After Bid Day
Bid day was a Sunday, and Monday we resumed classes for the semester. I was in a lot of upperclassman classes because I tested out of most base science, math, and english courses required by my major.
I swear every sorority girl on campus sported letters for the entire week. The Rho Chi I was closest with (we had 2 per Rho Chi group) texted me a bunch during the week to check up on me and to let me know that no groups would be participating in COB unless a significant amount of NMs dropped. It wasn't the news I was hoping for.
I ran into several of the actives who rushed me during the week. The Maine who I liked so much during tours ran up to me, gave me a hug and asked where I ended up. I told her that I had been released and she looked perplexed and said that Maine didn't cut me and that she was planning on prefing me. I thought maybe she was just trying to cheer me up? But it was a strange interaction.
I didn't take much of our talk to heart until I ran into a Texas in my chem class. She greeted me, asked how I was, and asked why I ended up withdrawing from rush? Again, I explained the situation as delicately as possible.
I called my mom when I was through for the day and told her about the actives I ran into. She was also confused by it and totally felt for me and how hard this all was.
