EGDeepher's little sister's recruitment
 
So I know how much everyone loves stories I decided to write one. My little sister's recruitment begins tonight at a small school in NJ. The school has 3 sororities 1 local and 2 NPC.

Here's the schedule of events:

Tonight: Recruitment kick off
Tomorrow: Philanthropy event
Thursday: Round Robin
Monday- Wed: Pref Parties
Next Thursday: Day of Silence
Next Friday: Bid Night

Since my fav band is Green Day I'll name the sororities after their band members.

Billie Joe
Tre Cool
Mike Dirnt

I'll keep everyone posted as soon as I know everything.

I love Green Day - great choice for code names! Best of luck to your sister!

FSUZeta 01-16-2007 07:14 PM

how evil that the school makes the pnms wait an entire day(and night) until they get their bids.

good luck to egdeepher's sister!!

Is there a DPhiE chapter at her school?

violetpretty 01-16-2007 09:00 PM

GREAT choice in code names! And I am excited to read a Jersey thread, because I learned to appreciate NJ even though everyone else makes fun of it. Any chance you could have another Deepher?

EGDeepher 01-16-2007 11:09 PM

Yes there is a chance we'll have another Deepher. I'd love her to join D Phi E but I want her to make her own choice so I'm staying out of it. :)

I like to think that they're just jealous of us. :)

Stef the Pef 01-17-2007 01:17 AM

Love the codenames! Love love love!

Best of luck to your sister!

Denise_DPhiE 01-17-2007 12:08 PM

Yeah - a NJ AND potential DPhiE thread all rolled into one!!

Emory Kappa 01-17-2007 12:32 PM

Best of luck to your sister! My sophomore roommate was a Deepher, and we had irises all over our room.

Love the code names too. BTW, Mike's last name is spelled Dirnt.:)

EGDeepher 01-17-2007 02:30 PM

Thanks Emory, I was in a rush and didn't catch that lol.

So here's an update on last night's event:

It was pretty informal so there's not much to say. The girls got to meet their recruitment councelors and group members last night. The RC's went over all rush related stuff, events, rules, how recruitment works etc.

Tonight all of the sororities are coming together to make sandwiches for the local shelter so the girls get to talk to some girls before round robin tomorrow night.

best of luck to your sister!

I am jealous of the Jersey attitude. Example: one of my chapter sisters from NJ was pulled over by a cop for failure to stop at a stop sign and has the guts to tell the cop that she wouldn't have been pulled over in Jersey AND that she would see him in court.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! That's awesome!!! It makes me proud....:) :) I'm sure your sister would LOVE to give you Jersey lessons, if you'd like. It's all about having big....ovaries.

and not knowing how to pump your own gas

Ain't it the truth.

EGDeepher 01-18-2007 03:46 PM

It's not a matter of not knowing how to pump gas it's why do it if someone else gets paid to?...

Anyway here's my update:

My sister had a great time at the philanthropy event. She didn't realize how many girls she knew who are Greek.

Here's her first impressions of the houses (let's see how much they change after tonight's round robin):

Billie Joe: She says their very down to earth and easy to talk to. She loved all the girls she met and could see herself in this house.

Tre Cool: She says their's all athleteic girls who like to have a good time. Feels like she could see herself in this house.

Mike Dirnt: She says the girls seem "fake". They were being nice to her but it didn't feel geniune to her. This is her least fav. house at the moment.

Anyway tonight they're gonna tour the houses and here's where she'll really begin to find where she belongs.

Stef the Pef 01-18-2007 05:53 PM

Yay! I'm glad she's seeing peole she knows in the houses.

I hope she has a good experience with the house tours, too!

FSUZeta 01-19-2007 08:58 AM

hope she has a good day!

EGDeepher 01-19-2007 09:07 PM

Ok everyone here's our update. Sorry it's late but I got caught up today.

