Fourth Day (Prefs):
I was asked back to all five and I chose not to return to Kappa Delta and Pi Beta Phi. I think I knew after day 1 that these were my favorite 3-so tonight was difficult.
AXO-They girls were all wearing red-they looked so warm. We ate "Dreamcake" and watched a slide show. I almost cried. Then they had a ceremony where many of the seniors talked about what the house had meant to them over the past few years. They sang Circle of Friends and Angels Among Us. Then they gave us a scarlet carnation and a pearl. On our way out we dropped the pearl into a fountain and made a wish and handed the carnation back to the girl. I cried when they sang Circle of Friends. When we were walking out the girl I was talking to said that she would really love to see me in her letters the next day.
KKG-The girls here all wore black-they looked very classy. We had cheesecake and watched a video. Then we had a ceremony-it was fairly similar to AXOs, different music. My girl told me that if I was there on Bid Day she was going to take another little even though she's a senior. They gave us an iris and my girl cried when she had to take it back.
ZTA-These girls all wore white. We ate cheesecake here too. We also watched a slide show. I almost lost it every time they showed pictures at all three houses (I guess I'm just sentimental). Then we had a ceremony were the girls all lit candles and they told us what the house meant to them. They handed each of us a candle and talked some more. Finally they told us that their circle was incomplete without each of us and that they hoped we would be back tomorrow to add our light to theirs-I bawled.
I went back and took longer than anyone else on my floor to rank my 3.
