Here are a couple things to keep in mind. You have options ahead of you, including going through again next year. If you think you are not outstanding enough (your grade point probably wasn't the problem) that is something you can easily work on this year. Get involved on campus and make friends! Really go out of your way to make lots of friends. And yawning, by the way, is a stress thing, not just fatigue. If you get your conversation skills up to snuff you probably won't yawn as much, even if you're tired, because you'll be more comfortable.

Of course I can't judge your appearance, but if you do want to try again next year, I would pay close attention this year to how you look in class, out shopping, etc. Even if you're not the prettiest girl on the block, if you always look put together you will make a positive impression.

And make sure you keep those grades up! Freshman year can be a real killer to the grades if you're not careful. But joining study groups is not only helpful to your grades, it's helpful to friendship building and conversation skills.

And if it works out for you to join the AEPhi colony, that's great too! I wish you the best of luck.
