Bid Day
All right. So today was bid day. And let me just tell you all that I have been on an emotional roller coaster this entire day. I got my bid, and opened it to find out that I was not a tagalong. I was a trefoil. My heart instantly dropped. I felt deceived by the tagalongs. The girl was so nice to me and told me how much she wanted me to be her sister. I told her how comfortable I felt in her house. I told her how the ceremony made my eyes tear. I made it perfectly clear how much I wanted to be in their house. No such luck. After I opened my bid, I was instantly disappointed. But soon as we were running to all our houses, I perked up. I thought to myself, that I may just fall in love with them. Clearly they saw something that the tagalongs didn't, so maybe this was where I belonged. I got to the house, I was smiling at all the girls and introducing myself to other girls in my pc. But quickly the excitement went away. When we were inside, getting to know each other, I felt bored and out of place. I felt so at home at the tagalongs house that I had just assumed I would end up there. And it felt so weird to be back at the trefoils house. I felt depressed and angry. When bid day ended, I went back to my dorm and cried. I let all the emotions that had been building up through recruitment week just pour out of me. I called my mom and cried to her. I cried to my friend, who happened to get into the tagalongs house. I wanted to die. Then I realized that was absolutely ridiculous and WAY overdramatic and that it hasn't even been a day and I will most likely make a lot of friends in my sorority. I felt so out of place today that it just felt like I would always feel out of place. But that is just such a stupid thing to think. The first day I got to school, I felt awkward and shy, but its only been a week and I've made several good friends! So if anyone else is reading this and has a similar experience, take it from me, it will probably get better. In one day I went from excited and assuming I'd get the house I wanted, to sad, to excited again, then to angry and depressed. But now I feel a lot better. This week has been really stressful on me and I didn't even realize it until today. But I found my sisters and I know I am going to be happy. 
Sooooooo.... without further ado, I would like to officially announce my chapter!!! I won't be revealing my school because I feel like I've shared too much negative information about my specific chapter, and school.
Drum roll please!

Congratulations on Delta Delta Delta!!! Keep up the great attitude. I had a sister who got her number two house, but after all was said and done she couldn't see herself in any other house then the one she ended up in. Everything happens for a reason.
