I get the phone call saying I had been invited back to my top two! True Religion and Citizens! I was so happy I had been getting more and more nervous that because of my status I would be dropped, and even my rho chi seemed impressed at the number of invites our group of upperclassmen had recieved.
My first house of the night was
Citizens.
Their pref ceremony was really beautiful, and the girl that preffed me was one I had met earlier in the week who was SO sweet and so genuine. I was touched by how much the sisters seemed to care about each other, but I still felt more like a stranger looking in on the sisterhood versus feeling like I was becoming a PART of it with them. Left with a warm feeling and knew that several of those girls would become my friends whether or not I joined with them in sisterhood.
True Religion
From the moment I stepped in I just felt overwhelmed with being there. It was so somber and quiet and all the sisters looked so beautiful, the pref ceremony was gorgeous and heartfelt and touching and everyone was crying. I knew I belonged here, I knew that this was the house I wanted after going through all the rounds. I left emotional but very sure of my decision.
When I went to rank, I suicided
True Religion..now before anyone bites my head off, I knew that that would dramatically lower my chances of finding a home, but I truly felt that if I didn't have a home there, that Citizens would not fill the need that I had. However, there is something brewing on my campus that I can't mention right now but will soon that also factored into my decision.....
Waiting on the phone call.....
