Unfortunately, I only preferenced two houses out of the three I was invited to. No surprise, I got the dreaded phone call. :-( I was upset and miserable for the whole first weekend of college when I was supposed to be excited and happy. Eventually I convinced myself that I just wasn't the "greek" type, but I always saw the girls in their letters and walked by their houses, and I still wanted to be a part of it all.
Now, 3 semesters later, I am HAPPY to report that I have reluctantly been attending open recruitment events and recently received a bid!
I have to admit, before I when through recruitment my freshman year, I never would have thought about joining this house. But after meeting the women in it, I now know they are all wonderful and I was stupid for listening and believing stereotypes.
Because I just wrote what I did, I won't mention the name of the sorority, but I am 100% confident in my choice and know that I am going to love it. I'm just so excited!!!
To the PNMs - It's been said on here a million times, but I still learned the hard way...don't listen to the stereotypes, make up your own mind. Also, if things don't work out the first time. Don't give up! Take some time off of the Sorority hunt, figure out who you are, and then look again.
To the GreekChat experts - Thanks for your advice over the YEARS (lol). Now, how can I change my user name so that I can go introduce myself in my new sorority's forum?
I'm back!
