Jessica IMed me one night telling me that the next day was the last day to meet the girls for the semester, and she really wanted me to come.

I had no classes, but agreed, somewhat hesitantly, to meet her at school to go. So I met her and we walked to SUBO (the Student Union Building) were Sprite reserved a room. There were already about 20 people in the small room, looking back I'd say about 8-9 PNMs and the rest were sisters. Some of them (the majority of them I think) already met the sisters and had attended previous events). After telling us a little about Sprite, a bag of Skittles was passed around and we each took some. Then we went around the table and for every Skittle we had in our hand we had to tell them something about ourself. This lead to more talking and conversations on things that we said. There was one sophomore (if memory serves me correctly) and the rest of us were freshman.

Then we were able to ask them any questions we had about Sprite and they showed us some photo albums.

At the end of the two hours, we were told that we would be getting a call by the end of the next night to let us know if we received a bid or not.

Buttonz - is your fall rush informal, as in it runs like COB?

The locals only do COB type rush, while the NPC's do formal in the fall and COB in the spring.

I guess it's safe to say that Sprite is a local, and not a national.

A-ha. Okay, now that makes sense. I was a bit confused too. Oh, and we know you didn't go Sprite or that would have been the end of your story.

Anxious to hear more!

The next night I got a call from Jessica, letting me know that I have received a bid and if I wanted to take it, I should go ahead and be at Eva's house Saturday night.

I went to Eva's dressed nicely and I was ready to meet my future sisters. There were seven of us in the room, and they told us they will wait a few more minutes to see if the other two girls they were waiting for were going to show up. No one else showed up, so the seven of us were pinned.

We also found out our bigs that night. My big was Eva (the sister whose house we were at). I was glad, because we had a lot in common.

Within two weeks, one girl depledged. Two weeks later, I was ready to depledged. All of my pledge sisters and my pledge mothers (that is what they were called) begged me not to drop.
