To me thats like saying,
I'm gonna suicide on my preference card because I KNOW they'll make a bid list. = I'm not going to sign a bid intention to this sorority because they'll want me in a week anyway.
I guess none of the above makes any sense. But I wish I was a lucky enough girl to have even one bid, not to mention have my choice at checking out other groups then going with the LR. It takes a confident girl to KNOW that ANNA will still want you during informal.
But Good luck PNM! I'm not in a sisterhood, I just enjoy looking at the bid day pics!

Re: bolding. What the OP is doing is not related to single-listing a chapter on a preference card.
Further, no, not the impression I get at all. On the contrary, the OP is expressing caution and desires more time with the members of ANNA as she wants to be certain she's doing the best for both them AND her. I don't sense any "expectation" on the OP's part. I do sense that she's in a delicate position and is aware of that, and that she's being open and is vulnerable because she knows that there are no guarantees in this process whatsoever.
Your equaling of her not signing a bid meaning that she knows that they will want her anyway is, IMO, not a valid assumption. That's not a given at all in the process. It can actually be quite the opposite. And the OP has expressed that she is aware of this possibility.
Re: your remarks making sense. I was quite confused by your interpretation and explanation. Perhaps it is because you are not in a GLO that the process is confusing to you?
To the OP: put one foot in front of the other and see where your path leads you. I for one hope that you find what you are seeking, wherever that may be.
