Okay I'm finally here everyone! Thank you all SO much for all the congrats! You have no idea how much the approval of strangers on the internet means to me But seriously, y'all have been the best audience ever. I want to specially thank sigmagirl2000, NUKaydee, and WCSweet<3 for either writing me recs or finding them, and I want to thank everyone else for cheering me on and reassuring me that I was making the right decision by deciding to go Greek.

I will also reveal that Aquarius was....

Kappa Alpha Theta!!!

I won't be revealing the rest of my codes out of fairness but because I would have been completely happy as a Theta and I figured everyone would want to know I thought I would say.

Friend updates!

Friend Number One had only Theta for preference round and thus became a very happy new Kappa Alpha Theta!

Friend Number Two also only had Theta for preference round and thus also became a very happy new Kappa Alpha Theta! whose sister just graduated from the same chapter last year!

Friend Number Three preffed at Theta and another group and is now a new Kappa Delta!

One of my residents (I'm an RA) is a new ADPi with me, and two other girls from my Pi Chi group are also ADPis!

It was announced today that 761 girls received bids, which means that out of over a 1000 girls who registered many dropped out at some point during the week or were cut from all parties. My Pi Chi group started with 20 girls and 11 of us received bids today. At Clemson our Pi Chis normally bring bids to the dorms, but because a lot of us live off-campus we met in a parking lot and then opened our bids at the same time. I cried when I opened mine and then called my mom and we both cried together! And then I called my best friend and we cried too! And OF COURSE I let GC know! And then I mass-texted my RA staff to tell them the good news! And then I texted my boyfriend! And then I made it my facebook status and my mom posted that she never thought she would ever say that she would be sisters with her daughter but that now she can! I had a lot of important people to update

So hopefully my life will be a little less hectic now that recruitment is finally done, but I am so very happy to have gone through it The mass landslide of friend requests is already starting to come in. When Bid Day pictures get posted I will post them for y'all. Thanks everyone!

Oh, and since recruitment's done I can say it now: I'm from Rhode Island! I figured that was way too much detail for during recruitment but I love talking about where I'm from so I just couldn't keep it in any longer:P

Congratulations! I rarely read entire recruitment stories anymore, but I couldn't help myself with this one. And I'm happy to know you're from Rhode Island (I was curious after you mentioned in another thread that you're from New England). My mom grew up there, I have some cousins who currently live in the state, and I visit often.

Anyway, congrats again! ADPi is wicked lucky to have you

Congratulations,
clemsongirl!!


May you always know the happiness of an azure blue sky, with lions lolling in the violets!

Congratulations to your mother, too!



I have to admit that somehow, it clicked earlier today that you just might be an ADPi legacy, and I was afraid to hope! With your obvious literary talents, we're already SO proud to call you our sister! Please don't be a stranger in the ADPi Forum!

Oh, and everyone's right. I may have been quiet about it, but yes, Rush Crush City

Just a side-note. As you're accepting all those friend requests, take a look and make sure they're actually sisters.
Congratulations!
