There is no true preparation we can make for recruitment week. You can sleep as much as possible the weekend before, you can eat kale and take vitamin C to keep you from getting sick, and you can make sure all of your outfits and decorations are all set, but none of that is guaranteed.
I could not have asked to be president of a better group of girls, they all surprise me every day with their level of commitment to not only the sorority, but their education and to the people around them. Some of them may think being president is impossible, but I would have never guessed I would be president a year ago. I can honestly say that each and every girl I strongly believe could be an amazing president.
With Today being Bid Day, we will be taking new girls under our wings and helping them get comfortable in their new forever home. Only me and one other girl know who we are getting, and looking at the list of young women makes me so proud of how much work we put in this week. I cannot imagine getting a better group of ladies to join us so that one day they can take over our positions when we graduate.
FInally, I want to thank each and every one of my girls, and the alumni who came and stayed through the night with us to help us with everything they could before we had to vote. You girls are so dedicated and amazing, no matter how late we were, our women kept their cool, chatted with each other, danced to music, and happily ate pizza until 1am on a school night, even our women who had to wake up for clinicals at 5am.
Thank you ladies, it would not have been so successful or possible without each and every one of you!
Love,
Your Pres Abbey xoxo
