Haha.. this is actually a show that I NEVER would have been inclined to watch, except that about a year and a half ago, my ex (who was my boyfriend at the time) turned on Netflix one night and just threw on the first episode of season 1 while we were falling asleep. I was exhausted, but I ended up watching 3 episodes before I finally passed out. I was hooked! And I had plenty of episodes to watch, as I was a few seasons behind. Now I'm caught up and it's so hard to watch an episode and have to wait an entire week for the next!

I'm not sure what it is.. it's just one of those shows that pulls you in.

Just don't read about each season if you plan on watching!

Day 3-Pref Night...I was asked back to 2 out of a max of 2...Opie and Tara

First-Opie- I loved this sorority the first 2 nights and the girls I had talked to but tonight the girl I talked to I just didnt connect with and it felt awkward. We ran out of stuff to say and we couldn't just have an easy flowing conversaition. Their Pref night was more ritualized.


Second- Tara- The first night I wasn't to keen on this one. And as the process went on it warmed up to me. Also I met more people I got along with after the first night. Their Pref night was a little more relaxed than the other's also.


On to ranking. I had a hard time here. I also had a hard time ranking. I liked them both. I had 2 good nights at each and 1 awkward night at both. I am not so keen on either of their Philanthropies but thats fine. So i was a bit confused. I ended up going with my gut from the beginning and just ranking...


1. Opie
2. Tara

Actually, at Unser, we were playing a game and the question I was asked was, "Tell us something about yourself that no one would really know." That is when I said I was 27. And no, I didn't bring up my age at any other party and that was a concern for me, as I will put in the conclusion to my story. I am 27, but everyone I talk to thinks I am 21. Also, I think going back to college and not doing everything my friends are doing (getting married and having kids), I do still relate in some way to the younger people. I also work with alot of younger people, so I am constantly around them.

Bid Day...I had receieved a Bid...

I had a hard time here. First of all, I kind of felt like a fraud in a way. They knew I was a non traditional student but every time they talked to me they always asked what year in school I was, never my age. So I needed to talk to my Pi Chi. I felt like I was in a way lying to the house because my age never came up. I feel and actually look like I am 21 but I am actually 27. My Pi Chi was surprised. But she reassured me that it shouldnt matter my age, obviously they liked me for me and picked me for that reason. It was just hard to get it in my head. I couldnt stop crying haha.


And the Bid was to...

Opie (which is sad by what happened on the show Tuesday, but I picked his name way before I knew that)

a.k.a.

CONGRATS AND WELCOME! I'm proud to have you as a part of my sisterhood! I'm not sure how CMNH didn't seem compelling (perhaps it was the presentation), but let me assure you that is it! You'll grow to love it very soon!

PM me what institution you are at!

Nice story, happy ending!

Isn't a pnm's age/birthday or high school graduation year or other age referencing information on the panhellenic registration form? And aren't recruitment chairs given copies of this information? My point being that sororities surely know a pnm's age before she even walk through the door on day one. Right?
ps:
I love Sons of Anarchy!

I am guessing that she is at a school where you can sign up the day before/day of rush. The schools do not know who is coming through the doors in the same way as at the huge SEC/Big 10 type rushes.

Girls could register the day rush began (convocation) at Alabama.

I wouldn't pretend to be knowledgeable about these details at other SEC or Big 10 schools, though it seems that many have a "late registration."
