Ha, yeah, 180 for sure.
OK, back to business. I think I'm going to combine Christmas break + first night of recruitment.
So I finished first term freshman year with a 3.924 GPA. I was thrilled because I knew that would be good for recruitment, and I was nowhere near the cutoff that prevented you from rushing.
Over Christmas, my mom and I went out and bought outfits for recruitment. My dad was kind of opposed to me pledging at that point and said I would have to pay my dues myself (he later reneged on this and loved my sorority and said it was a really good decision for me to join). Also, a friend came to visit. 20something Roommate's winter formal date, one of our close guy friends who wanted to pledge MOR/Central, came to visit me. He lived far away but was in my state for the holidays. We went to see Ali, the Will Smith movie, and he spent the night at my place. I realized that although my roommate had been interested in him, we had a lot more chemistry than she and he ever did. Nothing happened at that visit but I was beginning to get really interested in him. It was a bit awkward though, and I realized that at the time, because my ex-boyfriend (the 2-month MOR/Central boyfriend who dumped me for not having sex with him) went to his high school and was pretty much his "in" at MOR/Central.
So I go back a few days early for recruitment so I can attend the final recruitment orientation. It was *so cold* that week and snowing! eep. I remember I went to a local restaurant the night recruitment started with a bunch of the Girls from Across the Street. We talked more openly together than we ever had before about how we all desperately wanted to join Peyton. I felt so warm and fuzzy and had a strong bond with them. One of them, though, did insist that she wanted to join Haley or nothing and we thought that was so weird.
My roommate and I had made a secret pact to join together no matter what. We knew that 20something Hallmate would probably not get Peyton as she had not been to many parties at all first term. We also knew that 20something Floormate was probably less likely than us to get Peyton. So we decided that if we got Peyton and they didn't, we would join. If one of the roommates got cut from Peyton, we would both go Haley.
The plot thickens.....
BRB....
ETA: Actually, I won't BRB because I have some business to attend to that I just got a phone call about. So I'll post about Night 1 tomorrow.
