Bid Day
(Also known as the first day of class? Who thought this was a good idea?)
As the day wears on, I get really, really, really nervous. I just want Ramona. I don’t want another huge disappointment. Please don’t let me open that envelope and see Corduroy. I don’t know what I’ll do and I really don’t want to go through another blow like that again. Why is this so hard for me?
My floor is crazy with girls running around in their white dresses. I wish I was as excited as everyone else is. We all get herded into the auditorium and after the Gamma Chi reveals (mine was a Tri Delt) we are given our bids and…..
Ramona!!!
I’m happy. Or relieved. Or something, but definitely not crying!!! Maybe not crazy excited, but happy enough. I’m glad I didn’t drop out. I’m glad I stayed open minded and listened to my own thoughts and not other people’s and I’m really glad that I had my mom to talk to.
Oh – wait – I bet you want to know that Ramona is Alpha Gamma Delta!!!
