alright alright I'm going to give an update, but don't get too excited it's not quite over yet.
Everyone walks into the union to rank the 1 and 2 choices. My RC and I talk for awhile... well really I guess I more cried. This is never how I (or really I think how anyone) dreams rush will turn out. She called over some other girl who was like in charge of rush, and I guess on hand for girls like me who clearly were having a tough time. They encouraged me that it wasn't about what house I was in, it was about being Greek. So eventually after about an hour I went to the room where we were going to list the 1 and 2 choices. I'm standing in line waiting and waiting, and I can't do it. I can't wait in line to rank my number one choice and number two choice when I wasn't in love with them. So I left. No first choice, no second choice, I guess this would be dropping out? I'm not sure but I just walked out.
If I thought today was hard, man tomorrow (bid day) was even worse. I woke up feeling okay, got dressed and went downstairs to go to my classes and get on with my life. There are suddenly girls everywhere wearing the bid day shirt for the sorority they were in. Those rushing find out where they got a bid in the afternoon, so these were just actives. Everywhere I turned someone was wearing a shirt, they were EVERYWHERE. No escaping it. My day was going terrible, not only was I still beating myself up about why I didn't get any of my top 4 choices, but it was just like rubbing salt in my wound seeing the girls everywhere. I saw my RC on the bus and just avoided her like she was the plague. So I got back to my room and was feeling really shitty.
Then my phone rings and it's the director of Greek Life. I'm freaking out, like oh no I'm in trouble for not ranking 1 and 2, thinking of all the things that I could be in trouble for, why was this guy calling me! So he explains how he knows I didn't rank but Moonlit path wants to offer me a bid still, and if I want to accept to come to bid day like any other student and I could have it.
So I sit down and think about what to do - - -
