Completely dirty rushed at ADPi but put DZ first because I thought they were socially a better house and that I would definitely get ADPi if I didn't get DZ.

I told myself on Bid Day if I got AOII I was not pledging so I was miserable!!! But I toughed it out and changed my tune and never looked back.

Crazy, amazing story but it was rough.
I want to make sure to say I definitely ended up where I needed to be. My 18 year old mind was too focused on what others where saying and reputations, especially at such a large greek campus where everything is socially stratified, that I didn't know how to find the right fit.

Sometimes I think 18 year olds should not be picking majors or rushing because there is too much noise that blocks out what the heart wants.
