Bid Night!


The next day was such a long and agonizing wait. I checked my phone every few moments for any missed calls. By a certain time, I was certain that they would have already called and I was safe. However, I still had to worry. What did my bid card say? Was I to be a Full House or a Boy Meets World? With all of my heart, I hoped for Full House.

Our rho gamma asked what sorority we thought she belonged to. Our guess was Sabrina or 7th Heaven. The rho gammas (and Panhellenic council) went up and waited to reveal. Our rho gamma was in the first group which easily was the largest amount. They unzipped their sweatshirts to reveal their Sabrina shirts!

We watched as the other groups unzipped and revealed with tense smiles. We had eagerly awaited for the chance to find out their affiliations, but it wasn't important anymore. We all just wanted to go to the quad to open our bids.

When we walked onto the quad, we were greeted by all four sororities screaming and cheering. I looked over at the Full House girls and the Boy Meets World girls. I had met a lot of great girls in Boy Meets World but my heart was with Full House. I could only hope that they felt the same way. I was preparing myself for the "worst scenario". In any case, I knew that I had received a bid. The only question was where to...

I told myself that if I was to find my bid contained an invitation to join Boy Meets World that I wouldn't allow myself to cry. I knew that I'd be heartbroken but I couldn't, COULDN'T cry. I knew girls who had their heart set on Boy Meets World and the wonderful women in Boy Meets World who loved their sorority. I didn't want them to be hurt by me crying which I knew would be a petty and rude impression to make. In any case, I would join a wonderful sorority. Still, it's hard to be logical when your heart wants something so badly.

We were given our envelopes to place on our forehead. I knew that I would find a bid inside. Where would I run to? Minutes ticked by slowly. This was what I had been waiting for all weekend. This was it...


It was only a few more moments before we could open the bids. We all ripped the envelopes open and read quickly. At first, I couldn't believe it.



BAHAHAH!

I'll stop here for now

Hahaha, I knew that it was cruel to make you wait long! So here it is, my lovely GCers :]

As I was saying...I ripped open my bid in shock! Was this really possible? I couldn't believe it and thought I might be imagining it. I had to read it several times before it even began to sink in....

















Full House cordially invites you to become a member....


Screaming and running over to the Full House girls, I hugged everyone. It didn't matter if I knew them or not. I'd know them sooner or later. I was a Full House. The night went amazingly well, and I'm writing this entry the morning after Bid Night (but posting a few days later). I felt so overjoyed yet content. Everything had worked out. They wanted me, too!


And now, for the revealing...Full House, my new home, is better known as....




Should I be cruel and leave you hanging again?









I am now a proud member of...



















































KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA!



Thanks all for reading! I am super excited to be a KKG. If you haven't been able to figure out which school I attend (thanks to a certain poster, haha), Kappa is still very new here. It's only around 2-2 and a half years old now. Feel free to correct me if I'm slightly in accurate in that. Charter occured in 2007

Despite being the newest, I believe that we are the biggest chapter on campus! Quota was 42 (I believe the Panhell said this year was a record amount with the girls going through recruitment!!). Kappa took 47- the highest new member class on campus! This makes us the largest chapter on campus!

It was amazing seeing some of the founding charter sisters on bid night when they took pictures of their class. It started so small and has grown tremendously over the last two years. Kappa has worked very hard (not saying the other chapters haven't) to achieve everything they've gained over the last few years. These girls are great, and I'm so happy to be a part of them!

Congratulations on joining your new chapter!

Welcome to Kappa!! I hoped it would end that way. Yes, it's one of our newer chapters, but doing very well.

Hurray KKG! Mixing with you guys is always a blast! Your chapter has a ton of awesome girls (not to say that the other sororities don't). Enjoy your 4 years of greek life because it goes by FAST.

Edit: If you do some searching on GC, you'll find some threads relating to your chapter's KKG founding.
