Daughter's initiation

[BBelleADPi]

Thanks to all, and Honey, of course, I don't mind!

As a slight hijack to my own thread, something else this chapter did that I thought was cute was the way that they did their Big Sis Discovery. It was a scavenger hunt all over the campus. At the end of the hunt their big sisters and the rest of the chapter were waiting to receive them, with baskets overflowing with gifts with the sorority letters. (My daughter was overwhelmed w/ what all they received: sweat pants, boxer shorts, flip flops, slippers, key chains, sweatshirts, mugs, picture frames, etc.)

Anyway, a little "twist" that the sisters did was to deliberately pad their Facebook profiles with incorrect pieces of information about themselves, done to fool the pledges, whom they knew would be trying to figure out who their big sisters might be. (Each pledge was able to list four or five girls they would like as their "big." The girls were then given a few facts about their big sister so that they could make up a gift basket to present to her on Big Sis Discovery night.) Well, it worked! My daughter said that each girl in her pledge class went running up to the girl that they just "knew" was their big sister! There was much hugging, jumping up and down, etc, and then the sisters gave the pledges their new jerseys-on the back were the words "Blank's little". At that point the girls realized who their new big sisters really were! My daughter said that the looks on everyone's faces was just priceless. Needless to say, there was much running around to find their real big sisters in the crowd, hugging, etc. She kept me on the phone the next day for thirty minutes, describing the whole evening in detail, from finding each clue with a puzzle piece, to the reveal. Cute, cute, cute! She said her class definitely wants to do that to their little sisters next year!
