Soliloquy's Fall 2007 recruitment

This girl did everything possible to help calm my fears, and was one of the key reasons why I decided to rush. She was the epitome of a sorority woman and it breaks my heart that I won't be able to see her again.

I cannot imagine how hard it will be for her sisters during recruitment when they do the slideshow and read senior letters. If I make it that far in that particular house, I will be balling with the rest of the girls.

I do not care if this post makes it obvious where I go to school, or who I am. I just know that this has deeply affected my views on recruitment and life as a whole. You really do not know if today will be your last day on Earth. So please, try to make each day count. <3

My chapter had a (founding) sister die just shortly before I joined. It's never easy for the sisters, but they did all tell stories about her. We still do a memorial walk for her and her foundation set up by her parents. No matter what happens as far as joining a sorority, I'm sure her sisters will be glad to know one more person who understands their pain.

I, too , am sorry for the tragic loss of this enthusiastic sister. I hope you can be inspired by her, and go through rush knowing that you are looking to be a part of something that obviously meant a great deal to her.
