Round 4 (Preference/Sisterhood)
I woke up this morning wondering how soon I would hear from my daughter about who her final 3 were (if she was so fortunate to get 3!). I know she would be very unhappy to lose Aspen and Curacao so I prayed (not really) that she would at least get these two. I had told her to make sure that as she went through the houses and found ones that she definitely wanted, to let them know it..
Finally at around 11:15 she texted me her invites for the day: Curacao, London and Tokyo. Since this was a text, I had no idea how she was feeling about this except probably disappointment at losing Aspen but happiness at keeping Curacao.
Here’s where it gets sticky, she has her heart set on Curacao and only Curacao. She liked the others but didn’t feel in her heart that she belonged with them. I encouraged her to consider them in a new light today and not to focus only on Curacao. I have a feeling that she is surrounded by disappointed friends today of which, she said, many have dropped out after getting their final 3. My daughter even mentioned that she may very well put only Curacao down on her bid list tonight. I’m really not sure what more to advise to her because she knows if she lists others and does not accept a bid she loses any options for a year. All I could say was to meet as many girls from the sororities today, have an open mind and feel blessed that she is still in the running because this is a very competitive year. She does have in the back of her mind that AOII is colonizing at FSU next year and has a special place in her heart for them since she is a legacy.
On a side note, I know for a fact that no matter what happens she has enjoyed the recruitment experience and loved making new friends.
I’ll be talking to her later to find out more. Fingers crossed!!!
