the party went badly

Before I got ready I looked at a pamplet we got about the sorority and I wrote out some questions just about the sorority to ask because I genuinly cared to know the answers.

My friends styled my hair. They actually curled it and pinned my front bangs really neatly, so I looked very nice. I wore a black dress that has two flowers on it that flows to my knees and the back neck is flowable (if that makes sense). I appeared as if I took some time and energy into my oufit. I think that shows dedication and is a nice thing to do when you are presenting yourself. I felt confident when I walked into the party then it went awry.

Last year when I walked in, the active grabbed me and another PNM. The PNM answered questions for me. She actually told the active what year in school I was and where I lived at school and away from school and she didn't even know me! I didn't get to talk at all last year, and well it happened again.

I walked in and the actives on the right and left did not grab me and I saw a active with another PNM grab me. The active sat in front of her so I felt like an oddball out already. The PNM talked about russian language for oh 10 minutes! I don't take russian so therefore I had nothing to say. The active finally asked me if I had taken a foreign language and I said I took french for 6 years but stopped this year because I was too far that I didn't want to minor and she was like oh ok. End of conversation. I tried to ask my sorority specific questions and well those didn't go too well.

As I looked around the room I noticed how many one on one conversations were going on. I was fortunate to be one of the 4 two person groups. Were there plenty of actives standing around? Yup, better believe it.

So, I'd be real surprised if they'd be interested in boring old me.
