I'm sorry for keeping you guys waiting! I've been doing a lot of running around these past few days.
Bid Day: Anyways, Bid Day was FINALLY here! I had hardly gotten any sleep, because I was just so anxious to receive my bid! We were given a time slot to pick up our bids. We could go pick them up as early as 9:00. However, I had a 2 hour 8:00 am class to suffer through before I could go pick up my bid. Meanwhile, I tried to keep my mind distracted and focus on the lecture, but my mind just kept racing. I just wanted to be a member of
Woody so much. I knew in my heart that it was the right place for me. I loved what the organization as a whole stood for, and the tight bonds all the girls seemed to have.
Ken was a great House, but I just knew it wasn't where I belonged and could not visualize myself being there. Despite trying to convince myself to keep an open mind, I knew that I would be disappointed if I did not receive a bid from
Woody. I just didn't want to be disappointed. It had been such a long process for me that all I wanted was my happy ending.
Finally, my class was over and I pretty much ran to go pick up my bid. My hands were literally shaking as the Rho Gamma handed me the white envelope. She told me that I could open it, and then let her know whether or not I would accept it.
I ripped open the back slab of the envelope, which revealed the crest of the sorority...as soon as I saw that crest...I knew...I didn't even have to pull out the rest of the card..."Yes, yes, yes...yes I'll accept the bid I yelled!!." I had received a bid from
Woody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could not have been anymore thrilled than I was! I was overwhelmed by excitement and happiness! The Rho Gamma's all clapped and congratulated me. I was absolutely beside myself (in fact I still get excited just thinking about it)! That night was bid night celebrations, and all the knew members literally sprinted to their new Houses. It was amazing!
Now I won't keep you guys wondering...after such a long journey it is my absolute delight to announce that I am now a very proud new member of...
DELTA DELTA DELTA!
I had loved this House from the very beginning, and I now love all of my new sisters. I am so proud to be able to call myself a Tri Delt. I guess this was meant to be for me after all. Sure it took me a little longer to find my home...but believe me the wait was well worth it! Thanks for reading everyone!
