Kara, congratulations to you and along with AXO!!!

What a neat MOM you have!

Is Mom in a Soroity?

Be sure and tell MOM, that it was a very special thing that she did!

Why not ask her to join us on GC! Maybe even AI!

Hey Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am back! Thank you all so much for your support! Seriously I don't think i could have gotten through rush without all of your help and encouragement.
So anyways on bid day we had to wait an extra 45 minutes before we got our bid cards. All of the groups were in different classrooms and when they gave us our cards we had to sit on them and wait 5 minutes before we could open them up. So when they got to the 10 second mark i was like freeking out hoping that it would say my #1 choice. And when I finally got to open it I was so excited because it said ALPHA CHI OMEGA!! The whole room started screaming at that point and I was doing the same thing. However, I felt bad because my two really good friends that I made throughout the week got their 3rd choice so I didn't want to be too happy and make them feel bad. But seriously I was like going crazy inside.
Then we had to all run out to the quad where all the sororities were waiting for us with these huge signs. And we all got these t-shirts. Our theme was like las vegas/Casino. So on the front it says Jackpot with some dice and on the back it has that famous welcome to las vegas sign except it says A Chi O and University of washington bid day 2003! Then we got these 2 huge SUV Limos to take us down greek row to our new home. Where all the frat guys were out filling the streets and side walks to see the new pledges. It was awesome, there was a ton of music playing and a red carpet up to the door and confetti money flying everywhere.
So yeah it was so exciting and I didn't know that we had to move in right away, i was planning on going home first. But i couldn't so I just called my parents and had them bring me up the stuff and I Knew that you guys would be dying to know what happened so I told my mom that she needed to let you all know before you guys go crazy.
I am so happy that I got my first choice and it's cool because we are right on 17th street which is the main greek row at UW. I don't have my list with me right now about which candy is which sorority but I'll try to figure it out and let you guys know.
Thats about it right now. thanks again, you guys are the best, and thanks for sending all the positive vibes, it worked!!
-Kara

Kara,
Y'all had to wait an extra 45 minutes? Now you KNOW that is WRONG! I bet you earned a couple of grey hairs yesterday!

So how do you like your new crib!

I love it! The house is so huge!! I have to sleep on one of the sleeping porch with all the other new members but I think it's kinda cool. Then I also have a room that i share with 3 other girls. 2 of them are sophomores and the other is also a freshman and that is just where we keep our stuff. The cooks are also good. We had a barbeque yesterday and then this morning she made made to order omlettes for us. I love them soooooo much!!!

Ok I just sat and figured out which house was which candy and here's how it goes....
Mr. Goodbar- Alpha Delta Pi
Milkyway- APhi
Hersheys- Alpha Xi Delta
Twix- Chi O
3 Musketeers- Tri delts
M&M's- Delta Gamma
Skittles- Delta Zeta
Reeses- Gamma Phi Beta
Jolly Rancher- Kappa alpha theta
Crunch- Kappa delta
Starburst- Kappa Kappa Gamma
Snickers- Pi Beta Phi
Almond Joy- Sigma Kappa
Payday- Zeta Tau Alpha
Alpha Gamma delta- whatever candy i left out, i forgot.

Lemonheads- ALPHA CHI OMEGA!!!!!!!!!!


Oh yeah and no my mom was not in a sorority, I have just been telling her about you guys and i was like mom you have got to let all my GC friends know what happened! She is awesome!

Okay had to know... and it was my favorite candy bar... AGD was Kit Kat. I don't know how you girls from the big greek schools do it... I know that I won't want to have to narrow my choices down to 8.

Congrats and I'm glad you found your home.

I was wondering how this works. Did you have a dorm assignment before rush? What happens if a girl does not recieve a bid? I personally think that is awesome that you get to live in the house during pledging!
