crying on Bid Day

[PhoenixAzul]

I know firsthand about crying. I felt bad, but due to my inability to check voicemail messages on my room phone, I missed the PX call about me not having final party bids. So I showed up to the meeting and they had to pull me aside and explain it, and I got really upset. I did my preference signing the friday before everyone else did theirs.So I spent a weekend being all smiles and pats on the back for everyone while they went to their finals. Pref day came, got a call saying no-bid...not a big deal, kinda resigned. But then on Monday (pref signing is on a sunday, NM night is a monday) I got a call from the director of Greek Life saying that my no. 1 choice offered me a bid, and that I could have it if I still wanted. This of course inspired a lot of yelling/cheering/crying for me. When I picked up the bid, I found my neighbor/new sister and we started singing "No eating here tonight, no eating here tonight you're on a diet" from Finding Nemo (don't ask). But still, I don't regret my choice to accept to this day.
