Hehehe. I love perfume bottles, they're all so pretty. Some of the scents, however, yikes.
Now I'll continue with the story.
I was still a little bummed about being cut from
Queen of Hearts but it wasn't earth-shattering, perhaps just a little disappointment.
Round 3
The dress today is a college shirt.
I was so paranoid of being cut, I was ready to be surgically attached to my phone in case the dreaded Call was made. My roommate's effort to cheer me up was: "You don't want to pay for your friends anyway, they're all snobs."
I did not receive the call, instead I went to the student union to meet with my group to get my invites. I was invited back to only one party:
Jabberwocky
Mad Hatter had cut me. I was a bit sad, but Jabberwocky is still a favorite and had been well liked all through recruitment. I can't guess why
Mad Hatter cut me. Perhaps it was the massive nosebleed I had in class while sitting next to one, maybe I wasn't pretty enough, maybe I wasn't personable enough, perhaps I was on their list but too low, or perhaps I just wasn't a good fit. It doesn't matter. They had invited me to one party, so it wasn't as if they completely hated me. Plus I still had a group that liked me!
Daisy was invited to return to
Mad Hatter and
Jabberwocky.
Victoria was invited back to the maximum, including
Caterpillar.
Angel was invited back to the maximum, including
Jabberwocky and
Caterpillar.
Cherie was invited back to
Mad Hatter and
Cheshire.
Donna K was invited back to
Jabberwocky.
Chloe: I honestly do not remember which groups invited her back.
I went to my party and the
Jabberwocky girl was one I chatted with yesterday. After the party I felt that perhaps being cut from
Mad Hatter wasn't so bad because it made my choice easier and I wasn't so torn. Another girl I talked to had the cutest jewelry. Which made me realize.... I forgot my earrings back in my dorm room!
One girl sat down with me and told me why she loved
Jabberwocky as we colored our philanthropy craft. We joked a bit about our poor artistic skills, particularly when the flower I was coloring turned out brown due to the paper being colored.
The downside was I still felt like I was straining my voice to be heard because it was loud in there.
Too soon the party was over and I went back to the computer and ranked
Jabberwocky as my first and prayed they liked me as much as I liked them.
Cherie withdrew from recruitment after tonight's parties. Our Gamma Chi encouraged her to stay, but she had made up her mind. I felt bad for her, but she didn't want to go back again.
I found out later that
Angel had also withdrew tonight, but for financial reasons.
"Tomorrow" night is Pref and we had to put together our own outfit. I had brought two dresses with me and a few shoes. The day after is, of course, Bid Day, which took a surprising turn when we opened our envelopes...
