BID DAY!

Bid Day morning I was so nervous I felt sick! I wore a cute shirt (with white bra and tank underneath as directed) and jean capri’s. Hair and makeup were fixed and I was ready to go. Andrea, Krystle and I went together. We were so nervous that we were being quite silly in the car, screaming songs at the top of our lungs. Krystle was kind of a rebel girl and she was DONE with the Rush thing at this point. She wanted to join but she was sick of smiling and fake conversations so she was quite amusing by Bid Day. Andrea was so dramatic that she was alternating between screaming with excitement and crying in fear. I wanted to smack her but I didn’t.

We got the designated location and the three of us sat together. We were given our bid cards in random order so I got mine first, then Krystle, then Andrea. We waited until all three of us got them before we opened them. Around us there were girls jumping around and screaming from excitement and other girls SOBBING because they didn’t get their top choice. I felt sick to my stomach as we opened our cards.

Together we counted, 1-2-3

ANDREA!!!

KRYSTLE!!!

We ran over to the President and the VPR and they gave us cute black Harley inspired T-shirts and turtle nametags! We waited on the rest of our pledge class and then we went to the gymnasium where all the chapters were eating lunch together and taking pictures, waiting for the Rho Chi reveal. Why they did this I have no idea, it was really not a good idea.

After that we went back to the house where we got our bid day baskets! We got DZ scrubs, cup, pen, notepad, pencil and key chain in a cute tub. We went and took pictures at the park and hung out with our new sisters until the end of bid day (around 5-6 bid day ended and we had a 24 hour silence period between the NM and the chapter members)
