My big sis in my local, Alpha Gamma Gamma:
After formal rush had come and gone, and I had dropped out of recruitment, I was just pretty much doing my thing all the time....I went to a few date parties with guys I had met, hung out with the girls on my floor etc. At Rosh Hashannah services, I was sitting down next to the girl who would later be my big. She starts talking to me, and I find out that she has the same birthday as me, so I got really excited. When she asked me if I was in a sorority, I told her I had rushed but had dropped out. So she wrote down her number on a piece of paper with instructions about AGG's rush, which was that next week. So I went into rush, and never had I felt so happy. All the girls were nice, and I felt like I could really be myself...and I definitely was....dancing around, smiling, really animated. Anyhow, when it came time for Big/Lil, I put her first on my list, and she put me first on hers. During BS/LS revealing week though, she really tried to trick me. Every day I would find a new gift, and was really excited, and one day she called my cell phone while I was in my friends dorm. I answered, all excited about my gift that day kind of knowing it was her, and told her about it. And she told me that the sweatshirt she got her little was different. I was crushed!!! I wanted to cry, but I didn't. I still sort of thought it was her. But when Big/Lil Revealing came around and she was my big sis, I was overjoyed!!!!!!
My Local sorority, AGG's Little:
Right before fall rush, I had restricted my calories down to about 600 or so a day. The night after the first day of rush (which I couldnt go to because I had class), I ended up going delerious because I was so starved for food. Anyhow, my best friend at the time and the building Residential Coordinator, took me to the hospital, where I was admitted for about a week, getting me back on track with regular meals, medicating me and such. So I missed rush, bid day, everything. When I got back for the first monday dinner, the first girl that I talked to was Carrerra. She was cute, really sweet, and we had a good conversation. When it came time to rank little sis's, she was my number one choice!! I was so excited when I got her!!! Even though she's 23, and I'm only 20, she's the sweetest little sis!!!
Kappa Delta, my big sis:
After the first day of rush, I was coming out of my last house, when I saw Tory at the Kappa Delta booth. I ran up to her and smiled and wanted to hug her, but we were afraid of a rush infraction because it was after the designated time so she couldn't. (I had known Tory in high school). The next day at rush, I was so excited that I came up and hugged her. I still didn't get to talk to her for long because she was with another girl. At every rush party we would make a point to hug and smile, until preference where I finally got to talk to her. I felt so at home and comftorable, it was awesome. Anyhow.....she's my big sis!!!
