Hello everyone!
I have been reading up everything you lovely ladies (and gentlemen) have had to say on GC for several months now in preparation for my recruitment which is coming up in just a few days now and I can not even tell you how excited I am!!! I am a freshman at a small school where we have five chapters, all of which I hear are AMAZING so I am really thrilled about joining any chapter on campus. Our recruitment officially begins this upcoming Wednesday with Bid Day being Sunday. The first night is just a general orientation. Round One is Thursday where we meet the chapter and tour the houses, Round Two is off campus at different restaurants for Philanthropy night and a fun appetizer dinner, and Round Three is Preference. I have decided (even though I am going to keep personal details scant) that I will hold off on posting my entire story until after rush has finished. I want to make it as exciting as I can so I will post once a night after that as if it were live
I might be a little too much of a nerd...
Going into rush that is delayed a month after everyone has gotten on campus and living at a small school, it is hard to not have picked up on some of the traits that define each chapter. Fortunately, everything I have experienced with each group has been GREAT and I haven't observed anything negative so far.
I am really bad at being creative, so I just decided to develop my code names as my five favorite TV shows (most of these are off air now
)
Lost- This chapter is known to be very academic in nature, but still a lot of fun. I know a few girls from this group who are absolutely amazing to hang out with.
That 70s Show- I really really like this house so far. The girls seem very well rounded and even though there are no "tiers" at this school, this chapter is well known as the most "put together" one. I know two girls who spend all their time talking about this house and how they really want to get a bid from them.
Friends- This chapter has gotten a reputation of being partiers, but of the ones I have met so far, I think they seem like fun, sweet girls. I have a good friend who is set on this house and also has a sister who is a senior in the chapter.
House- This chapter is the one I know least about. I haven't met very many of these girls and they haven't really reached out to me at the events we have had so far like the other girls have. Something I do like is that they don't have much of an overall "identity" that defines each of the girls. Every time I find out about a girl I know being in this chapter, I am always surprised at how different each one is.
Big Bang Theory- This chapter is up-and-coming at our school but was able to get a pretty big pledge class last year. They have been really strong at every greek-sponsored event and have had the cutest shirts with really clever things on them!!
So that's basically the scoop on everything so far. I just am excited because as of right now I can see myself anywhere, so I just hope I am able to get a bid from any sorority! I have recs to
Friends and
That 70s Show and I am a legacy to
Lost. I am praying I can get a bid to the place that is right for me!
Just as a side note, I will not be revealing the code or the school I attend even after recruitment on this thread. You may PM me if you really want to know. I'm sorry
I'm not trying to be a prude but I just would prefer to be annoymous.
