A Big Bang Theory Recruitment Story

[scgoldengirl]

It's Thursday and this is where the rubber hits the road. Sorry-I like that expression and had to use it somewhere in this thread. And I'm so glad you guys are enjoying my story.
Anyway, time to go pick up my packet to see where I go for pref night. And it's pretty traumatic in the lobby that morning. Cuts were extremely heavy. We had been warned by our rush counselors to be prepared. My roommate and the rest of the younger girls that I've been hanging with are invited back to only one party for Pref night. They've already made up their minds that they are going to suicide. They really have no choice. I've lucked out this time. I've gotten invites to all 4 parties from Wednesday so it's goodbye to Baawee Kwipke. Nice girls but just never really connected with them. I'm feeling a lot better at this point because I know that I've got 2 really good choices that night, but I would have been honored to wear the letters of any of the 3. I'm pretty sure that I know which one that I want but I tried to keep an open mind.

Mrs. Wolowitz-they put on a great pref night. We had shrimp cocktail and they really rushed those of us who were there. Such sweet girls. But I knew this chapter was hurting for membership. Being there were so few rushees at this party, the ones who were there were treated with such kindness and attention.

Bernadette-beautiful pref night. They were all wearing gorgeous dresses that were made more so by the candlelit room. It looked like a dream. The chapter room was breathtaking and whatever doubts I had before were gone by now. I felt relaxed around these girls. I knew this was the one.

Penny-I'll have to say one thing about this sorority and that is they know how to recruit. They did a great job. They made you feel welcomed in their home and they knew how to rush you without making you feel pressured. I really felt like they did the best job of all of the sororities. When you left this chapter room, you felt good. Such a positive experience.

Signing my bid sheet was probably the easiest thing I did all week. I felt very fortunate to have 3 Pref parties to go to because so many girls had sailed through the first part of the week only to be cut Wednesday night for Prefs. It was a humbling experience but it ended well. Like so many of you have said before. It only takes one. The process will work itself out. I went to sleep Thursday night knowing that I would end up wherever I was meant to be.
