If YOU were in charge

i definitely agree with the NM period going by so quickly. we didn't bond much (there were 38 girls in my pledge class!), besides the retreat we had. before we knew it, it was initiation time. i'm not complaining since i was able to move into the house as a pledge since i was a sophomore & it was nice to not feel that separation anymore from the initiated members.

it's crazy to think that my mom was given a bid in the spring & not initiated until october!

Ahhh, the olden days! I had to wait from August to February before I was initiated (had to make the grades, too). The wait certainly increased my anticipation and curiosity and maybe made "finding out the secrets" more significant since it was such a long-awaited and hard-won privilege.
