I'll name the houses:
red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, brown, black, white, gray
(colors have NOTHING to do with sorority colors)
Day 1-2 open house - she went to all 11 houses on campus. Very overwhelmed. Liked orange, red, yellow, blue
Day 3-4 First rounds - some girls in red remembered her - felt hopful still liked them best. Had a difficult time at indigo. She felt very out of place and ignored. She ranked the houses:
orange, red, blue, yellow, black, gray, white, green, brown, violet, brown
Day 5-6 second rounds: Girls could be invited back to a max of 6 houses. My daughter was upset - she only got 4 bids back. (personally I thought that was great - other gilrs in her group got 6 but some only 2)
Here's the bids she got:
violet, white, gray, black
her ranking: black, white, gray, violet
Perf night! - Nervous all day- seriously thought she wouldn't get any bids. Lo and behold she got three!
bid from: white, black, violet (thrilled to get a bid from black -fave right now, white - really likes, violet - not sure says girls are nice she'll see how tonight goes)
So that's the story for now. Tommrow is bid day. I'm pulling for black or white. (Although I truly believe violet really, really likes her)
fingers are crossed! Her school does have quota additons so I'm hopful that she won't get "the call"
