Bid Day:
AOEforme Jr. and the four girls from her hall headed down to MU theatre. She waved good-bye to her friends and went to pick up her card.
At 12:50, she was allowed to rip open the card, which read:
"The Omicron Chapter of Alpha Omega Epsilon formally invites AOEforme Jr. to a candidacy period in
Alpha Omega Epsilon Sorority."
My sister is now my sister! I am very, very excited!
As for the other girls:
Sarah ended up with a bid to Michigan, aka
Gamma Phi Beta, and is apparently thrilled.
Addie happily accepted a bid to Michigan State or
Kappa Alpha Theta, and loves it. She has a big new member class (51 girls!) and is enjoying it. She was, however, a little sad she did not get a bid to Iowa. She really enjoyed them and had a hard time choosing between the two.
As for the four girls on her floor: two got bids to
Alpha Phi, one to
Kappa Alpha Theta, and a third to
Kappa Kappa Gamma.
And that's the ending of a happy recruitment story. Everyone we were following got bids and I ended up with my sister as my sister!
She is thrilled to be an Alpha Ep candidate and adores her candidate class. We had so much fun on Bid Day. Among the craziness of the honking horns, cheers, screaming girls, and confetti, she asked me a quick question. "What was that quote you and Lisa kept telling me?"
"Do you mean 'You'll end up where you are meant to'?" I asked.
"Yes!" she replied, "You were right!"
-The End-
(Sorry for the delay in telling. I have two labs back to back on Tuesdays!)
ETA: A picture of their group. I'll add other pictures from Wisconsin's Bid Day to the Bid Day Pics thread.
