At UNLV, everyone meets in the student union in the ball room first everyday of recruitment. On bid day it is no diffrent. At the time (1999) they did garunteed bidding so I knew I would get one of my three choices. I was pretty certian I would be happy in Adpi or my second choice but I wasn't sure about my third the girls were nice but they just weren't "me". So when I arrived at the ball room I was pretty nervous, and I was thinking I would end up in my second choice because they had just colonized the year before and were most in need of new members. I held my bid card, steeling myself for the dissapointment and having to face the Adpi's who I had become friends with, and when I opened it the first thing I saw was a Crest headed with a roaring lion. I heaved a sigh of relief and kind of went yess!! internally. Then the rho chi's revealed themselves and my rho chi Abbey (whom I had been convinced was a Delta Zeta because she was blonde) led me and the rest of the new alphas across the hall to a meeting room where all of my new sisters waited with presents. Then we all dressed in our shiny new bid day shirts and went to take pictures by "the flashlight" (the requisite celebrating following, of course) and the rest is history.
