I had no desire to be associated with Greeks. I was a high school nerd, very unpopular and the school had illegal high school sororities. I hated everything about them and had no intentions of subjecting myself to that kind of humiliation in college. When the information on rush came I immediately deposited it in the circular file. At the time, my mother and I could not say more than 1 1/2 civil words to each other before she would criticize me and put me down. One day, she pulled her usual garbage and I decided to go through rush since that meant I could move out of the house a week early. In order to move into the dorms early, youo had to sign up for rush and attend the first day parties. I had decided I would go through the first day and then immediately drop and go to the beach every day. The first house I went to on the first day was KD. I thought the girls were really nice and enjoyed it. Figured every house would be the same. Still went with the attitude I was dropping at the end of the day. By the end of the day, I really liked KD more than any other house and decided I would stay in until KD dropped me. After preference night parties, I called home and asked if I could break my dorm contract if I got a bid from KD the next day. Mom was shocked that I was still rushing-- so was I. Next day, I opened my bid and found KD wanted me. Stayed in through a semester of pledging (as you can see I am dating myself), was initiated, lived in the house all 4 years, and am now rather active in my AA.
