I'll be 100% honest, I was pc 17, had pretty much full cards each round but pref I only had 2. One felt extremely right, I had loved it there from the beginning, had friends in the house, and had a strong connection to their philanthropy. My second one I didn't love or hate, it was just ok. I never even really considered I might get my second choice because my first choice felt so right. But I ended up getting my second choice which made me realize I REALLY didn't want to go there. But I wanted to be in a sorority so badly so I went to bid day, then went back to my dorm and cried and all day the next day because I was so overwhelmed, confused, and just didn't feel connected to the girls. Here I am now and I do have moments when I have those "it all worked out, I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else" moments, but if I'm being 1000% honest, I do feel like I fit in better with my friends in the house that didn't give me a bid. The pros are that it's still worth it to be in any house here, I like the girls in my house, have met awesome girls in my chapter at other schools, and it's been fun to be a part of a sorority. But the cons are I still don't feel very close to many girls in my house, and while I have fun with them, I don't see myself staying in touch with them after college. All this being said PNMs, I think I definitely made it harder for myself. In the first few weeks of the NM period I was so hung up on the other house that I wanted that I didn't fully throw myself into the house I got, so while my pledge class was all growing close I was sort of isolating myself. Do not be like me. Go in wanting the idea of being in a sorority in general, not the idea of being in a certain house. You will have a much better experience that way, because you really do get out of it how much you put in.
