A sad day

Hi there folks. I would be posting my recruitment story on Monday, but unfortunately my recruitment got cut short since I was once again released from recruitment like I was three years before when I did recruitment the first time. Today is Preference Day at my school, and yesterday for Sisterhood Day, I was only invited back to one sorority, ironically like on Sisterhood Day three years ago. It was the exact same sorority that invited me for Sisterhood Day and released me for Preference Day, which was Led Zeppelin. Even the newest sorority at my school, Van Halen, dropped me after Philanthropy Day. When I saw that I only had one sorority to go back to yesterday instead of four, I thought that I should make the best of it, and try to impress them, which apparently I didn't do enough. I'm upset, and I feel like I have been rejected, which I do not cope with very well. Although, I do understand that it could have been the number of women who went through recruitment at my school this year. My school's Greek Life had their biggest recruitment ever this year. Over 400 women went into recruitment at my school. I'm not sure if it would be appropriate to post my story now that I've been dropped, but if many of you want to hear it, I'll post the two days of recruitment that I did participate in. I was also wondering why is it that the sororities can't tell the PNMs why they were dropped. Why is everything so secretive? I'm gathering it is because it is the way they've been since they started doing it. I can't really talk to anyone that I know about it since many of my friends aren't even in NPC sororities. I've tried to talk to my mom about it too, but she doesn't quite understand it, and keeps thinking that I was dropped since I'm 6 credits away from being a senior since a friend's mother mentioned that my friend's sister, who was actually in a professional fraternity, said that many sororities do not invite those who are seniors. I may or may not try again in the Spring. If there are sororities that are doing informal in the Spring, I'll make a go for it. If not, then, I probably will have lost my chance at being in a sorority since I have plans to graduate next Fall. My only saving grace would be if another chapter colonized at my school.
