That is exactly what I did, and you are right. The could-be new members are all a cool bunch of girls that I could see myself being really cool with, and some I already am. So yeah feeling much better.
So yeah obviously I had a good time tonight. It was amazing. I felt great throughout the ceremony and actually really happy. I talked to one of the girls I really clicked with earlier on and we talked the whole night. We actually have some mutual friends that we work out with, so we are going to all work out together. I just really had a great time talking to her.
Yes I know what u mean by wanting a more diverse group. And true some people gravitate to people like them. I came from a predominantly white area, and most of my friends were white. So I gravitate to people who are like me, and don't look at race. So having 1 minority girl will not just bring more into your group. But stereotypes are out there. And my dad was an immigrant so that doesn't even change it. He came from Ghana in Africa when he was 19. So yes I have a direct connection to Africa and embrace it by joining the African organization, but that doesn't change where I feel comfortable. Sorry to rant, but I just hate when people assume things about me because I am a minority. No I'm not from the ghetto, I don't cuss, I don't like rap music, and I don't eat fried chicken all the time. I am just me, and true to myself for the most part.
Now back to the important situation. I did my pref card tonight. We actually do everything by computer so I have no idea whats going to happen. Then told us that we could put anyones from today and yesterday in the top two spots, and to put all 4 down.
I ranked them like
PepperAnn
Doug
Lizzie
Braceface.
I don't know if that was the best decision to put Doug second, bc now I think I like them best. Oh well. I will just see what happens tommorrow at 10. If anybody doesn't get a bid they find out earlier so I would know b4 10. Hopefully I do though. I know being in any NPC Sorority is an honor and I hope I can gain that. I really hope I get to run down that hill tommorrow.
Thanks soooooooooooooooooo much for all of your advice. I can't even imagine what would have happened without it. I might not have even rushed. I am soooooo happy I finally went through with it, and wish I would have earlier. But that is what happens. So yeah send good vibes my way. I am sooooo excited.
