Bid day is such a wonderful thing. New members, food, picture taking, and so much more. My bid day was today, so as I'm writing this I'm getting so excited about how amazing today went. Bid day is one of the most exciting times for the chapter and the amount of work that goes into it is insane. Because bid day is so amazing, and the TV show Friends is equally as amazing, I decided to put the two together to lay down the basics of bid day.
1. You start by singing the new members in, holding props and dressing for the theme.
2. Your whole chapter is WAY too excited to have new members in the house that you can't contain yourself.
3. You're all helping each other look good because there are SO many picture opportunities.
4. Giving house tours to the new members like...
5. When there is so much food that it's all you can think about.
6. The new members are on their way to the house...
7. But then you force yourself to remember this is fun and everything is going to go as planned.
8. At first the new members don't know how to act, but once they see you so excited they get super excited too.
9. When they say "there's extra food" once bid day is over.
10. Then this is you after...
11. Not knowing how to talk to a new member because you want to impress her but you end up being weird.
12. When you already love the new members so much that you feel like you're they're school mom.
13. When you love your bid day theme so much and go way too hard but so does everyone else so it doesn't matter.
14. When the music is blasting and you can't help to dance to throwback songs with your favorite people (a.k.a. your sisters).
15. When you literally do everything you can to impress the new members and end up embarrassing yourself.
16. At the end of bid day, after a day filled with singing, food, picture taking, mingling, dancing, and more, you're so exhausted and end up looking like this.
