Unhappy

hey y'all...unfortunately, i AM missing recruitment. i went to orientation and was excited and ready to go...but a good friend of the family had a heart attack saturday night(he is ok now...) and i spent the night and next day with the kids so his wife could be at the hospital. i was just so tired and stressed out sunday(when rush began...) that i couldn't go through with it. i'm pretty disappointed with myself - i'm thinking maybe some higher being doesn't want me to be in a sorority! also, my sister's c-section got moved so even that isn't happening now. blah blah blah. i talked to a girl from greek affairs and she said COB after bid day is an option, even though it might not be as fruitful. but she put me on the list for that and gave me her cell phone number(she is the panhellenic vp of recruitment) and seems really helpful. she also seems to think that COB is a viable option. i talked to one of my friends who is going through rush right now and she is having such a great time! i guess for now it just wasn't meant for me though. i will keep y'all updated. so maybe i won't ever be greek, but i still want to thank y'all for everything, the advice and well-wishes, etc.

I'm really sorry to hear this. Very glad your family friend id OK though. You seem to be a very unselfish, giving person. Maybe a higher power is interceding and holding a special place "open" just for you. Please stay with us here on GC! If not as a Greek, as one we all have grown to care about!

From your posts, it is obvious that you are a truly unselfish and giving friend - the find of girl that any of us would love to have as a sister! Be true to yourself and know that things usually happen for a reason.

Aww....Moxie, I'm sorry you had to miss out after all. As everyone else has duly noted, you clearly are someone who cares about other people and wants to put them before yourself. First, you wanted to faithfully be at your sister's side during the birth of her first child. Then you selflessly looked after your friend's children while she went to be with her husband during a crisis moment.

You have no reason to be dissapointed in yourself! At the end of the day, you did what you felt was the right thing to do and that meant helping someone out in their time of need.

I don't know what the future holds for you as far as being in a sorority goes, but I hope you will come to appreciate what you have done for others.


.....Kelly

Aww, Moxie! Poor thing. After all that stress about your sister's situation. Well, we'll all keep our fingers crosssed about COB. And there is always Alumni Initiation! Good luck!
