Pref
I’ll just put the rest on here since it’s all over now and I don’t want to torture you all any more than necessary.
I only got one invite for prefs. I was invited back to Monkey Bars. This was somewhat disconcerting since just about everyone was invited back to 2 houses, but I was trying to keep in mind that each girl at the end can only join one sorority anyways, so one was all I really needed. I got ready.
Now, I recently injured my arm and up until this point I had been in a sling, but for tonight I was out of the sling but had this horrible medical tape all over my arm. There were no dresses that would cover it up, so I picked the one I felt most confident in and decided that it shouldn’t matter. I arrived, we lined up and walked to Monkey Bars.
This was the last party of the night , and while it was my first, it was everyone else in my groups second. From reading the posts here at GC I wasn’t surprised when I heard singing as they opened the doors, but I was definitely impressed with their singing abilities. There was a flower handed to each PNM as we walked in and we went with an active to the bigger room to move them all into a beautiful vase in the center then we all stood in a circle. Then they each said a brief statement about what being a Monkey Bar was. It was beautiful. Then we had chat time. It was great. I had the most comfortable conversation, and when girls switched in and out it felt perfect. I knew that this was my home, and really hoped that tonight went well. They gave us themed dessert which was delicious, and then one of the officers read a beautiful poem. We chatted some more and then the president took us all upstairs and talked to us a bit about what it meant to her, and when we came downstairs the girls were all holding candles and singing again. I left feeling sure that I would be happy as a sister of Monkey bars. I signed my pref card, and called it a night.
