She couldn't reach her Rho X to talk about it. It just all came tumbling down at once and she couldn't compose herself in time to get her head around that fact that she needed to quickly get across campus, get completely dressed in cocktail attire, get herself into a happy frame of mind and get back across campus to 2 prefs where she really didn't know anyone. I think even for this kid it was just too much to ask. That is part of the sadness, because if she could have made it over to those houses it might have worked out, she knows it, I know it and you all know it. She just couldn't do it with how she was feeling.
So I reached out on this site to see if I could find some comfort among sisters that might know what it might feel like.

So...wait. Did she not attend the pref parties because she was bummed out about getting cut from the play or because she didn't get her top choice? Earlier, it sounded as if she didn't ger her "top tier" choice, and now you are saying it is because she was upset about not getting a part in the play.
From what you said earlier, it sounds as if she didn't get her top choices. End of story. It is sad she didn't give those 2 chapters a chance because they must have really liked her enough to invite her back.
