We really want you!” the rho chi said and DD3 smiled “I don’t want to jinx anything so no one knows my rankings but me and the sorority that I’ll become a new member of! Since you referred to scorpion as we, I’d assume that you’d see my name on your bid list if I’d ranked you all first! Thank you for checking up with me! You have a blessed day!” DD3 responded, ending the call right there.

OK, your daughter is such an old, wise soul. I don't think I would have remotely known how to handle that call...and I'm still stunned at their "operations." What's so odd is this: wouldn't the Rho Chi already know that she didn't pref them? When I was a rush counselor I seem to recall knowing which houses my group of PNMs went to for pref. If she did know, then this sounds like mind games.

One thing I know from reading your posts is that your daughter is a grounded, mature and kind young woman...and can sure think on her feet too! Wonderful assets with which to build a rewarding life. Whichever house got her is darn lucky.

Thanks for such wonderful story-telling, it was a delight to read.

That’s what I said! I thought that it was strange that the rho chi would ask but DD3 says that she was trying to clarify a mistake with DD3, that DD3 was planning on going scorpion in the end. The rho chi was a bit off the entire week and I heard a lot of odd things about her. My mom and I came to the conclusion that it was a weird manipulation thing, “drop your houses and take a snap bid from scorpion” last ditch effort.

Thank you for the compliments on DD3, I’ll pass them along to her!

Sounds like that or something weird. Again, I'm so sorry she was subjected to such a rough time, I'm impressed that she hung in there - some girls might have given up. Now she can enjoy her just rewards of sisterhood!
