WHEN U JUST MADE IT
 

I love to hear stories of the events where a person has strove to achieve their best and finds out they made "it", for example: when i tried out for my highschool girls there were about 55 girls and only 19 were accepted (the captain having already tried out by the choreographer made 20)30 or so girls were going to be disappointed amd for a week we exercised did a routine and become attached to certain people, to make a long story short I did my best on that Wednesday the day of the tryouts and waited anxiously on Friday during my second class of the day (the time those who made it would be given a sash and a rose)there was about 15 minutes left in this class and my friend (who tried out with me)both agreed we hadn't made it, and when all hope was gone they came (the captain and choreographer)came and handed my friend who was smiling but looked at me solemly her sash and crown and they walked out the classroom. I was hurt but i gave my friend a hug and told her i was happy for her. About a 50 seconds later, the worst 50 seconds of my life they came back calling me a good sport and congratulated me. One of my happiest moments so far.

I can relate to your story. I remember when I tried out for my high school booster team...I was so nervous...at first I KNEW I MADE IT....that's because I had a lot of confidence in my performance. Then I had doubts because I didn't think I really "looked" the part. But.....I MADE IT! I guess I fit in after all.

"If at first you don't succeed, brush yourself off and try again..."

I was so thrilled when we got our confirmation of membership into Zeta. I don't cry at much, but that day I cried...

Thank you so much for your replies....they were all so truly touching http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/cool.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

I felt like I had finished and begun upon a journey and huge accomplishment. Aside from being the first to attend college in my family, I am the first greek. Now all of my cousin's who are in college, are curious about Zeta! Whereas before, they didn't know about Greeks, nor did they care. I was also nervous because I knew it was going to be hard work and wanted to make sure I could meet the challenges. Lastly, I was simply happy because Zeta led me to cross paths with many beautiful women who are now my sorors and men who I can now call frat.
