You're right, that was mean. I forgot to mention the AOII presentation! AOII was the fifth round.

She was really intrigued by the presentation and the idea of being a part of something new with a big focus on leadership skills She said it was a blonde southern lady who did the presentation, I think her words were "Someone who's like the head of the whole thing?" I'm thinking it was the International President?

Round Two- Chapter Development

Round Two- Chapter Development

Hypo picked up her invitations and sent me a text saying “Only The Highline, but I’m totally ok with that.”

I received a text after her party that said “I love them soooooooooooooooo much!!!!” She called a few minutes later and gushed and gushed about the women in this chapter. She was talking so fast and was so excited that I couldn’t even take notes on the conversation.


PNMs have to pick up their invitations between noon and 5 pm on Monday for Preference parties that start at 5:30pm. Hypo works from 10-1:00 and has class from 1:10 until 5:25 pm so she’s wearing her pref dress ALL day. She sent her MRC a text asking how she can find out whether she received an invitation and what time her party is if she did. She is hoping she can find out via text or something. Hopefully she’ll get a short break between class and that pref party to freshen up a bit!

Well our International President is blonde and went to school in Kentucky! No to go back to lurking on this thread for the evening

Preference

Preference:

By 4:00 pm, Hypo had emailed two members of Panhellenic and hadn’t heard anything back. Her class was starting in 10 minutes but she decided to make the trek across campus to see if she had an invitation.

Her party with The Highline was scheduled for 6:50 so she had time to get something to eat and primp a bit after wearing her Pref dress all day and trekking around all day in the cold. Mom’s final advice was “This party will be more serious and sentimental and some may cry. Enjoy!”

She sent me a text after signing her MRABA saying "signed my MRABA for The Highline". I asked if she liked pref and she said "yeah, lots. I'll tell you more when I'm allowed to talk about it." She takes her "Strict silence" very seriously.

Bid Day!

I sent her a text at 7:10 pm saying "I'm dying here!" and she sent a text back saying "Why?" Kids!!!!

She then said her group was meeting at 7:30 to get their bids from their MRC (whatever they call their recruitment counselors). I sat by my phone, texting with DoctorD who helped me keep my sanity tonight. (I promise to return the favor in a few years!).

At 7:43 the text came in "Got it ))))"

It is her friendships and connections with various women in The Highline that confirmed her decision to go through recruitment. She had met several of them in band and her new boss is a member of The Highline. There is a GCer who gave her a lot of personalized advice during her college search who is also a member of Highline. When Hypo found out that GCer was a member of The Highline, it confirmed her feelings that her constant connections to members of The Highline were a sign, even before recruitment began. I’m excited that Hypo may get to meet her someday.

I KNEW IT!

I know people in that chapter and the way they describe their sisterhood made me think from the start that was where Hypo would end up.

Congratulations to her!!!!!!!

Congratulations to Hypo!!

I think that I only know of 1 AXO in real life..I'm sure there are some in our Panhel group but I don't always remember their affiliation.

At least you have one letter in common!

One niece I share 1 - another I share 2 -- not sure if I will ever get the 3rd match, lol.
