My story starts with me wanting to have nothing to do with greek life. I had been talking to my soon to be first roommate on the phone and she mentioned that she was going to go through formal recruitment. My first thought was oh no I am moving in with a ditzy sorority chick. Well as soon as I got to actually meet her in person I found out I was completely wrong. So she went through rush, and joined AOII, and I saw how much fun she was having. So then I saw a sign that ADPi was having an event that friday night, being a few weeks into the school year. Well due to the fact that I am in a male dominated major, am from out of state, and in general hung out with more guys then girls I decided it wouldnt be a bad thing to try. So I went to ADPi's event. Well it turns out it was a kareoke (very much spelled wrong) night. It was loads of fun, and the girls ability to make total fools out of themselves was just where i knew I could fit in. Well that weekend there were a bunch of the international officers there, so I actually had an interview type thing with them on saturday. That day I was also shown around the adpi wing (at Northern Arizona University all 7 sororities and 12 of the 14 fraternities all live in on res. hall). Well on sunday I received a bid from ADPi and I excepted. The funny part is that my mom and my sister were both in sororities in college, but I am nothing like them. So when I called my parents and said I had excepted a bid to adpi they were in a bit of shock, till they got to know my sorority sisters and realzied how perfect it was for me. By sunday night I went through alpha ceremony (new member ceremony). From that point on ADPi has been a large part of my life.
