! I'm hoping for a Grease finale. :)


"All That Jazz" is one of my favorite films as well. Absolutely brilliant!

krrrristen 08-20-2010 01:26 PM

Pref parties were moved up to 4, so now we need to be at school at 3:15. I'm still getting the text messages from my Rho Gamma so I'm assuming that's a good sign =P

I'll let y'all know how it goes later!!! Thanks for being so sweet, everyone. I don't think I've ever felt so connected to and loved by people I don't know before. I really appreciate all of you guys being here for me this week.

<3

Good luck Kristen! So excited to hear how Prefs go and I'm glad you're an avid poster. I hate when PNM's come on here and post the beginning of their story and then disappear :( Trust me, we appreciate the frequent updates!!!

arrowlady 08-20-2010 02:42 PM

Love that you said your favorite movie was Grease! You have a great sense of humor I can tell. Keep smiling! And just wanted you to know I am pulling for you!!!

keysgirl 08-20-2010 03:02 PM

Good luck, Kristen!!!!!!!!!

MerryGPhiB 08-20-2010 03:06 PM

best wishes, Kristen... wish we had a GphiB chapter there.... any house that gets a girl with your great attitude is lucky!!!!

ThetaDancer 08-20-2010 04:16 PM

Good luck and have fun!

aephi alum 08-20-2010 05:09 PM

It only takes one... good luck!

Good luck!! :)

Soooo today was pref ceremony at Grease!! As if I didn't already love it, I love it even more now. I had the same girl rushing me today as I did yesterday. Honestly I get along better with her than I do with anyone else I can think of right now. Haha. We looked at her scrapbook, laughed, cried, and talked about tomorrow (which I don't think we were supposed to do. oops!). Even after all the heartache and stress of the week, I honestly can't see myself in any chapter other than Grease and I'm so glad it is working out this way. Since it's the only place I could be accepting a bid tomorrow, I'll go ahead and let y'all know that Grease is...

My original hesitation about this particular sorority was the fact that it is historically Jewish. However, I'll be the first to admit that I was totally wrong about them. I am so completely in love with these ladies, their philanthropies, and their sisterhood that I can't see myself joining anywhere else. I'll let y'all know what happens tomorrow.

aephi alum 08-20-2010 10:33 PM

I suspected. ;) Hopefully by this time tomorrow you'll have some pretty green and white ribbons to wear :)

arrowlady 08-20-2010 10:38 PM

Kristen- Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I am hoping your dream will come true tomorrow!

I am so happy that you have found your home!!!! Hopefully tomorrow you will be running to ΑΕΦ!!! ΑΕΦ will be so lucky to have a girl like you! :D

ellebud 08-21-2010 12:39 AM

I don't tear up often. But as an AEPhi, who so rarely sees us mentioned, from the pacific to the atlantic: I hope that tomorrow brings a warm welcome home!


...and I did mentioned that I loved some of your oldtime movie choices.

AXOrushadvisor 08-21-2010 01:54 AM

I've been texting my Rho Gamma all morning! They still haven't gotten schedules!! I'm like 99% sure I got in, but that 1% is totally killing me right now!

IrishLake 08-21-2010 10:34 AM

TriDeltaSallie 08-21-2010 11:40 AM

I really enjoyed reading your thread and am thankful you shared your experience with us.

ajmom3 08-21-2010 01:25 PM

Kristen, my daughter is a Junior UCF Aephi. You probably met her this week. Welcome!!!! Aephi at UCF is a very diverse group (made up of many religions and races). You will love being a part of the sisterhood. These girls are wonderful!

mittens 08-21-2010 01:32 PM

No phone calls!!! :D So happy you will be running to. . . .

aephi alum 08-21-2010 01:32 PM

Going by your last couple of posts, I'm going to assume that you did indeed receive a bid and that you're currently having a blast with your new sisters at UCF. So - Congratulations and welcome to AEΦ!

AZTheta 08-21-2010 01:52 PM

Girl, I am NOT a crier, or a big hugger BUT... I'm crying, and sending you a virtual hug. This has been an incredible recruitment story from beginning to end. AEPhi! YES!

congratulations. Welcome to the wonderful world of sisterhood.

arrowlady 08-21-2010 02:06 PM

I am so so happy for you!!!! I bet that run home was the best feeling ever!

stargirl007 08-21-2010 02:48 PM

This story is definite proof that it only takes ONE house to find your home.

Congrats and I hope your day is amazing!!

keysgirl 08-21-2010 03:21 PM

What a wonderful story. Enjoy it Kristen, so happy for you and AEPhi!!!!!!

*winter* 08-21-2010 04:06 PM

YAY!!!! Hope you are having a blast with all your new Alpha Epsilon Phi sisters!!!!!! Thanks again for sharing your story!

Lil_ChiO_Lady 08-21-2010 04:46 PM

Yay Krrristen
 
I have been reading this thread from the beginning and I am so thrilled for you...this thread should be marked as a good example for keeping an open mind about recruitment, as well as staying positive throughout the process.Congrats on AEF!!

P.S. I truely admire your attitude...HAVE FUN Today!!:D

qbt1990 08-21-2010 06:18 PM

I hope no news at this time means you're with your new sisters! Loved reading your story and congrats on AEPhi!!

krrrristen 08-21-2010 09:03 PM

So the enormous post I've promised is waiting until tomorrow when I can properly form a full sentence. Yes, I ran home to AEPhi today! We went to dinner and a drag show for our bid day celebration. OMG it was so much fun!!! My favorite part was though that they sang songs from *Grease*!!!! We all sang along, got pulled on stage, were groped, etc. My alpha friend is a little weird but lol it's okay cause she's my pref buddy's little and they are always together =P I'm really happy but omg so tired. I see no way I could make an intelligent sounding post tonight. Sorry, but it'll have to wait! =P Thanks for the kind words everyone! I appreciate your support sosososososo much <3
