Thank you so much!!! Once I decided to do one I typed it all out in Word and then just kept cutting and pasting! That made it go much faster but in Word it was 10 pages long!

I am loving your story so please keep updating and quickly too!

Did Andrea ever regret not getting a bid to LV, her first choice?

maximus406 · #34 07-08-2007, 02:29 AM

I really don't think that she did. She was interested in LV because her older brother was in a fraternity that was very in cahoots with the LV's. I think she felt like they strung her along through recruitment more because of him than a genuine interest in her. I don't really think that was the case, but this chapter was notorious for inviting back the max girls they could each night even if they had no intent of offering those women a bid. This was before our Panhellenic started using the system based on past years return rates.

Ugh, I hate that. I'm so glad that the three of you wound up all happy together. What a great ending!

I loved this thread! No muss no fuss, just clear concise (yet interesting) writing and the perfect amount of suspense.

Kudos!

Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t a loser in high school but I was in the middle group if you know what I mean. These girls had NEVER said two words to me in high school and now they were acting like they had known me forever and were so excited that I was there because we KNEW each other. I know now that they were just being nice and trying to connect with me but at the time I thought it was a bit fake. Still, I was excited about this house and kept it near the top of my list. Overall, I still thought D&B might be a good match for me so I overlooked the girls I knew from high school.

Just wanted to say that this happened to me and I ended up dropping the chapter because of it. I know these girls were just being nice, but if you really didn't hang out with a PNM in high school don't act like you were their best friend.

I loved this one and how neat your friends came with you, WOW! Great writing and great flow. Loved it. We don't have Delta Zeta but have friends from home that went DZ and love it. Love that pin, really chill. I am glad you got so many opportunities. This one was great. Congrats! LOL
