Sorority recruitment is not everyone's cup of tea. Honestly, you are trapped in a hot room all day singing (actually screaming) the same songs over and over again. It sounds ridiculous and its hard to explain to anyone who hasn't been through it. You are exhausted all week, but when bid day comes around you feel on top of the world. All your hard work has paid off and you get to add so many new girls into your sorority. You forget all about the week you spent drenched in sweat with aching feet. Here are the thoughts that members experience during the the week of recruitment.
Even though we’ve practiced 5 million times, you will freak out right before the first round.
At first you’ll feel like you have no idea what to say.
Sometimes you will click with a PNM, and you’ll think you found your little.
And sometimes you will have NOTHING in common, but still need to be engaged.
A PNM might try to hug you.
And you have to awkwardly be like
When you’re halfway through “goodbye” you’ll feel like you physically can’t bounce anymore.
But then a Senior looks at you like….
So you keep bouncing and singing
One round we might be totally out of sink
And then the next round will be PERFECT and you’ll be like…
Then your Rush Crush tells you she wants to go your sorority. And suddenly, all the hard work is worth it.So good luck ladies. Play fair and try to stay cool. Have fun and remember syllabus week is right around the corer.
