I am a firm believer of sleeping on things. So I wanted to give it a day to sink in and decide whether or not I would take the bid. I thought that night that I just might...but the next day I was sure I wouldn't. I rather be sure than cut my losses before they are a loss.

I would be happy to keep you all up to date on how things go with OPhiA. We had 3 days rush...in which we learned about the group, took part in a service project, and played sisterhood strengthening games. I really really feel at home with this group. Instead of being weirded out that I was married, they all congratulated me and demanded to see a picture of my hottie of a husband. Haha.

Tomorrow are interviews. I am sure it will go well. But I will keep you updated.

I am in love with OPhiA!

It sounds as if this is a good fit for you.... isn't that the goal? It sounds like you are happy. Congratulations. I look forward to hearing more.

Congratulations! NPC sorority life is not for everyone. You realized that for yourself and have found somewhere that IS for you, which is the most important thing.

YAY OPhiA!! I'd like to know how that goes for you too! Good Luck!

I can speak from experience that NAU's OPA chapter is awesome!

OMG!! I have been addicted to your thread since you started writing it and when I read that you got cut from pie and cake, I was thinking "I wonder if she knows about the OPhiA chapter at NAU...." I did a little happy dance in my chair when I read that you had attended their recruitment events.

Please let us know how it turns out! I know some active sisters at the NAU chapter and they are wonderful!

I have some unfortunate news, but hopefully it doesn't end badly.
The lovely ladies of Omega Phi Alpha have been completely overwhelmed this semester. Last night was interviews and they had a total of 26 girls show up! They thought that they would be able to take us all, but unfortunately we all got emails this morning asking us to let them know if we are absolutely sure about joining OPhiA, if any of us would prefer to wait until the Spring, etc. I emailed them back and let them know that I want to be an OPhiA sister as soon as possible and that I also felt that I would be a wonderful asset to the group as well as they be a wonderful asset to me. From the email, it looks like we won't know if we have received bids or not until Wednesday.
Keep your fingers crossed for me!!!
