I am so excited! Gamma Phi has the cutest skit - I saw it on Saturday.

I have 22 pnms for whom I have written recs going through - good luck!

OMG, that is even bigger than my alum friends in the Austin area thought! Good luck to all the Aggie chapters as they welcome their new members this week. At least the weather isn't brutal this year.

I saw ADPi's skit on Saturday, and they did an awesome job. I wish all of my ADPi sisters, and all Aggie chapters, good luck during recruitment. Gig 'Em Aggie Greeks!!

The pnm's made their first preferences today, and I'm happy to report that my daughter said it took about 45 minutes to complete the process. I don't know if anyone remembers or not, but last year, lots of girls reported having to wait in line for 2 to 2.5 hours to make their preferences. Way to go A&M! Tomorrow is the first day of cuts. (fingers crossed)

She must have been closer to the front of the line. One of my friends said her daughter stood in line for 2 hours last night.

My D said it was about an hour and 15 minutes for her..

And at convocation Sunday Greek Life director told us number of girls going thru was 909... either way lots of girls and great news for Aggie Greek life.

Hmmm...you'd think they'd have a Facebook app for this by now.

It may have been 909 who showed up but it is a good number for them. I just hope it's up a bit from last year.

My daughter was toward the front of line and was only in line a half hour or less. That isn't bad at all. I imagine tonight with the later day the girls will be pretty tired when they finish the process.

My fingers are also crossed waiting to hear from my daughter.

could be.. I think I heard the number was up 100 from last year, not sure if that is correct or not.

The waiting to hear is the hardest part...

Are any mom's planning on going to bid day? I was thinking about going until I found out that parents wouldn't be able to see the girls open their bids.

My sister is rushing this year and she waited about 2 hrs.
