I did not get my first choice and almost didn't accept my bid. I was upset to be honest and in tears because I thought it meant no one liked me or some crap like that. Now I see it was more about numbers of girls houses take and number of members who knew me vs. knew other girls. I won't lie. It took me a while to come to my senses, but my parents strongly encouraged me to show up at the house and give it a shot. I'm glad I did now. You lose nothing by showing up on bid day even if your bid is to a sorority you didn't plan to join. Show up, try to put on at least a neutral expression (please try not to cry in their faces), and see what the day is like. I suspect you'll be pleasantly surprised and make some friends. I went through rush only wanted a few houses and when I didn't get one, I realized I set myself up for disappointment. I really wish someone had told me to be open minded and kind rather than overly critical.
