Day Three Preference Day:
I didn't sleep well this night. I was so nervous. I ended up getting up pretty early and catching up on some t.v shows that people had always said were good. I kept my phone with me all morning even when I go to take a shower. By ten o'clock, my nerves were settling down but I still was a bit on edge. I was starting to think about drying my hair to get ready and then it happens. My phone starts to ring and I see that it is from my Rho Gamma. I answer already knowing what she is going to say. Her words are just confirmation. "I am sorry but unfortunately you weren't asked back to either of the sororities. Do you have any questions? Try and get involved in other things around campus." The end. I think my heart broke a little. This was something that I had been looking forward to for a while and I could picture myself at home with these girls. I couldn't think about it. I called a friend and talked to them about it a little and then I threw myself into other things to keep myself busy. I remember wishing that I had work that day so I could go do something to take my mind off of it. It's been a couple days now and I am feeling better for the most part, just disappointed. I know that most, if not all, of the sororities made quota which is awesome for the campus Greek life but I am still hoping that one of my favorite chapters does informal recruitment in spring. Until then, I actually do have a couple clubs that I want to join that are based around my major.
Overall though, I did have a good time during recruitment and hope that there is another chance for me to become a part the Greek community on campus.
