i did get my first choice, but my story isn't exciting. i went to one pref...i knew this was the house for me from day 1, etc. plus there were only 4 groups on campus.
i did have 3 sisters who did not get their first choice. phi mu was 2nd. one of the girls in my phi class really wanted axo, but didn't get a bid. she spent the whole bid day crying. sisters were trying to make her feel better and the rest of her phi class did as well. by the end of the day, she realized that she was with the group that she really belonged to. she ended up really enjoying her collegiate years.
the following year, there were two phis who didn't get their first choice. one was a phi mu legacy and she had been quite torn between phi mu and axo throughout the whole week. the first hour or so of bid day was really tough for her, but she knew so many of us really and truly wanted her to be there, plus her two roomies were also phis.....and she realized how excited her sister was going to be....so she pulled it together and had a blast. she became a very dedicated and wonderful sister!!! now, she is an advisor for a different chapter! hurray!
the third person who i know didn't get her first choice really didn't think to much about it. she was disappointed at first, but she knew that she wouldn't have been happy in that other group. she also became a very dedicated sister and is still involved even after graduation!
