in case you're reading this, stunnedgirl, i wont leave ya hanging! ha!
Next day was the third round, where we would be spending a longer time at each house, and doing philanthropy projects. Again, we could go back to a maximum of 6, and since I only had 5 at this point, I was hoping I would return to all 5. I was really nervous waiting to get my invites. I had loved Red Sox and Twins and knew I would accept a bid from either of the two (I was hoping that that this round and pref round would help me decide which one I would let better). As far as Reds, who were my new #3, I just didn’t feel at home. They had definitely improved in my opinion from the open house round, but there wasn’t anything special about it. I thought I wouldn’t mind learning more about them, but if I was cut, I was definitely not going to be disappointed. As for Braves and Tigers, I really felt that I knew my home was not going to be with either of them. They were nice girls, but I could tell they were not for me. There wasn’t that excitement I felt at Red Sox and Twins. I almost hoped I didn’t have to visit either of them again. So there I was waiting to get my invites…it was finally my turn, and I nervously read my invites…
1. Reds
1. Tigers
1. Braves
Crap.
Well I knew that things had not gone well at Red Sox the day before, so I had been preparing myself to get dropped by them, even though I really, really, REALLY hoped they wouldn’t. But I had felt good about Twins, and was sooooo upset not to see them on my list. I wanted to drop out right there, but I decided that since my parties were the last 3 parties of the day, I had about 3 hours to make my decision about what I wanted to do. (I mean if I decided that these houses weren’t for me, was I really going to waste my time going to their parties?)
So after receiving my invites, I went home for a 3 hours break to weigh my options. Of the three I had left I knew that the only one I would consider giving another chance would be the Reds. Although I had a bad experience with them the first round, they had turned it around, and I had liked them a bit more. Still something was missing, so I did not have good feelings about them. As for Tigers and Braves, I just had never felt any kind of connection. They were all nice girls, but I didn’t feel like myself. I felt I had too almost, pull my personality back, because every girl I met seemed very reserved and shy. So although they were nice, what’s the point if I didn’t feel like myself when I was around them? None of the houses I had left even had my excited about recruitment. And since I felt my heart was no longer there, I decided to drop out. Now I know I’m making so many of you cringe by not giving them a chance until the very end. But like I said, I knew where my heart was...Although I still loved the idea of being in a sorority, I had just lost all excitment and passion for it...So I just decided that I would be one of those people that is just not fit for Greek life.
So again, you’re thinking, “Well, that’s a crappy ending…” But still, this is far from the end…
Oh and if you’re wondering about my friend from my Gamma Chi group—although she continued to have a full schedule and get asked back by her favorite houses, she ended up dropping out as well. She said it just wasn’t for her…