Here's what she said about the houses. **Note her exact words have been changed because the Jersey attitude may offend those that don't understand**

The first house she visited was Tre Cool. She liked the girls but feels like she may not fit in. She described their house as "strange". I'm not sure what that means but we'll find out. She wants to give them another chance.

Next up was Billie Joe. It was her absolute favorite of the night. She said the girls seem geniune and fun. She can really see herself in this house.

Finally was Mike Dirnt. She said they're the biggest group of "superficial, fake Barbies" she ever seen in one place. As you can tell she didn't get a good vibe from this house.

Here's the rankings so far:
1) Billie Joe
2) Tre Cool
3) Mike Dirnt

She gets her invites to pref tomorrow. New members are allowed to attend all three if invited but are incouraged to drop one if they don't feel comfortable at a particular house. I'll let you know when she calls.

Me too.

Good luck to her!

EGDeepher 01-21-2007 05:56 PM

Ok Everyone,

My sister was invited to all three pref parties.

Tomorrow is Billie Joe.
Tuesday is Mike Dirnt.
Wednesday is Tre Cool.

She's deff going to Billie Joe and Tre Cool but doesn't know if she wants to go to Mike Dirnt.

Emory Kappa 01-21-2007 06:00 PM

Good for her! It must be difficult having pref parties on three different nights.

Denise_DPhiE 01-22-2007 09:41 AM

Wow, can you say three totally different types of groups! Yes, we must definitely do it different in Jersey!

Good luck to her.

Stef the Pef 01-22-2007 01:14 PM

Heck, I'd go to all three. Pref parties are fun. Good luck to her!

tunatartare 01-22-2007 01:19 PM

I don't know how pref is at her school, but if it's a dinner type thing, I would tell her to go to all three just to avoid eating in the cafeteria. A lot of the freshman girls in my school would do this. Plus pref parties are fun.

EGDeepher 01-22-2007 08:43 PM

At her school pref parties are held after 9 pm and are usually a ceremony with light snacks. She'd still have to eat in the cafeteria.

FSUZeta 01-22-2007 09:11 PM

the very best luck to her!!

Stef the Pef 01-23-2007 04:55 AM

Light snacks are tasty business, though.

I say check out the cheese and cracker setup. Mmmmmm.

EGDeepher 01-23-2007 08:54 PM

Here is a quick update:

Last night was Billie Joe's pref party. She absolutely fell in love with the house. This is where she wants to become a sister of. She a little worried though because 27 girls showed up to pref and there are only 11 spots (quota).

Because of her strong feelings for Billie Joe and her uncomfortable feelings at Mike Dirnt she has decided not to attend their pref party. She said she didn't want to take another girls spot who really wanted to be there.

Tomorrow night she's going to Tre Cool's pref party because she wants to give them another chance before making her decision.

A little update on her 4 best friends:
Two invited to all three as well.
One was invited to Billie Joe and Tre Cool
One was cut by all three due to grades.

FSUZeta 01-23-2007 09:01 PM

go little sister!!

SigKapSweetie 01-23-2007 10:30 PM

Good luck to her!

Stef the Pef 01-23-2007 10:37 PM

Yay! I'm glad she's having a good time.

Drolefille 01-24-2007 12:27 AM

Yay for her!

TwinStars09 01-24-2007 12:26 PM

It's great to hear that she's having such a good time - best of luck to her!

EGDeepher 01-25-2007 10:56 PM

Ok everyone tomorrow is the big day.

Last night my sister attended Tre Cool's pref party. She had a good time but didn't feel like she fit into their sisterhood.

Today was bid signing and she decided to sucide Billie Joe.

She'll know if she recieved a bid at noon tomorrow

AlexMack 01-25-2007 10:58 PM

Okay, now I'm excited for her. I hope she gets what she wants! *fingers crossed*

Drolefille 01-26-2007 01:49 AM

Crossing fingers and toes and eyes :D

Stef the Pef 01-26-2007 03:29 AM

YAY! I really hope she gets it.
