As I walked to Serena, I remembered what the group leader said before we got our schedule (I wasn't totally paying attention to her since I was so worried about my schedule). She told us, If we made it this far that the houses that are on our schedules really want us to be sisters. So it was kind of our decision where we wanted to be. I was happy to hear that and I decided to make sure serena know that I loved them (i had been very low key to them.... like when they would tell me that Jessie was saying amazing things about me, I was like "awwwww she is so cool.".... I didnt want to make myself look like a phsyco and be like "YAYAYAYAYAY I love her!!!!".... so i kept it very low key)
Serena- I got to the door very excited. I hung out with the PNM's (pledge sisters?
) The doors opened and serena came out singing. It was beautiful. One by one, each active called a PNM and said something special about them. THEN JESSIE CAME DOWN..... ANDDDDD
CALLED MY NAMEEE!!!!!
she said " I do not think I laughed as much as I ever have then when I was with this lady. She is absolutely hilarious and I am proud to see her today"
We walked in and she asked how I was doing. I said I was so happy to be at Serena and that I was so nervous all morning. She seated me next to a girl I had met from day 1. I talked to her about how much I adored the girls at Serena. I told her that I loved the house and that they were my number one choice. I asked her for her time during recruitment and She said she loved serena so much that she actually suicided serena. I told her about how the group leaders really wanted us to rank all the houses we got on our list. She said that it is true-- that you should, but the choice is the PNM's. Then I told her about the hot guy that walked by my apartment every morning and how I wanted to take him to one of the sorority events (date party/formal). We laughed. Jessie walked back to us and switched. I decided I want to have a more serious conversation with her since our last conversation was so funny and light-hearted. We talked about how we both had recently broke up with our boyfriends from back home. I told her that it sucked going on facebook and myspace because I he had one and it was hard to not go on his page to see what he has been up to. She understood and just told me that it was hard, but that it gets easier. We heard a bell which cued everyone to go to this one room for a speech. When it was done, I met back with Jessie and we had that awkward "we are walking to the door, but it is too loud to talk so have random short talk" conversation. I left and felt more closer to this group of girls than ever.
Marissa- Still stunned by Serena, I walked to Marissa. I didnt really make an effort to talk to the PNM's. The party started and they didnt call us out individually and say anythin special. We didnt even get matched up with ppl that we met before! it was ust like any other rush party. I was not very happy with that. After I got seated, I sat and just listened to the girl I was sitting with. She asked me how I liked recruitment, and i blurted it out "I have loved recruitment, but I am glad it is comming to an end. So many nerves man!!! I am just glad that I found my home. You know how everyone's been saying that you'll get that feeling when you find it? they arent kidding! I loved Serena the second I went in. I definitely cannot wait for tomorro." She was so taken back. I knew she would be. So I decided to ask her about her recruitment story and then just sit. At the end of her story she said "I have head about you from so many girls and we really like you." In my head i thought-- which girls?!??! I can't think of one that i even remember other than the girl that my friend from back home was with. But I decided not to say that. I just nodded. After she said that, We just kind of sat around and looked around. Luckily the bell sounded and we heard a speech. I looked around at the beautiful PNM's and thought, they are going to have a really good pledge class. walked out.
I sat in a room and tried to figure out if I should suicide or list them both. my group leader told me that it was best to list them both. She told me that in a wierd way it makes my chances of getting into Serena better (i.e. if I am not in serena's bid list--and i suicided-- that I would automatically be dropped from recruitment. If i list them both and if serena didnt get all the girls from their bid list, they will work from their other list and I could only be on the other list if I list all the houses. I will clarify if you guys need)
Because of this I wrote
1) Serena
2) Marissa
I went to bed confident and amazed. Soon I will be wearing these gorgeous letters that I SOOOOO adore!
