First off, Kit Kat, let me say that even though it's my sisterhood that you are not exactly thrilled to be with, I really am sorry you did not get into your first choice. (((Kit Kat)))
Now my advice - and this is the SAME advice I give all women regardless of the org involved -
PLEASE go tonight! Please give pledging some time (at least a month) and see how you feel then! Since you were willing to put Chi O on your pref card, there must be something inside you that says maybe it will work out. You could have SIPd but you didn't, so I personally think that's your sub-consious talking to ya!
I also have a story of a chapter sister who got Chi O as her second choice and was less than thrilled at bid day. She stuck it out and became extrememly involved, held leadership positions and was a huge geek for all things Chi O.
Remember that you didn't meet every sister during recruitment. The girl I mentioned above never met me while she was going through. We ended up being the best of friends. Also, you need to see what the girls in the new member class are like. You didn't really get to meet any of them during recruitment, and they may make all the difference.
So good luck and give it a shot.
On a secondary note about prefs - and this is a general point/question to everyone...
I think just about every house tells every PNM at their pref party that they can really see a girl fitting in there. That's the point of prefs. You only invite to prefs women you really want as part of your sisterhood. So I wouldn't be turned off that they told everyone that - it's true!
I personally would think it's really weird to have a new woman be my main rusher on pref night. But Kit Kat's story is not the first we've heard like this. To people who have done this on the chapter side, what's the rationale for it? Just wondering.
