I love recruitment(not like I love sub sandwiches, but close). It was the one week where whether or not you liked all your sisters, you loved them. We all came together this one time a year for the good of Sigma. We laughed together, we cried together. We bitched about the same things together. I tried to explain this feeling to my friends last year, but I would get this feeling inside of me. It's like that feeling you get when fall comes. It just takes over you. You're just excited, nervous, stressed, tired, and happy all in one little sorority girl of a body. You go to class, shove a delicious Springs' sub in your tummy, and go set up for that night's parties.
Then is the moment you have waited for since last year. You have on your outfit, your pearls, badge, and name tag. You are lined up facing a sister that at that moment you love. You begin singing. Then, whether you are ready or not, in come the potential new members. Your teeth are shining and your voice is shaking. You tell them everything you can about Sigma and why you love it. Then you repeat 3 times that night. And for the next two nights. Some nights are funny. Some are emotional. But they all still gave me that feeling of belonging to something.
I am lucky enough to get to attend our recruitment this year. My grand little planned it. I am sure it will be our best recruitment since I planned it 2 years ago. It runs in the family. I am also lucky enough to tell the PNMs what our philanthropy means to me on Friday night.
I have always really loved Sigma. I may not have always loved everyone or everything about it, but I always loved Sigma.
