And so its finally PREF night! It was hard having to wait until 6-ish to find out which invites I got (I knew I got at least one because my rho gamma didn't call). Today was probably the most nervous I had been during the entire process. I got all dressed up and did my hair, but tried not to look over done. I decided that if I was only invited to stocking that I would drop out. A significant amount of girls had dropped out by now, probably a little more than half of my group was left. This was definitly the sadest day by far. So we got our invites and I only saw 2 names..my heart sunk. But then I read it and saw "Snow" and "Lights"! YAY! But where was stocking? Did they actually cut me?? Girls began crying all around me and many dropped out right then and there. That was hard to see...
So on to pref night...
Lights The ceremony at lights was absolutely beautiful. I was in awe! I was paired with a girl that I had never talked to before, but she was nice. She talked about how much lights meant to her and how stronly of a bond she feels with her sisters. She told me stories about their sisterhoods and different activities they did. I want to say that I loved this house on pref, but I just didn't. I really, really liked it...but I didn't love it. I left feeling like they really wanted me to be a lights and would love to have me in their house. I think if they offered me a bid, I would accept.
Snow When I saw snow on my list I was thrilled! I actually thought they dropped me, as opposed to stocking (*because our invites are individual pieces of paper with the sorority name on them and what time. My first one said "free time" so I, being pessimistic, assumed it was snow...not that I actually got their names confused.. sorry for the confusion*) Their ceremony was amazing. These girls love being snow! And I can really tell. They had their seniors get up and talk about their time in snow and what it meant to them. They told amazing stories about their sisterhood. I knew right then and there that I wanted to be a snow. I wanted to live in this house with these girls and be their sister. I left that night feeling amazing. I would be heartbroken if I didn't get a bid from them.
So after the final party we went to rank our houses and I ranked as follows
1. Snow
2. Lights
Bid day was the next day and our rho gammas were supposed to call us if we didn't get bids. I didn't sleep well that night at all!
