I appreciate your kind words. She was not my sister, yet. However, we will see what recruitment has in store for me. If I end up joing the sorority she was a part of, I know she will be proud.
I think it is time I introduce some big players in my recruitment story. Their names have been changed to protect their identity, as well as mine!
Farra: A girl I've had a few classes with. She's in my classification and plans on rushing this year. She pretty much thinks she has a guaranteed bid from 311 or Damone since she hangs out with them so frequently. I like the girl a lot, but I am worried that she is relying too heavily on her friendships - without considering all of the other girls who give their input during MS.
Ada: A member of 311 who has been incredibly supportive of everything I have done on campus. She really wants me to join her house and is pulling for me big-time!
Raine: Another good friend of mine in Damone. I saw Raine a few days ago and told her my intentions of going through recruitment. She gave me a big hug and got incredibly excited. She thinks I will do wonderfully and find my home, even if it is not with her GLO. But she definitely would like to see me with her!
Gemma: A friend who is a member of Alexisonfire. She had to disaffiliate for recruitment purposes since she is a member of Panhellenic. I saw her at the Panhellenic tea and she was estatic to see me! She even had me talk to some of the girls there about my interest in joining a sorority and what it has been like to see the girls on campus for an entire year. I suppose I answered very well because she was beaming, along with the rest of the members in Panhellenic. She also thinks I am going to do great and find a home among our 4 great sororities.
Cadence: One of my best friends. She's helped get me far in many organizaitons and is one of my biggest supporters. I told her a few days ago about my upcoming recruitment and she was beyond thrilled. She's offered some great advice so far and is going to arrange for me to meet more sisters (of her org and others) when she gets back from her vacation.
As you all can see, I have gotten a great deal of encouragement so far. I am not taking this encouragement as any guarantees, or allowing it to go to my head, I am just grateful that I have true friends who believe in me. Actually, I honestly think that I will
not end up in a house, but I am going to give it a shot anyway. If I end up being proven wrong, I will be
estatic- but at least I will not be terribly disappointed if I am correct.
I can already tell that my rush experience is going to be pretty crazy!
